love thursday

The picture is from a tv ad here in Australia. The ad shows a fairy tale prince and princess but instead of living happily ever after they part ways after one date. The ad end with these birds singing 'forever is overrated'.

I have had this line stuck in my head the last days; 'forever is overrated' and I think, no scratch that, I know that this is not right. Forever is not overrated, forever sounds just about the right amount of time.

When doing my daily ' avoid doing as many chores as possible' routine I came across this blog. And reading that made me feel so lucky. Yes, I have suffer a terrible loss in my life, but I do still have my husband and for that I am so grateful. Many people have comment on that I am such a strong person. The truth is I am not. I am just able to appear strong because I have such a great man holding me.

On one of the most scary days in my life, when we had to do an amino, he did not only force me to look at him so I would not see anything of that big needle going into my tummy. He also found out that this particular day was the day we had been married for 400 days. Which of course meant we had to celebrate that fact so the awful day turned out to be a bit good too.

I never knew I could love someone so much or feel so depended on someone as much as I feel about my husband. I guess I should keep that in mind next time he wrestle me down and tell me he is going to lick my eyeballs...

Forever is just right. Happy love thursday.

Ramadan started today. This is the fifth Ramadan Hameed and I have spent together and hopefully this one will be good.

I used to hate Ramadan. Not eating made my man crabby and when he was crabby I got crabby too. And since we normally love food and lots of our fun time together involved food it seem like the month of ramadan was very boring.

My hubby do normally have everlasting patient, but that is also linked to food somehow. We don't normally fight much, but the few big fights we have had have happen during Ramadan.

Now one of this big fights ended with us deciding to get married... so its not all bad.

Today I have spent most of the day cleaning and trying to get ride of some junk. One of the things I found was the card I got from Hameed for our first wedding anniversary. I had to sit down and read the poem he wrote me all over again. Then a bit later I found our wedding photos. It was nice to see through them again and we both look so happy.

They say marriage has its ups and downs, honestly we have had most ups. I feeling very lucky and are pretty sure we will survive another Ramadan.

Happy love Thursday

anniversary

It was such a nice weekend :) And I really do have the best husband. Here is a link to the poem he wrote me:
'the sun sleeps in my bed'

sweet

My husband heard this song on tv and totally fell in love with it. He is singing it for me all the time and the cool thing is, the song could have been written for us. We are pretty much doing everything on our own here and do not have anyone else then ourself. I too love this song now :)


We'll do it all
Everything
On our own

We don't need
Anything
Or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel

Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads

I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see

I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
