How to know you found a good one

You know you’ve found a good husband when you tell him bad news and he makes you laugh.

Yesterday Ted was at a conference in Seattle while our dryer was being disassembled (note: the drum is almost as large as our daughter). The good news was that the machine was operating hot enough to use as a stove instead. Hey, we could cook eggs and bacon upstairs too. The bad news was that it would cost us two service visits (and more than two c-notes) to repair it. We’re not excited about spending money towards repairs, especially after writing a budget and also replacing our washing machine in this two weeks of the new year…

As I’m sitting at my desk IMing him, I start to laugh at Ted’s responses. The kids want to know why I’m laughing. For a moment I forget about the bills and details. The stress of the day dissipates into silliness. I’m glad I married a man who can make me laugh in the midst of a crisis.
