Marriage changes everything

As I mentioned in my first post, marriage has been a great thing for me. It didn’t seem like a difficult transition to make and I would never go back to single life again. But don’t get me wrong, there are still a lot of changes.

For instance, when I was single, I always did my own laundry. If I could fit all of my clothes into the washer at one time, I would do one load - darks, lights, whites, etc. - it didn’t matter. If I had too many clothes (two weeks worth or so), I would separate my clothes into colors and whites.

Things are different when you are married. For instance, I just did five loads of laundry (about three days worth). And not only did I have to separate them into darks, lights and whites, but I actually (seriously) did a pink load of laundry. Never, ever, in my single days would I have thought that you could do a load of all pink clothing, but apparently it is possible.

Another example - dinner. When you are single, dinner is making an entree and eating it with some kind of drink to wash it down. Not anymore - now, we need to have “color” and napkins. Foreign concepts to me, but it makes her happy.

Marriage is great, but don’t fool yourself into thinking that things won’t change - especially if you have a wife as wonderful (read:stubborn) as mine is.
