Life Lessons

Below is a list of things that I was privileged enough to learn before Zach and I got married and if I continue to remind myself of these things it will inevitable make our relationship stronger..

1. No one cares if the house is a mess but me!
2. Just because he has seen me at my worst doesn't mean he wants to see me that way everyday
3. Actually attempting to look nice boosts your self esteem
4. NO hes not going to notice the 1lb that I worked so hard to lose
5. NO hes not going to eat all that healthly stuff you eat EVEN if it is all you buy
6. Compromise is difficult but required!!
7. yes he will always choose surfing over helping plan wedding, house cleaning, and cooking
8. Guys are just not that into cleaning, cooking, decorating and other minor details (unless they have to do w/ surfing, dirt bikes, & cars)
9. NAGGING DOES NOT WORK! if anyone else has a solution I would love to hear it :)
10. No he will not take out the recycling and trash w/o me asking or do other household chores
11. Quality time can consist of sitting on the couch together even if we are focused on two separate tasks

Those are just a few of the things that I have learned since Zach and I have been together and I consider myself very lucky to have learned most of them before we get married.. now if I could only remember those things each and every day!!!
