L is for Love (So Sappy Edition)

I love my husband! I know that's the way it should be. I'm not reinventing the wheel here. But I am struck each day anew with this feeling. I love him. Sure, he drives me nuts, but damned if I don't keep coming back every time. I had more examples or why and what and all, but I've had a big day, my allergies are bad and I'm sleepy, so suffice it to say, he's the best.

Here's what we did today because I like the recap. No, actually I hate the recap, but Zach loves it, so I do it for him.

We woke up at 10:20 AM because the postlady rang the doorbell so that we could sign for some more pictures from our wedding. You can always go here and look at the other ones and now we have these "hard copies" which I think have associated cds, so perhaps they will exist in digital format soon too. For not having a photographer we certainly have an s-load of pictures and my motto has always been "quantity over quality". Anyway, we woke up and then we looked at pictures for a bit. Then we got up and made fajitas because nothing says "breakfast" like fajitas. Then we went to Kay Jewelers and exchanged Zach's yellow gold "loaner ring" (quotes are unnecessary, but I love them) and sent his new white gold ring to be sized. So some lucky person out there is going to one day buy a wedding ring that was blessed for marriage to me. Won't that be special?

After Kay's, which I found and parked at immediately even though you can't see it from the outside of the mall, because I AM AWESOME, this is a long sentence and it's getting confusing, let's stop it here. After Kay's we went to the used video game store. Z scored some games (Madden '03, some baseball game, Twisted Metal 3, blah blah) and we got Jeopardy! We played one game so far. Sadly, the computer won. But that guy's a jerk and we're going to take him down next time. Then we went grocery shopping because we are an exciting couple. We didn't even fight although one of us (I'm not saying which one, you can draw your own conclusions) got a little snippy at the deli counter.

Then the real fun began. We got home, unpacked and put away the groceries and began our chores. Z dusted and vacuumed, I cleaned the bathrooms, the bathroom floor upstairs and we started laundry. We had some dinner and started watching the Steelers game. Then I did a million dishes, baked another pie and some more muffins, made pesto salad and bruscetta for tomorrow's planned picnic and did a million more dishes. We finished a movie and finished and put away the laundry and Zach is apparently watching The Cosby Show while I type this.

I have to go though because he needs to check the after game information for the Steelers because he's hardcore. That's fine. I'm beat. I think that we both just have allergies and there is something horrible happening in Iowa (always, always there is something horrible happening here), but we might be sick. Oh, yeah, that's right. We might have mad cow disease or perhaps some e. coli poisoning. I don't want to talk about why that might be. Some of us in the camp say that's not going to happen, others think it will. Only time will tell. It's probably allergies though because we are pretty hardy folk. Knock on wood. Ok. I've got to go now. I'm getting "the look".

Later, gators.

I love it.

by the way Rose, you can't blame it on Zach. We know you are all about the recap.
