The Best Husband Ever!

   Posted by: Rachel   in Meaningless Dribble

Jason is the best husband ever! I know many of you women think that your husband is in fact the proud owner of that title, and admittedly my opinion on this subject is quite skewed, but I can’t imagine a better husband than Jason. Even if you don’t agree that Jason is the best, you can’t deny that he is pretty fabulous.

Due to my foot surgery, these last couple of months poor Jason has been forced to be my nurse and maid. He has taken on these roles rather happily for the most part, except for the occasional complaint about how much he really hates cooking.

The first few days after my surgery he rarely left my side. Although his behavior concerning me sometimes bordered on paranoia, his anxiety over my wellbeing was very sweet.

In the weeks that followed I was on crutches and practically useless. Jason made the meals, kept the house clean, did the laundry and grocery shopping, and ran countless errands for me. However, not only did he do all those household tasks, he also carried me in and out of the tub and shower, and helped me wash my hair and change my clothes…like I said, I was pretty useless. I don’t know what I would have done without that boy’s help. I guess I would have been really dirty and hungry by now.

My lunch plate: Jason has put one out for me everyday since my surgery.

Although I have thanked him many times for all that he has done recently, no amount of thanks seems adequate. So I decided that publicly embarrassing him with this post should help even the score.

Thanks Bubba! Thanks for reading Alice in Wonderland to me until 5:30 AM in a futile attempt to help me sleep. Thanks for waking up to make me snacks in the middle of the night so I could take my pain pills. Thanks for the endless servings of ramen noodles you made me and the rides up the canyon at 2:30 in the morning to quell my claustrophobia. You truly are the best husband ever, even if I’m the only one who knows!

To the Max!

Jason claimed that he would write a post about his new car. But since he hasn’t done it yet and probably never will judging from the frequency of his posts, here’s the skinny on it.

We needed a new car for two reasons. One, Jason’s once red ’96 Mitsubishi Mirage is now pink and air-condition-less.

Secondly, I won’t be able to drive a manual for three months due to my recent surgery.

Both cars we owned were manuals so we decided that it was probably time to buy Jason a new car.

After shopping around we finally bought a ’04 Nissan Maxima. Though this car is a little older than we planned on buying, it was too plush to pass up. It has a leather interior, seat warmers, steering wheel warmer, dual moonroofs, Bose stereo system, six-CD changer, and it handles beautifully. I have never been much of a car person but, as one of my friends pointed out, feeling the power of that car makes me giggle like a little girl. I admit, I like it, I like it a lot. All these luxuries may be old news to those of you that are avid car freaks but Jason and I have always been happy with any car as long as it was reliable and comfortable. As a result, we have never put much money into our cars and the sports sedan thing is new to us.

Who\'s hotter with the car? Me or Jas?

And yes, this will be JASON’S car. I won’t use my girliness to trump his turn at having a new car. (I hate when wives always take the nicest car and leave their husbands the rust covered piece o’ shiz that barely runs.) I won’t complain though that I get to drive our new purchase for the next few months while my tendon heals.

Merry Christmas!

Howdy all,

I just finished wrapping Jason’s last present, the last Christmas present I have to wrap this year. I must admit he is rather spoiled. As usual, our Christmas tree looks like it was the victim of a Christmas present explosion. But since I rather like that man, it’s fun to spoil him a bit, even if he ends up with more presents than Dudley Dursley.

I hope ya’ll have a Christmas that is super fab!
