one woman's journey through domestication

Hello


so it is my 29th birthday and i am sitting at home with my dogs. my husband is at work (he IS a florist and it IS valentines day) and my nearest family member is 2800 miles away. so is this a good day? i am sitting in a warm house with my dogs who i love. i am healthy and have food to eat. i have a husband who i love and friends that i adore. so i guess that this is a good day.


today seemed like the perfect time to start writing my thoughts down. i received my first "wife" birthday card last night at midnight. it brought me to tears. i love being married so far - all 2 months of it - but it is uncharted territory for us. there is so much more to this than me wearing sparkly rings. a big one is whether or not i will be changing my name. i know eventually i will but i am really struggling with letting go of my name and i don't know why. is this normal? i have no idea but dad keeps telling me it is not normal and that i have to let go.


for now, i am going to fix myself a drink and wait for my hubby to come home and think about a good topic for my next post.
