Does it matter who blinked first?
The answer is no. It only matters that together, we get back on track.
What I am talking about is my marriage over the last month or so. Hubby and I have a rule in our marriage we work hard to live by (well, accept the last couple of months anyway). We make each other our number one priority as in we make it the others responsibility to make sure each other is ok, needs are met, help is given, pampering takes place, stress levels alleviated etc. I take care of Hubby make sure he is good to go so that he doesn't have to worry about de-stressing himself so that he can devote his energy to making sure I'm ok. Well some how one of us blinked and we started getting self focused. It hasn't made for a pretty time that is for sure. We had a great talk today and agree to get back to that. I am sure thankful we had this realization because being self focused is stressful. It is a lot more fun when Hubby is taking care of me and I can take care of him. Much more rewarding.
Speaking of rewarding. We have worked super hard at finding deals like thrift store shopping, sales shopping and a lot of living without certain things. Well I finally found a great deal on bedding. Well any one who has looked into getting really good bedding knows how expensive bedding can be. Well I found a deal on an 8 piece hotel style down alternative white bedding set. Pictured below.

I admit, we worked and worked the numbers to make this one work and I am so over the moon we did. All the saving and figuring out what I could live with out will be so worth it. Now I just need to get them here. :)
