Supporting Each Other


This house hunting business is work. Who said it is easy needs to be hunted and drugged down. There is nothing easy about making a 30 year decision on something. There are so many ends and outs that I am so happy to have a right mind and got a realtor that I can trust and out of nowhere she is becoming a good friend to the family. Spiritual minds are alike; because she claimed that we will find my home and be done. So far, the home process is still in the works. The thing that I admire the most is my husband in the process. He is like whatever makes you happy makes me happy. Also, I became nervous and stressed at one point and he held me and instantly I felt calm and secure. I love me some him, I really do. The greatest survival of a relationship is being able to fall in love with the same person over and over again. I truly believe that. A person changes every day and it’s your friendship and love that allows you to fall in love with the new you or person. Today, I had a talk with my senior, a real heart to heart. I clearly advised that my home comes first not this job. I will never get to the point where this job consumes me and I lose my family. My family comes first. My husband will get his time and that is non-negotiable. It’s not that we are not dedicated to our jobs but I am more dedicated to my marriage. He understood and seen where I was coming home. He said that he loves that I stand my ground and how elaquite that I speak of my husband. I was like more of us need to. A lot of marriages will be in better shape. What are your thoughts?

Until next time,

NEW YEAR NEW THINGS TO DO


Well it’s been a hot minute since I have taken the time to write a blog. I been sleep deprived and killing myself in the gym and just haven’t had the time to sit down and unwind and write out my thoughts. So what do we have going on right now? Umm, AN ACTIVE TODDLER. My goodness, the child is every where and into everything. She clearly is ruling the house to a certain degree. The married life has been going well, no issues. I am a firm believer in when you sweep the mess out your house and the front door that life is grand. We have been drama free almost 3 years and counting. We also have been actively house searching. That’s right we have been looking for the next royal palace. I have enlisted in the help of a realtor. I must say I am excited and we will go house shopping this weekend. I am ready to embark on the new chapter in our lives.
One thing I want to leave you with. In a marriage you must be a good partner and spouse. Learn to take things to the meeting table and be an active listener and communicator. Hear what the problem is and be a team to fix the problem. Just remember you might not like what you hear but it is something that needed to be heard.

Until next time,
