Most Appreciated Wife in History

I’ve always thought I got really lucky in my choice for hubby. He doesn’t mind helping with house work, laundry and such. All I have to do is ask for help if I need it, which I rarely do because no one else folds things like they should be folded… and he’s a great dad. He’s just the right mix of fun and discipline where the kids are concerned.

You may think this is sappy or that I’m making it up, but I assure you it’s true As you know, Patrick is now working from home. He’s in his first week of transition and still LOVES it. Here’s how he’s gotten his last several “good” jobs:

He gets so sick and tired of what he’s doing that I get sick and tired of hearing him complain about it so I start trying to find him something else. After some research time and resume posts, I find him a great job, he’s all happy again. Of course that’s it “in a nutshell” but that’s really how it happens

This time I spent my usual research time but instead of posting resumes to places looking to hire people on location, I looked ONLY for places that hire telecommuters. Several places hire telecommuters, it may surprise you to look around! But I submitted his resume to a few different places. Two of them responded quite quickly. From the time I submitted his application/resume to the time he started training with SupportSoft was only about 5 weeks.

So now my hubby and I both work from home and I feel like the most appreciated wife in the history of mankind. Last week during his training, he thanked me several times a day. Over the weekend while we were driving out to his grandma’s he thanked me a couple of times. Just 10 minutes ago I was in the laundry room, he came barging out of the bedroom (his office) and wrapped me up in this big tight hug and thanked me. Hugged me for about 15 seconds or so, kissed me all over the face – skipping my mouth because he doesn’t want to catch the blahs or what ever I’m trying to fight off – thanked me again. Walked in here about 2 minutes ago just to say “thank you” then walked back into his office LOL.

I’m not complaining! It’s awesome knowing he’s happy with his new job and that I’m to “blame” or in this case… thank
