20140719 SoC Saturday This post is part of SoCS: http://lindaghill.wordpress.com/2014/07/18/the-friday-reminder-and-prompt-for-socs-july-1914/ The prompt for this Stream of Consciousness Saturday is ‘side’.
I can’t decide which way to go. There are so many words and sayings that use the word side: sidecar, an aside, sideboard, sidebar, sideburns,ย side dish, and so many more. But looking to my side, I realized the most important side.
I’ve talked about my fibro and exhaustion. Through it all the man at my side, my husband, has been the best things that has happened to me. He takes care me so sweetly, every day, whether I am hurting or not. At my worst he cooks my food and cleans. At my best he is my best friend, someone who laughs with me and watches even the most ‘girly’ shows with me.
We are partners in this life and have so much in common, reading and writing at the top of the list. I am so lucky! How many people can say that? As I say all this you might think we are newly weds. Nope. We have been together for about twenty years, married for a decade.
Aside from that what more does my consciousness want to go? I seem to have gotten sidetracked. That is because my hubby and I are watching Hemlock Grove. Wow. What a show! Hey, that was merely a sidelight. I hope to do this more often. This was such a good day for me. I look forward, and to my side, to more of them!
What a wonderful post. So glad you have a good partner at your side :-). I did some really bad partner choices in my life but now am with the best husband in the world … be-sides yours of course :-). Take care and thanks for sharing
Thank you for your comment, and for following my blog. I followed back. ๐ This is my husband’s four marriage and my second, but we both learned a lot from our experiences and bring all those lessons to US. Glad you’ve finally reach the best partner for yourself!
Cheers, and glad to meet you. Looking forward to getting to know you! ๐
Nice to meet you too ๐ Yes, we feel the same. That we learned from all our earlier partnerships. It makes you a lot more relaxed with some things I find that would have driven me mad before. Feelings mutual about getting to know you. Have a wonderful day (or evening as it is here ๐ )
Nice post ๐ I agree too, my Husband is my greatest supporter…it makes everything a little easier.
Thank you! Aren’t we the luckiest people? ๐
Definitely! He’s my midlife do-over and I’m his. Sometimes having a last kick at the can makes the difference.
I agree! ๐
