If it's Love...

It's been a few months since I've published in this blog... Life has been crazy... between work and house and kids and school... I should be reading school work now for this semester but my IPad decided it was time to do some major upgrade and I decided to take this quiet moment to talk about the last couple of weeks/months...


"While everybody else is getting out of bed I’m usually getting in it
I’m not in it to win it
And there’s a thousand ways you can skin it
My feet have been on the floor
Flat like an idle singer
Remember winger
I digress
I confess you are the best thing in my life
But I’m afraid when I hear stories
About a husband and wife
There’s no happy endings
No Henry Lee
But you are the greatest thing about me"....

Our schedules are crazy... we fight to have a week a month together... and when we do we throw all the happiness and appreciation for each other into those moments spent... neither taking the other for granted... we talk in each others love languages (food/presents/more food/junkin)...

"Took a loan on a house I own
Can’t be a queen bee without a bee throne
I wanna buy ya everything
Except cologne
’cause it’s poison
We can travel to Spain where the rain falls
Mainly on the plain side and sing
’cause it is we can laugh we can sing
Have ten kids and give them everything (author edit-NO... 10 grandkids maybe)
Hold our cell phones up in the air
And just be glad we made it here alive
On a spinning ball in the middle of space
I love you from your toes to your face...
"


We get each other... from his ever growing frog collection to my constant additions to the garden... to the chandeliers and lights we have reworked together to just sitting down at the end of the day having a drink in comfortable companionship.

The kids adore him.  CJ talks non stop with him all the time making Bill guffaw with his wit... Katie silently comes in and hugs him and walks out with a bowl of ice cream he's insured is there for her.  She's tried to get him to deliver food to her room but she doesn't have him quite that wrapped around her finger...  yet....

 "If it’s love
And we decide that it’s forever
No one else could do it better
If it’s love
And we’re two birds of a feather
Then the rest is just whenever
And if I’m addicted to loving you
And you’re addicted to my love too
We can be them two birds of a feather
That flock together
Love, love
Got to have something to keep us together
Love, Love
That’s enough for me"


 Two birds of a feather...  we get each other...  my family loves him... they 'get' him too... At my cousins wedding last week I got to see another cousin that I haven't seen in WAYYYY too long... by the end of the night she's screaming "I LOVE THIS MAN" to me... It may partly have been the tequila but I told her how dad and I said Bill reminded us of Bud, her father, my uncle I lost a few months ago... and she got it. 

Speaking of my cousins wedding... that's the first time Bill and I got to actually go away together.  Travel somewhere together... he's blessedly easy to travel with... and anyone in my industry knows how important it is to have someone who is low maintenance to travel with... High maintenance travel partners need not apply...

We have fun together... he does crazy shit that makes me giggle...  He doesn't take himself too seriously... those that saw the feather trump hair picture... you know what I mean...

When we take on a project or an idea for a project together... I blink and it's done... it's up and assembled before I can say a word... Once we get our garage organized with the tools he needs for our business he's going to be a force to be reckoned with...  He only squirms on some of the projects... usually the loading part of the project... like the calla lilies I dug from a friends garden... "Ragle you are KILLING MEEEEEEEEE".... as he's taking the 3rd load to my ever sinking with weight Jeep...

"You can move in
I won’t ask where you’ve been
’cause everybody has a past
When we’re older
We’ll do it all over again
When everybody else is getting out of bed
I’m usually getting in it
I’m not in it to win it
I’m in it for you
"



 


Life is simply good...  We're in it for each other... for those who doubted us from our quick decisions made early on in our relationship...  this is for you...


 For Bill, my love... since I don't have the big blue thumb in blogger... you'll understand this is for you...
