CRABBY DAYS

Some days it takes a lot of work just to be OK. After 7 months spending 24/7 with your loved one it’s not always easy to be pleasant and cheerful. It takes effort to overcome this tedious confinement. I have my crabby days and when I do I can’t blame it on MS, it’s because I’m not making the effort. Pity party for one maybe? Thankfully we both give each other space when that happens. Love isn’t a state of perfection, it’s accepting the other person for the way they are right here and now, my husband knows how to do that. After 40 years of not just loving my husband but being ‘in love’ with him, I know our love is strong and we adjust to temporary moods. We understand it takes patience and knowing when to speak when words are needed and to share the silence when they are not. It’s strange having so many hours together every day for months on end but there is no one I would rather be with and I am thankful our love is tender and eternal and we still love each other on crabby days. ❤️Ro
