Life thoughts

I dont want to get heavy with the thoughts on how to live your life, but I wanted to share a thought on mine.
For some reason today I talked about laundry to one of my daughters' and to a friend,  She said that she didnt think it was something she did well and I told him that he needed to do his own laundry because no one could do it to suit him (which he agreed). 
It brought a thought as to how I have lived my life.
How, you ask.  I know that I am not a good cook, not one to have a white glove home, do not do any ironing, and do not care that I am bad at all of those.  I love to work in the yard and always have a project or twelve started out there. 
But there is a method to my madness.  If something happened to me before my dear husband, I didnt want his 2nd wife to have to worry about doing things as well as I did.  She wouldnt have to listen to him saying or worry about him thinking that her cooking or cleaning wasnt as good as mine.  He would be thankful that she didnt like to do yard work because then he wouldnt have to do anything but mow.
So it was all about him and I did all that (or didnt do all of that) for him and his 2nd wife.
Wasnt I thoughtful?
I hope this helps everyone when you think of how you could be doing something better.  You are thinking only of him and how happy he will be with his next wife, knowing all along how you will be happier with your 2nd husband because he has to do something better than your 1st.
Give your husband a big hug and kiss and thank him for not taking the garbage out before it stinks or for not picking up his dirty clothes.  You know he is doing that just for you.

Have a smile a day.
