changes life may bring.

In honor of so many changes that have been happening and are going to happen very soon I decided to re-vamp my bloggie. Let me give you a little background info on my life currently to explain.

Six months ago I met the most amazing man I have ever known. Chris Roberts swept me off my feet without me even realizing it. Things happened so quickly I don't think either of us expected it to turn out like this after the first date but it has. We are getting married October 1st. Yes, that is seven weeks from today, I know its very sudden. But when the timing is right you just gotta roll with it.
I have truly never been so happy in my entire life. He has so many amazing qualities that I could talk about him forever. He treats me like an actual person, not just some bimbo girl or something pretty to look at but an actual human being. He cares about my feelings and my insecurities. He makes me feel safe, physically but more importantly emotionally. He makes me laugh louder than anyone ever has before, and he lets me be just as silly.
He is the love of my life.
So that right there is the biggest change that's about to happen, and with that has to come many smaller changes. Like learning to live with a man. Chris said to me last week "we're probably going to fight a lot" and so casually. Its probably true, I'm kind of a neat freak and he likes things a certain way. Most of which are dumb ways. You have to clean you house with more then GIGANTIC black trash bags and Lysol wipes. You can't keep food in your fridge that expired three weeks ago just because it doesn't smell bad yet. And you certainly most definitely don't need to keep every single ketchup packet you get with your fast food just in case you need them one day. Like I said, the way boys rationalize things blow my mind.

I'll tell you what I am excited for though, to be a wifey. I have always been the nurturing type. And now I actually get to take care of someone and know that they love me for it. I grew up in a household where everything was very old-fashioned. Especially when it came to roles of husbands and wives. Men are the bread winners, Women stay at home and clean. Can I just tell you that I LOVE THAT. All the feminists out there are cringing right now, sorry. I can't wait to cook dinner and do the dishes and do the laundry and make a house a home. I can't wait to rub my husbands neck after a long day at work. Let me tell you, Chris has got it made. He'll never have to do anything around the house, mostly because I wont let him because he'll mess something up or do it wrong. I've been waiting for this for 20 years. Its all I've ever wanted.

Its going to be weird to have to answer to someone. To have to tell them where I'm going or if I'm going to be late. To ask them if I can do things with the girls, or to spend "our" money. I'm not really sure how to prepare myself for that.

Anyway there will be more to come about my current life and the changes it may bring. No more blog posts about broken hearts and bad first dates. Hallelujah.
