Wedded Wednesday--We Are Family


Wedded Wednesday is a collaboration
of married bloggers sharing their inspirations,
anecdotes, struggles and thoughts regarding
the amazing union of two separate people, as one.
There has been a lot of we in "family" lately. This past weekend my step-daughter graduated from high school. Needless to say there were a whole bunch of relates in the house. I come from a small family, my husband does not. Even though we have been together several years, all those people still sometimes still overwhelm me. As I looked around the room, I realize this is my family now. When I married Mr. J, I not only obtained the title of wife, but also of daughter-in-law, aunt, great-aunt, etc. I kinda like the new titles and am trying to fit into each of them. Each large family function, I get more comfortable. More comfortable I get, the happier Mr. J is. In a family we may not always be able to choose who our family is, but I am so happy that Mr. J chose me to be apart of his.

It would be filled with antiques and have a large sitting area. It would be shabby chic . 6.   If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be        on a porch on a beach house listening to the waves roll in and the feeling the sun rise on my face . 7.   The longest sleep I've ever had was    I a...

Wedded Wednesday: Wife +Sick Hubby =Medical Degree

I posted  last week about my husband being sick. Even though he is feeling better, he went to his doctor to make sure everything was OK. His doctor in-turn referred him to a specialist, to make sure as well. When I asked him what was the specialist going to do, he said " I do not know. Probably just check me out."  That did not sit well with me, so I decided that I needed to attend the appointment with him. We attended the appointment. He signed in at the front desk and the receptionist asked for the paperwork sent. He of course looked at me......especially since I was the one who fill out the paperwork. I am not sure why I filled out his paperwork, probably because he asked me to, but I never have him fill out my medical paperwork. I digress. We were escorted back to the exam room. The nurse was really nice. As she began to ask for some of the medical information, I found myself answering more of the questions than he was. Maybe I should have been quiet. The doctor eventua...
