The saying of happy wife happy life is so true but so is the saying, busy life happy wife. I am an extremely busy wife. I work full time, support my husband, rung a blog, and still try to be an amazing friend and sister.
While I am a busy wife, I have to admit I am an awful housewife. I am terrible at keeping a clean home. My husband has to make a chore list for me on my days off so that I will clean and tidy up the house. I have visions of a perfectly clean and organized home but after working on my feet 8-10 hours a day 5 days a week I am not up to it when I get home. Thats an awful excuse I know, but it is who I am. I was raised to be in a clean room, a clean house. It was something that my mother and my grandfather prided themselves on, and I think as I became an adult and had my own place I have disregarded that. I don't want to be like this forever but this is the way that I am for now. My husband loves me regardless, of my cleanliness.
So while I am not clean, and I am busy I am still a happy wife. My husband keeps me grounded, he keeps me level headed. I am less than a month out from getting to go back to California to see family and rather than get worked up about it I am finding other things to be excited about. I got new bathing suits and I plan on enjoying our apartment complex pools, I have found reading again and I am so excited about it, and I am going to get back into working out. My husband is fortunate to be going back to California a couple weeks before me to see our families and friends. Summer is turning out to be a good thing for us. This is my first summer away from friends and family, and I plan to make it amazing. We have a trip to Myrtle Beach, SC coming up in August too.
What makes you a happy wife, girlfriend or partner?
If you would have asked me when I was younger I would say it was something tangible, some materialistic. Now I would say what makes me a happy wife is seeing the ones I love happy and healthy. My friends, family, etc. If they are all succeeding in life, than I know my time will come.
