What's It Like Married To A Saint!

Gosh where do I start?....Everyone that knows my husband adores him.  My hairdresser calls him Saint Ivy.  It makes me laugh.  I met my husband almost 29 years ago.  The first thing I noticed was how nice and kind he was.   He's never changed in all these years.   I on the other hand have changed mentally, physically, and emotionally.  Living with someone who is Bi Polar is tough.  One of the first things to change with me was my weight.  Taking Bi Polar Meds made me FAT... Having no thyroid made me FAT FAT.  My husband never said anything when I weighted over 200 lbs.  When I had babies my husband would get up with the them so that I could get some sleep even though he had a full time job.  Later when my girls would be of school age he would bring them to school because he never knew if I had a manic night or not.   When I was sick for 7 years with thyroid cancer and I was in bed all the time, never once did he complain.  Now that I'm no longer sick and hitting the gym 6 days a week, 2 hours a day, he supports my exercise routine.   I don't like to cook so basically he does most of the cooking.   He will empty the dishwasher in the morning so I don't have to.  On weekens he let's me sleep late thing brings me coffee and the newpaper in bed.  On the weekens he will also do laundry.  I am cold natured because of hypothyroidism so at night my husband brings me my robe, puts socks on my feet, and covers me with a blanket.  During the night he always makes sure I'm covered as well as in the morning.  For Valentine, My Birthday, Mother's Day and Christmas he gives me what I love which is a gift certificate for a massage and a pedicure.  This past Christmas he gave me a thousand dollars cash and told me to go get a new computer and an I Pad that I had been wanting.   He knows I hate to go to the gas station so he will take my car and fill it up then wash it for me. His mom has dementia and for years he would help take care of her on the weekens at hour house  until she was too old to travel.   Did I tell you he works 2 jobs so that I don't have to.  Can't forget that he was President of the schoolboard at my children's school.  He also coached baseball and basketball for 2 of my daughters.  In  29 years I know I'm missing a lot but these are the things that I remember well.  Yes, I'm married to a Saint and I Love Him Dearly.
