so, today is a blah day.

not because it's been a hard day or because it's monday,

but because i don't feel good.

today i woke up extra early,

with achy hips, a headache

&

a slight sore throat.

now most would say,

'oh, get over it, you're fine,

it's just a little pain, blah, blah blah'

but for me it's much more.

you see, most days i'm in some sort of pain.

never anything to substantail, 

but there is always something...

and i live for days where i just feel 'normal'.

(and trust me it doesn't happen very often, if ever at all)

but i am thankful...

well, obviously to be alive, i won't take that for granted

but i'm really thankful for 

this guy!

this guy, he gets me, 

especially when no one else does.

he lets me complain...

even though i try not to always say,

'hunnybunnies, i have a headache,

hunny, my stomach hurts

hunny, i'm soooooo freakin tired'

he knows this,

and knows that this is an everyday struggle

for me in one form or another.

so he helps me.

he helps by picking up the kids from daycare if i need a one day break.

he brings me water and medicine into bed.

he lets me have 'me' time, even if it is just me sleeping an extra couple of hours on the weekend

or letting me go to dance 2 nights a week, so that i can get away 

and try to feel better and just be out of the house.

i loves him

and not just LOVES him, but i

LOVE LOVES him.

this dude,

he gets me 

when no one else does or when no one else wants too,

he's there for me and makes me feel better

even if i'm a mean old hag when i don't 

REALLY

feel good.

he lets me be me

and understands that i have a lot of bad days

but we try to make the best of them,

and when i'm having a 

good 

day it makes both of us appreciate those even more.

so, today is a blah day,

a day where i feel extra icky...

(and probably getting sick because of my 3 year old)

but i have my man and that's all that matters.

he makes/will make me feel better

and i can't wait until 9 o'clock tonight 

when i get home from dance

and can sit down and watch the bachelor with him...

(because he loves me that much)

because that is 'our' time 

(and the time that will make me 'feel better')

and i wouldn't trade it for anything.
