Happily Married

... One woman's honest experience, thoughts and observations. I have been with my husband for 8.5 years and married for a little over four years. I am truly happily married. My husband is the kindest person I have ever known. Many of my friends and family tell me I am spoiled by my husband because of the small things he does for me. I am openly appreciative of my man because I know not all men are like him. Now that I have gushed, I will get down to the nitty-gritty of finding the right man. In 2005 I started getting therapy for myself. The therapy had nothing to do with getting a man, but was about working on being a better me. Once I had a healthier mindset I was prepared to meet my husband (who I met in 2006). I've noticed many of my friends who are still looking; have a superficial list of prerequisites (ie: looks, money, status).

At 11:45am I was picked up by my SIL2B and her fiancé then chauffeured to the hair salon to get my make up hair done. I still cannot get over how well my hair turned out though I have to admit I retouch my make up. My FIL2B arrived for his stint as chauffer that day, the poor man was a little tired and fell asleep in a chair. After the hair and makeup was complete, I was delivered to my mother. I was successfully delivered to my mother’s. My mother squealed when I entered her hair salon she was in awe of my hair. After rel...

Today Hubby and I went to the DMV and had my legal name change done! It was odd signing my new last name on an official form. For the next while I will have to be careful how I sign things. ♥ Fabulous Moment September, 1, 2010 ♥

On The Cusp Of Matrimony

Soon enough my wedding day will be here and I will be pledging my love and commitment to my wonderful man.It is so hard to believe that as of June it will be four years for us then soon after that we will be officially husband and wife.I am so excited to be becoming a Mrs. to such a kind and selfless man. My life is about to change so much,I am about to be a wife and hopefully about 2 years later I will be a mother!Our relationship is already pretty amazing now and I know our marriage will be great.I am not saying that our marriage will be perfect but we are both equally committed to working on it from day to day. I am surprisingly confident about my impending marriage since we are both aware that a marriage is something that should never be taken for granted."J" and I have both said that we will do anything to make the marriage work since we have witnessed friends going through divorce.We both know that a marriage can fall apart if it is not nurtured.Hopefully if time...
