Life After “I Do”

Laundry reigns as king of her household… Work could never be more backed up… But all he has to do is smile and none of it matters anymore… The Cabin could not be more beautiful… Except for all those spider webs she can’t reach… A ladder would be nice somewhere in the future… All the furnishings are neatly placed in their little cubbies… The used sofa that smells like a dog here… The shelves that the paint is chipping off of there… Everything is used, but everything is theirs… And she loves her life… Especially when they are lying in bed at night… And the world is dark and cold outside… And he holds her close…  And he whispers in her ear, "I love you…" And she will whisper back, "I love you too…" before they fall asleep… How she relishes the life after "I do."
