Yes, just a few pictures. Lately, everyone has been asking me, "so how's married life?". It's really hard to sum up in just a few words. A few things I know for sure: I absolutely love coming home every day and getting to spend time with my best friend. James is the perfect match for me because he is so enthusiastic and encouraging about everything. We have been learning a lot about each other. You would think after dating for three years before getting married, we would know pretty much all there is to know, but living together has opened our eyes to many, many more things we didn't previous know. Since I love lists, here is one of things we have been learning about each other:
Things I have learned about JRO:
1. He loves a good thunderstorm
2. He likes his undershirts and t-shirts folded in two different ways, neither of which are the way I fold shirts
3. He likes to listen to music when hes getting ready for work—I’ve never experienced this one, but I get home from work a lot and the ipod player is all set up. I wonder if he sings in the shower?
4. He will always say yes if I suggest we go to yoforia
5. He stays up LATE- I’m talkin 11:30/12 people!
6. He likes Kroger brand Peanut Butter...okay so he likes Kroger brand everything.
7. He loves a good project, fixing things, mowing the yard, blowing the driveway, building things, taking apart locks to figure out how they work and then putting them back together, he loves DOING
Things JRO has learned about me:
1. I like to watch the Today Show in the morning while getting ready for work, and while he is still sleeping (I get up at 6:45, he gets up at 7:45)
2. I like to be in bed by 9:45/10:00.
3. I exaggerate on what time it is (ex: Clock says, 9:15. “Babe, we better get in bed! It’s almost ten!”)
4. I’m still learning how to cook, and even if he offers to help, I like to do it all myself because I enjoy doing things for him
5. I get cranky when I’m hungry (okay, so he already knew this, but he is experiencing it more frequently now that we are living together)
6. I procrastinate on working out
7. I highly dislike when there are droplets of water or pieces of hair on the bathroom countertops and am constantly wiping them down
8. I like to grocery shop at publix because it is clean and all the shelves are organized
9. I drink a green monster for breakfast every morning and while its really just a smoothie with spinach and flax seed oil, I insist on calling them green monsters (just because it sounds cooler….James still calls them smoothies....)
10. I get stressed out over little things sometimes, but I can just as easily be hit with a giggle attack and just think everything is hilarious- am I bipolar?
