Note to self: Quit the kvetching

I tend to think it's the automatic reaction in any marriage. You get those trivial little annoyances and start to get annoyed that your spouse doesn't care.

Then you find little affirmations.

Tonight, I was unloading the dishwasher when I spied a mug.
Not just any mug but a mug my husband got for free from my competitor - the Brand X newspaper. It was a little joke that he got the mug but I tolerated it. Didn't make a big deal about it.
But I noticed a change in the mug. He actually went through the trouble of using sandpaper to obliterate the name of Brand X.

Love does strange things.
