A Happy Heart

So yesterday I talked about things I do when my husband is gone. And I learned that pretty much everyone pees with the door open when they are home alone. So I don't feel quite as weird.

But as I sat there last night on night #2 of being home without him, I thought of all the reasons I love living with a man my husband.

1. He can always make me laugh. Whether by calling me a goofy nickname (his favorite is Mogador). Sending me goofy pictures or videos. Or even just sitting at his computer completely ignoring me, but giggling at something he is watching, which in turn makes me giggle.

I know I just used this photo. But it's too hilarious and perfect not to reuse.

2. He kills bugs. For the most part, I try not to be a screamy, squeamish girl around bugs. But holy shit, I hate spiders. Or other things with lots of legs. Or bats in my bathroom. 

3. Even over his snoring and twitchy legs in bed, I sleep oh so much better when he is lying next to me. On chilly evenings like last night, having a built in furnace in bed is pretty nice. Plus it's really just a security thing. I can wake up in the middle of the night and know he is there, and fall back asleep so much easier than when he is not. 

4. I cook. He cleans. Ladies, I lucked out in this one. It might not be his favorite thing in the world- but he doesn't mind (or at least complain about) cleaning up after dinner. I hate it. Match made in heaven.

5. He gets along with my friends. Being in a couple for so long- it's pretty awesome when your significant other gets along with your friends; old and new. We each have our separate friends, but the fact that he gets along with my friends so well make my heart happy.

While these are only 5 reasons I love him, there are so so many more. I'm happy to not have to spend another night without him!
