Drink The Poison Lightly |
Kari. 25. Married. I'm a stay at home wife, who needs to find a job. I have 2 dogs 1 cat and 0 kids. I shop too often, and watch too much TV. I love music but don't get to listen to it too often. I support my Troops whole heartedly and believe there is nothing wrong with Same Sex Marriage. I hate Feet, Mushrooms, Beer, and Seafood. I love Cupcakes, Giraffes, Watermelon and Crowns. |
Looking through my Tumblr people probably think I have a horrible marriage. I have talked about it a time or two on here before. I realize that I complain about him often, but trust me when I say this, that is not all he is. It’s hard to not write about it when he does something to irritate or hurt me, because I need to vent, and I can’t vent to him about him. I decided today to take a little time to write about a good thing he did.
I cried myself to sleep last night. I felt so bad about it, and I tried to hide it, but I kept him awake. My poor husband gets up at 4:30am, works HARD all day, comes home at about 7pm, and tries to go to bed around 9. Last night we were in bed at 9. He even mentioned how nice it felt to know he was going to get more than the 5 hours of sleep he usually gets. Enter Crybaby Kari…
I cried. I’m not sure if he had fallen asleep yet or not, but he didn’t stay asleep if he had. He stayed up with me. He cuddled me. He played with my hair. He doesn’t try to talk to me, doesn’t ask whats wrong ever, doesn’t tell me it’s going to be ok, or any of that stuff. I wish he did sometimes, but compared to what he does other times [nothing] what he did last night, was enough.
We went to bed at 9, and I still kept him up until 11. The last thing I said before we went to sleep was “I didn’t mean to keep you up all night.” He wasn’t mad. He kissed me on the forehead and hugged me tighter. I love him. We may fight and have fairly different views on what a good marriage is, but he’s there when I need him. He takes care of me infinitely more than I ever thought someone would. There are still, and probably always will be, things I wish would change about us, but if those never happen, I’ll still be happy.
I love my husband with my whole heart. I’ve loved him since the day I met him. Since the day he left his hand on my back a little longer than normal while playing freeze tag in the street in front of my house. I loved him when we were broken up for a year and a half. I’ve always loved him and I always will. <3
