Without me:
~The dogs would never get fed. Ok, maybe once a week.
~The toilet paper would never get replaced.
~There would be no cleaning items in the house. Once what was there got used up, there would be no more “magical” replacements.
~My boys would have major health issues for eating “whatever” they found around or could buy in bulk at CostCo. Game Stop doesn’t sell food, so they’d be in trouble.
~The dogs would never get bathed, to the vet, or their nails trimmed.
~My son would never get bathed, to the dr, or his nails trimmed.
~Our yard would look like a jungle.
~My boys would still not have a home e-mail account.
~No one would ever get any kind of card, or photo of the family.
~Our walls would be white and empty.
~No one would find anything… EVER!
~The boys would be hours late… if they remembered what they were going to go to at all.
~We’d over-pay for insurance, repairs, phone and electric.
~Everyone’s underwear would just be an elastic band.

Without My Husband:
~I wouldn’t have a house, clothes or food, but my cardboard box would be tidy!
~I wouldn’t be able to shop for anything… ever. Including the toilet paper I replace and the cleaning products I stock up on.
~I could never reach that one itchy spot in the middle of my back.
~I would have to make my own cup of coffee every day.
~I would be very lonely as I ate my Top Ramen for dinner (cause that’s all I could afford to eat).
~I would never finish a sentence because I’d forget the name of something and no one would be there to know what I was talking about and come up with it for me (he jumps in and saves the day all the time like that!)
~My son would hate me (cause I’m not the fun one).
~There’d be no one to kill the scary bugs for me or hold my hand during a spooky movie.
~I wouldn’t have a car, let alone a nice car.
~I would have to work a full time job like everyone else and have no time for art, or blogging!

Without My Son:
~We would blow all our money on travel, good wine, clothes, cars… oh wait! That’s not so bad!
~We would have more dogs and a bigger house.
~We would both work full time and I’d resent my husband for it.
~We would fight a lot.
~We would forget what it’s like to be young and fresh and see the world with new eyes.
~We would forget how to be silly with each other.
~We wouldn’t be nearly as bonded as we are.
~We would feel just a little empty.
~We’d be much more shallow and materialistic.
~I wouldn’t know anything about Lord of the Rings or Star Wars or the difference between an Xbox and a Wii. Nor would I care!
~I wouldn’t be as strong as I am today.
~I wouldn’t be a fighting mother bear.
~I wouldn’t be me.

I thank the universe every day for my family. Without each other, we would be so much less. That’s what a good family, a good relationship should do… make you MORE than you would be on your own. To teach each other important lessons in life. Children make wonderful teachers, but if you open up, so does your partner!
