You know you have a good husband when....
I came home from work to supper all ready and waiting for me yesterday evening. Pigs in a blanket and macaroni...one of our favorite things (yes, we are in 3rd grade). Granted he lost a bet to me, which is why he cooked for me but I give him mega props since we made the bet several weeks ago and he still remembered, AND he even made a special wal-mart yesterday afternoon to get the stuff to make it. Wandering what the bet was? A clip from Pirates of the Caribbean came on where Jack and Elizabeth are stuck on the island and she burns all the rum and trees....Anyways, he tried to say that scene was from the 2nd movie and I knew it wasn't so we bet on it aaaand he lost. Poor guy, he was set up for failure!
You know you have a good husband when....
We went running that same night and before we started he said something smart-alecky (yeah, no clue how that's spelled) to me so I decided to leave him in the dust and run without him.
** Side note**
If you know Shelby and I, you know our relationship is based on sarcasm and a constant making fun of one another, which is where the smart-alec comment comes from and me jokingly deciding to leave him in the dust...just so there's no confusion on how our relationship is going.
Back to my story...
Of course he eventually caught up to me despite my head start. During that time while Shelby was behind me, I realized this was exactly the motivation I needed to keep going. I ran quite a bit further than normal, and when I say further I mean like 100yds, and when I say normal I mean over a week ago when I ran around the block. Whatever, that's beside the point, I ran further than usual and that's all that matters. So once Shelby caught up to me, which didn't take long, we ran a smidge further and then took a break and walked. Once we got to the end of the street we were on, we ran again but this time I told him my startling discovery of motivation, so the great husband that he is ran just a few feet behind me the whole way home.
Now don't tell me that's not great!?
He completely sacrificed his man-hood to let me think I'm winning!
