26 June 2008 - The Heat is Getting to ME!!!!!/Blessing My Hubby

Okay, this heat here in Colorado is getting to me! :( I'm dealing with that and allergies. Friday and Saturday, I felt horrible. Then, Monday and Tuesday and all day today I have been soooo sick with the heat. You see, we have no a/c here at home....as Colorado has fans or window units. Blah. And we would have to pay for them...no thanks! Anyways, we leave here in 2 weeks---WOOO HOOOO!!!!!! I'm sooo glad we will be out of this heat. We're going to visit family and EVERYONE has central air! I will be in heaven for a bit...and then when we get to Germany, once again, no a/c. LOL... Oh well.

-----------

In what ways do you bless your husband? I don't get up very early and when I do, I'm not the best morning person. (I'm working on it...) Well, tomorrow, everyone has to get up early and hubby has to leave even earlier. Sooo instead of rushing for breakfast, I made it already. I made biscuits and gravy. All hubby will have to do is heat them up for a few seconds and then eat and go. :) PLUS...it will not heat up our kitchen! And the kids will be able to eat and I can do some small cleaning while they are eating.

Don't forget to bless your hubby. They work sooo hard for us and for the family...and sometimes never get the blessings they should get. Sometimes it's not about getting him something...it's about doing something. Having breakfast ready for him in the morning, doing his chores before he gets home, putting his clothes away, ironing his clothes, etc... are just some of the ways you can bless your hubby. In our home, hubby takes out the trash and cleans toilets. I don't like to do either of those things, but every now and then, I do them. You're not "required" to do anything...but why wouldn't you want to?

Bless your husband...
