So I’ve been “under contract” as my wife jokingly puts it; for a week now. Honestly at first it didn’t really feel all that different than before we were married. Everyone acted the same. Our relationship seemed to be normal. Well at least our version of normal. But nothing seemed to change all that much.

I will say today I had a pretty good day. I tended to the lawn, I got all of our phones working, I made progress on my DIY coal forge, etc... everything seemed to be good.

That’s when I realized that I was mainly happy over the thought that I made a good decision marrying my girl. I mean sure are relationship has some issues. Mainly in intimacy and communication. But name one perfect relationship? So as of now I am very happy and comfortable with my decision to marrying her. Things really aren’t all that different then before. We still have separate bank accounts with one joint account. Her money is hers and mine is mine. We have three fur babies whom we love. We’re talking kids in a few years depending on our situation. Etc...

Oh I did loose my wedding ring though. I have several partial missing digits and my ring finger ends at the second knuckle. So my wedding ring worked its way off and hit the floor while we were shopping. So to solve this issue; since my wedding finger is oddly shaped and ends at the first knuckle, I’m probably going to get one tattooed on my finger. Is this a smart idea? I don’t know. Am I going through with it? Yes I am.

So I’m not asking help or anything. I’m just reporting in.
