Tender Mercies

This post is dedicated to my angel of a husband.

So a little background info...while the hubs and I were outside taking advantage of the warm weather Sunday afternoon by hanging our Christmas lights, Sparrow decided it would be fun to shred an oversized hand towel and Jak decided it would be fun to eat the shredded pieces. Natural consequences followed and Jak, the poor guy, spent the night puking up all the pieces. This also meant that C and I spent the night cleaning up his puke, rubbing his stomach, and NOT sleeping. While this situation would normally suck anyway, it sucked even more this time because I had to work at 7 Monday morning. When my alarm went off at 5:55 AM I could have killed someone and that someone probably would have been Jak if he hadn't looked so pathetic and miserable. Needless to say by the time I came home from work I was EXHAUSTED.

Even though I was exhausted I knew that I HAD to do laundry. See I'm the kind of person who only does laundry when I have no clothes left to wear. However, I have 3 times the amount of clothes that C does so often times he is left with no socks and no clean underwear before I get around to throwing a load in.

As I walked into the house and was greeted by two happy doggies (Jak had finally thrown up the last of the towel) I noticed the dishes were done, the floor had been vacuumed (with two huskies there is never a shortage of fur in our house,) and there was a laundry basket piled high with clean and folded clothes. After a big kiss all I had to do was walk upstairs and settle in for a long winter's nap.

C you were my angel yesterday. I love you more than I love Ghirardelli Peppermint Bark!
