Happy Anniversary

Friday, February 27, 2009 was mine and Zerolove's 10th wedding anniversary. I planned on taking time that day to write something incredibly sweet and loving. We also planned on going out to a romantic dinner together after work.

However, work was evil and busy as crap all day long. I barely had time to think straight and at one point, had to tell everyone just leave me alone a few minutes and let me clean up my desk so that I could think straight.

Right at 2:00 the school called, one of the twins was sick with a fever. I called Zero and fortunately he was able to leave work and go pick her up, he went ahead and got sister too. It also stormed all day Friday and we had threats of tornadoes all over the place, typical Alabama weather. I stayed at work an hour late to get finished up and he delayed coming to get me because of the weather.

By the time he picked me up, he had 2 very sick and feverish children in the car. The oldest DD went out with friends for the evening. We had to stop at Walgreens and get them some medicine on the way home because their fevers were so high. Needless to say, we spent the evening taking care of them and our romantic dinner was McDonalds. Oldest DD came home and wasn't feeling great so she went on to bed.

I got up Saturday morning to 3 kids running fevers. Of course that makes for the best day ever LOL. Zero also wasn't feeling real well. After spending the morning running between kids, I left him to take care of them and I went to get groceries and stuff. I'm glad I did too because Sunday morning, we woke up to a nice covering of snow. And lets face it, I'm from Alabama, I don't know how to drive on snowy roads. Two of the kids were feeling better today. Only one still has a fever coming and going and an ear ache. She's staying home from school tomorrow, and I'll be staying home with her. Which means, Tuesday work will be hell.

Anyway. When Zero and I got married, people did not think we'd make it 2 years. We weren't real sure of that ourselves. Now it's been 10 married, and 11 together. We've had some ups and we've had some downs, and then, we've had some sitting on the bottom of the pit wondering wtf. We've managed to get through it all so far. I think that if we could make it through what we have, the next 10, 20, 30 years should be no problem. I love him more than I did the day we married and more than I ever thought I would love any human being that I didn't give birth to.
