Ah...This is the life....

I'm sitting here on a Saturday night, a glass of red wine beside me, my darling husband finishing the dishes in the kitchen. Does it get any better?

I have been neglectful of the blogging lately. I didn't think anyone (that is if anyone other than myself actually reads this) really wanted to listen to the lack luster description of my days over the last couple weeks. It's been pretty boring around here. Work has been busy, translating to quite a few late evenings. Andre has been unhappy with his job lately as well. He has been actively sprucing up his resume and handing it out, but when he gets stressed, it's like his goes into his own little world and is absent-minded. This drives me NUTS!

As a result of all this absent-mindedness we have been bickering a lot more than normal, which has stressed us both out even more. I have made a more conscious effort to control my (horrible) temper, and Andre has made an effort to try and be more organized around the house and be more "present". I guess all of our efforts have worked because we had a fabulous day today! We didn't get to go for our walk along the Bayfront, but we did get all of our errands done, have a great lunch and dinner together, and we haven't bickered at all!

Hopefully next week will be be even better, and we can get back on track.

Well Andre is done the last bit of the dishes, so I should go and tidy up the kitchen before we sit down to watch "I Am Legend".
