I am lucky.....

Sometimes I have to remember that I am a lucky woman, despite all the turmoil I seem to blog about. My husband does not beat me, he does not cheat on me, he is not addicted to drugs, and he is great with the kids. That can't be said about a large percentage of men. My life is pretty mundane and routine which is just the way I like it. I have good karma and bad things seem to stay pretty far away from me. (knocking on wood....) I love my husband very much and wonder if the few problems we do have stem from getting married so young. We will be celebrating our 14th anniversary in a few months and despite what some people predicted we are still going strong. He is my life and has been since I was 15 years old. I can't imagine my life without him and even though I want to wring his neck sometimes we are good together. We can work slowly on the $$ issues and just try to make it through this recession in one piece. Maybe instead of focusing on how my husband is treating money , maybe I would be less bitter if I spent some of our $$$ on myself instead of being the "sacrificer" all the time. hmmmmmmm
