I’ve been waiting for the perfect day for this one. I am thankful for J. He is so wonderful 🙂 I don’t know how I made it so long without him. He is extremely funny, sometimes so much so that he catches me unaware. He is strong, he performs all the chores that I beg off with the excuse: “I’m a girl…” (i.e. cleaning out gutters, mowing the yard, grilling, landscaping…I’m gonna stop before y’all get some hare-brained idea that I’m lazy 😉 ). He is intelligent, he can carry on a conversation with just about anybody about anything. I don’t have to worry about bringing him to a co-op function-or a political fundraiser, or dinner with people he’s never met, or high school reunion- and having to entertain him, he’s got it. And he looks good doin’ it 😉 He loves animals, I’m sure all of you know about the groundhogs at the Johnson Plantation. He gets along great with my family–better than me, most of the time! Its disgusting!!! 😉 He’s a hard worker, I’ve never known him to miss a day of work. He may complain about the perils of being an electrician, but I know he’s a company man after seeing him work from six in the morning till ten at night (for two weeks!) to get The Island ready for Grand opening. J’s a great cook, too. He’s been holding out on me. He is the newly appointed breakfast maker here. Last but not least, he puts up with me with flying colors. And tells me all the time how beautiful I am, and how sweet, and how lucky he is to have me, and all I can think is how thankful I am to have HIM. Hopefully I didn’t make too many of you gag. But I always thought marriage was going to be dull and I would feel trapped…but its just the opposite. The key must be marrying the right one 🙂 I highly promote it!
