Well, The title says it all. { not really , right? } Let me preface this post by saying....I may have a slight obsession with Target and may be using this blog as an outlet to confess my many many thoughts of buying everything that they make. Eeeeeeeeeeeek. {especially their home decor}.
I have spent many many hours walking the isles looking for...well..something I need. DUH. I never buy things I don't need....I can always theorize some way to need something in Target. This is where Eddie comes in .....He helps me separate the needs from the wants.
As simple { and maybe weird} as this may seem, Target has helped me realize how much Eddie balances me. His strengths = my weaknesses. I just love when he says ' do you REALLY need that?'. Well NO. I Don't. But Still.
I'm learning to say no more...because we now share a checking account , which I highly recommend, and its OUR money now . {WOO!}
All joking aside.... {yeah, right}
Being married has been amazing and we are 100 days in and are still learning each other. One thing he has already learned about me is how much I LOVE coffee. He knows better than to ask....'Lindsey, do you really need Starbucks?' { HELLO! YES I DO} But also knows how to sweetly deter me from the 'other side' of Target where all of the real treasures reside { stationary, dollar section, purses, makeup, clothing , shoes , O my !}
Marriage is an adventure....It makes my ordinary life , extra-ordinary. Are there fights, yes. Are there bad days , yes. Do we sometimes speak in cat, yes . (ignore that) Do we love each other, yes. Do we like each other, yes ...right now. Marriage isn't perfect... But like my vows stated ....It is perfectly imperfect.
& I love it.

Hi Lindsey! I'm also 'dressing our nest' and it's nice to 'meet' you. By the way, you're not alone. I also love Target... too much and have had to avoid shopping there for the past month because I have trouble restraining myself, too. Do you think there's hope for us?
ReplyDeleteI really like the selfies of you and your hubby, too. That was cute. Hey, I'm really glad I found your blog today. I hope you're still blogging because I really enjoyed the visit. If you get a chance, stop by and take a peek at my blog. Maybe we can even follow each other. I can add you to my blog roll. It will probably bring more followers your way. Take care... :)
