For Better or Worse

My husband loves to open things. He opens the cabinets, the pantry, the bath room door but for some reason he never CLOSES them. I have, after 12 years, come to accept that EVERY cabinet door in the kitchen is open after he goes to work. I don't mind really since he is the one who puts away the dishes. I really prefer the help and I can always go behind him and close them all once he leaves.

But now he has gotten into the habit of leaving the toilet seat up! Now this is just UNACCEPTABLE.  He never did this before but for the last month he just "forgets" to put the seat down. He even went as far as to say "Well you're in there just put it down." AYI ya YAI! Is this some kind of passive agressive act? I mean if it is what would he be secretly trying to say......."Fall in honey, Fall in". That is just absurd.

I worked out today and joined the gym. If I could have walked my 3 miles with a butt cheek in each hand I would have, they hurt.  I actually wonder what people would have thought. "Look that woman is just barely holding it together" Well they would probably have been right.  I swear I looked at that clock counting down my work out minutes at 12:56 then 12:32 then 12: 25.........HOLY CRAMOLY........I can't believe I still have 12 minutes left......12:13, 12:07 then I just watched it tick down to make sure it wasn't just starting over at 12 every minute. It finally ended 1 hour on the treadmill and not one grab for my cheeks. A successful day if I do say so myself. I hit the weights, spilled my water and called it a day. WOO-HOO!

  1. Get an iPod shuffle...it helps to have some "butt-kicking" music to get you moving and help the minutes count down faster. I know how you are about music (and no, you cannot have "What's Up?" by 4 Non Blondes repeating over and over and over...it will push you over the edge), so I would be happy to suggest some music...and I know your other friends would happily chime in too!
