I can't really say it anywhere else so I'll say it here: my wife looks freaking hot today!

I closed the store last night and on my way home my boss called me to cover her shift today. My wife was out when I got home and I left early this morning so she wasn't to know I wasn't going to be home. I hope she enjoyed her alone time. The house looks great as does she. I got in and she was wearing a pair or crimson pants she'd bought a while back but she couldn't quite fit into. Now she does and she looks stunning. I bumbled out something along the lines of looking amazing but it's hard to speak when you're jaw has dropped :p

She was getting things together to take round to her friend's place. Her friend's kids are slightly younger than our so we usually give our kids' stuff to her each season. This time around, my wife has cleaned out the wardrobe to give her friend clothes too. Unfortunately that means a shopping spree is coming up. My guess though is that my wife will shoulder the load herself or ask me for half the kids stuff. Either way, I'll roll with the punches and admire what she buys. She has great taste for herself and the kids.

So having gone to work today I sacrificed the first day of my weekend. I had planned to head out to the yard and mow more of the lawn but that has to wait until tomorrow now. My football team plays shortly so there goes my afternoon. I've worked 12 days straight now but I must admit, I've enjoyed it. I've got out of the house, I've done something productive, I've helped my boss out in a time of need and I'm making money. I worked both days of my scheduled weekend off last weekend. It's been a good distraction from life as I've found myself thinking about my wife more the past couple of days. I have to refresh myself with the Rules.

The WAS is a funny creature though. I know I've said that a fair bit recently but I can't shake the thought. Three days ago she tells me she hates me, today she speaks to me in a civil manner and didn't get angry with me when I hung out a load of washing she did. I can't help but shake my head.
