My husbands got some quirks! For example....see the photo above. He is an absolute clean freak, everything has a place and not just any place, it has a place in which Chad has designated, either publicly or privately, that I should know regardless. BUT there is a clause in his clean-freakiness....the trash. It can be piling up the wall, falling over the edges and smelling like a bad dream and he'll find some way to justify leaving it in the house one more day to avoid making the long 30 yard walk to the dumpsters at the other end of the complex. He's very persuasive...it's annoying :)
Chad also has this thing with his feet. It may or may not be a medical condition but his feet are chronically freezing. Summer, winter, bare or socked, you will always find him sitting casually on the couch but with a shirt, blanket, towel, pillow etc. wrapped around his feet. He CAN NOT sleep if the feet aren't nestled tightly beneath the sheets, infact, he kinda throws a fit and violently throws the sheets into place until they are in the right place....we've lost sleep over this ok?!
Chads got about a billion more adorable, freaky, hilarious quirks! Some of them are harder to get used to but my sweet husband has one habit I am especially grateful. He is very approachable and works very dilligently at being worthy and ready to use the priesthood whenever he can. This new year has brought with it many challenges so far. I have been really sick the past two weeks and today i hit a wall. I have so much homework, due to my illness i have been unable to workout (which is such an important outlet for my sanity) and work has been killing me the past week with month end and a handful of pretty dramatic changes. In other words, i'm super stressed and even more discouraged! I've been feeling like every time I make an effort to achieve a goal I've set, something gets in the way that i can't do anything about. I was at a breaking point today, I had a major migraine, probably one of the worst I've had, I was swamped with complaints at work (the internet is down because some joy of a tenant installed thier router incorrectly and knocked out a ton of peoples internet), and Loads of online Statistics to complete, but could hardly move with the dizziness and pain from the migraine. I asked Chad for a blessing and he dropped everything he was doing (because his life is equally chaotic) and called my cousin over to help give a blessing then gave me my own priesthood blessing afterwards. Because of his worthiness and the amazingness that IS the priesthood. My migraine vanished within 20 minutes and I was able to get on the computer with no pain in my eyes and I felt rested and relaxed. All anxiety and frustration was eased and I know my Father loves me. I love the priesthood and I love my priesthood holder. Chad is the light of my life and having him be so faithful to me and his father in heaven blesses our life everyday. I don't deserve him. But I'll take him! He's the best, I guess it just goes to show you, every day, even our worst days have tender mercies, we just need to be looking for them and have the hope and faith that the Father will show them to us through the spirit.
