100 Things

My hubby is on a short, temporary assignment that has taken him out of the country. You know what they say about absence and fondness and all, so, needless to say, I'm feeling very fond of my man at the moment. Last week I was feeling significantly less enamored with him; we had been mildly "at each other" for awhile. At the time I was thinking of a post that would force myself to think of something I didn't want to think of: all the great things I love about Tim.

At the time I wondered if I could list 100 Things I Love About Tim. Now I feel certain I could. Wouldn't that be a great exercise for all of us married ladies?! Especially when the urge to duct tape my dear one to a chair and whack him with dead fish - what a perfect time to refocus my mental energies on love rather than bitterness.

What about you? Think you could come up with 100 things you like/love about your spouse?

  1. What a great challenge! I know my tendency to be critical sometimes when I really know that I'm the *luckiest girl in the world*! I'll have to give this one some thought and hopefully do it soon. Can't wait to read your list!

  2. Isn't it funny how it can be hard to come up with a list of things you love about the man you've pledge your life to, yet I'll bet most of us could make a list of things that drive us mad about them within a few minutes. That's an interesting observation of human tendencies, I think.

    Ah... A List. I'll pull out a sheet of paper and see how many I get before I go to sleep. I'll keep you updated!

  3. I'm sure I could and then I should give it to him, huh! How true that we are so quick to be critical when we should be concentrating on all the wonderful things about our hubbies! Great post! Thanks....and hope he gets home soon!
