So my last post was about my hubby and why I am so enamored with him <3 But in the interest of full disclosure I'm now going to tell you the top 5 reasons why my husband isn't perfect, but I love him anyway....
1. He might be a hoarder.
I'm not 100% sure on this one. What I know is that he doesn't throw things away. I haven't figured out if it's laziness or hoarding, regardless, the outcome is the same: our house has stuff in it that should be in the garbage can.
2. He yells at umpires.
I have actually said to my husband "We arrived here in one car and just so you know, if you get thrown out of the game I'm not leaving until it's over, so you'll need to find a ride."
Yeah, he's *that* guy. During church league softball I have to remind him that it's CHURCH LEAGUE and no one appreciates his negativity.
3. He has a slight case of road rage.
On one of our first dates he started yelling at another driver. I nicely told him that evening that I hated when he did that and that I found it highly unattractive. He stopped doing it with me in the car, but I know when he drives alone he's making an Olympic sport of mocking other drivers.
4. He's not patriotic.
I'm a teacher. I taught US History when I taught 5th grade and Veteran's Day is one of my favorite holidays. I'm an idealist who wants to believe in the good side of people. My hubby is the opposite. He hates the government. We used to argue about this topic. But then I realized that it has zero effect on our daily lives so it really doesn't matter that we disagree about political issues so now we just don't talk about it. It's working out pretty well ;-)
5. When things get stressful he chills.
I on the other hand flip out, make lists and create A, B and C plans while he watches whatever sport is on TV at the moment. Which leads me to....
6. He is a sports addict.
I know I said I would write 5 things but I thought of one more... he is obsessed with sports. Like ESPN radio obsessed. People listen to other things besides music on the radio??
That's it. Those are the flaws my husband has that could drive me nuts if I let them. Instead I realize he truly is the yin to my yang and we help each other be totally functioning adults while raising 5 kids with flaws of their own.
