My Comfort Zone

The husband was such a busy boy today. He mowed and cleaned the yard – front and back, he cleaned the roof and got rid of all the leaves, he disposed of the materials that needed to be recycled because the bins were full, and he went shopping for groceries. I didn’t want him to go shopping because I knew he was tired, but he ran out of canned vegetables that he will pair with the chicken for dinner, and he can’t have dinner without his vegetables, so he went.

He is such a hardworking man which I am so proud of not to mention, a good boy too. And that is not only today, but everyday. (“,)

Come April 3rd, my husband will be observing the first anniversary of his mother’s passing. And though it has been almost a year, he still grieves greatly. But that’s the man he is, and one of the many reasons I love him.

Unfortunately, I was unable to meet his mother. We were just a couple of months into my visa process when she passed. My husband so wanted me to meet her, as did I, but it wasn’t meant to be. Still, it was meant to be that my husband and I were to be together. And if not for the Medicare plan his mother had, that may not have happened. For years, due to her disability, he had taken care of her. Thankfully, when she turned 65, she was eligible for Medicare which took a great financial burden off of his shoulders, allowing him to be able to afford making our dream come true.

Nonetheless, in a way I still feel as if I knew his mom because I live with the man she shaped. So thanks, Mama June. You did a wonderful job…(“,)
