MUAHHHH Love you baby!

First let me just say it is WAY tooo easy to do a BITCHY post.... to tell y'all what bugs me & who is driving me nuts.....

But this morning I woke up with a smile on my face... & I thought I would tell you why...



Once a month Hubby & I will have a fight about Who does what... Who does more....

These DISAGREEMENTS ...begin when hubby makes the mistake of coming home & asking
"So honey, what did you DO all day?" That is ENOUGH to say "Game ON baby, lets compare notes..."

Yesterday, I had a day off & must confess did pretty much NOTHING around the house....

hubby come home after a 14 hour work day... house was NOT tidy....dinner, still all over the kitchen, with my big rump parked on the couch watching GOSSIP GIRL....Shhhhhhhhh.... ( NO talking while it is on....)

despite everything, hubby was an ABSOLUTE doll...didn't say a negative word, didn't ask me what I did all day...just let me be & watched the end of Gossip Girl with me.....

I just wanted to say PUBLICLY..Hubby, YOU ROCK!
& today I will make up for everything I didn't do yesterday beause you didn't BUG me!

My children...ADORABLE... ok, maybe not adorable... but very good....
Dane went with me to the dentist & was a very polite young man... everyone commented on what a nice boy he was...(yes he is)... Eva-no whining... the kids got along & played well together ....

LOVE IT! Little things mean a lot... & I appreciate how nice my family was yesterday
for NO REASON.....

thanks for letting mommy recharge her batteries.... (now I don't have to run away...: ) )
MUAH...love y'all

Great post. That says a lot about how to handle a spouse. Quit nagging. I happen to nag when I'm tired and feel like no one's helping me around the house. Glad hubby let you relax, and you feel more energetic.

When husbands let nature take its course it always works out better for them in the end. I'm not sure why more men haven't figured that out.

YOu def have a keeper there! :)

Oh, a day of rest. What a gift! Hubbies and kids come through every once in a while in the biggest way.

I lived in Germany for six years, way up in the north, Kiel. Where do you live in Norway?

That is one great guy you have there. Maybe he could give my guy a few lessons in letting a girl catch up on very important TV viewing such as Gossip Girl.

How else are we to go forward in life without it?

That's romance in my book. When husbands get that sometimes we just gotta do what we gotta do.

It's the little things isn't it?! I need my husband to read this!!!

(And, NO, I did not stop following you!! I have no idea what the hell is going on. All of a sudden I was not following ANYBODY. So bizarre. AND my blog keeps disappearing. Like, totally gone. And then it's back. Blogger is going to drive me insane.)

I must have the smartest husband on the planet. He has never utterred the words, "What have you been doing all day?" And really, I mean never. Though I am confident he has thought it.

The kids on the other hand, are another story all together. I am so glad you had such an awesome recharge day.

First time visitor to your blog. I loved this post.

Ah, the fight at home about who does more. LOL. Been there done that (and it still happens).

I'm a good husband and I always come through. My wife travels a lot for work, so it is unbalanced, but I'm OK with it!

Will visit back! Thanks.

Some days, at least once a week, we need to do NOTHING!! Glad you got to sit & relax - and not even get nagged about it! Mr.R knows when he comes home and the house is a mess and dishes fill the sink, and he sees the bottle of wine already opened that it's been a doozy of a day and he best not say a word about it! :)

Hey you... hungry butt!

Hey you, Hungry butt!!!! .... First thought that played through my mind as I stood behind the woman in the GREY SWEATPANTS in line at the post office..... Hungry Butt is what my little sister & her friends say when referring to what in my day, was called a WEDGIE ..... "Hungry Butt" just fit the large bottom , which was gobbling its underwear in front of me.... Ugh.... the sight of her butt was burning into my mind as I waited in the ridiculously SLOW line at the post office.... No longer able to stand the site... I put my boxes down... and did the neighborly thing.... I pulled her underwear out of her butt.... You should have seen the SHOCK & SURPRISE on her face ... Ummm , OK I didn't do that... I tapped her on her shoulder & in my best AMERICAN accent announced to her & the rest of the post office... that she had the picture perfect HUNGRY BUTT... cause it was gobbling everything in sight... K... I didn't do that either... I just stood

A visit to the ICE AGE....

Sunday... FUN-DAY, Another family day..... Because we had such nice weather, (never knowing how long it will last) we decided to take another family hike.... (2.5 hours....) around the be ach. It is funny, each week, each hike, I see changes in our family....less whining (on my part) & more time learning, enjoying our time together....Bjørn who usually gets irritated with all of my picture taking, is stopping to find things to take pictures of...appreciating colors, nature etc. Dane is less squeamish...touching & picking up all of sorts of things he finds along the hike.... Today we learned about Jettegryter or "Stone Pots" these huge rock formations from the ICE AGE .... pretty cool... these holes are formed by pebbles/gravel being aggitated by water, over thousand of years.... WOW..The holes on our local beach date back to 15,000 years.... the kids had a blast.... & wanted to stay much long
