Today has been super hard for me. I'm tired and really I don't want to be nice to my husband tonight. I've worked all day and he's enjoyed the day at home. I WILL suck it up and say a few extra prayers that I put my nice hat on and do my duties as a wife. He goes to work tomorrow and I'll miss being nice then. So, I'm letting it all go right now and starting fresh because really Brad and I are a perfect fit. :)
I know it's hard to do anything when we're tired. I think we should have an aresonal of little easy things to have when this occurs. A candy bar, sit on the couch & rub his feet, sitting & talking, let him have control of the tv so u can fall asleep & not care. And sometimes we do need to escape & rest & rejuvinate. I kmow it would benifit me if I chose the right words for this. Such as, "Honey, I know you are tired too, but I would really appreciate if I could take a bath & relax right now." Hopefully he says, yes, & you can thank him for his generosity. Because if I were to state that I was tired…he'd come right back with, "you're tired? I'm really tired!" It's always a competition for him. I can't figure out why, but it is. And it ticks me off! So if I am mindful of my words, it really helps.
