After the Happily Ever After.............

What can I say, I am a night owl.  When everyone else is snug in their beds my mind takes off and will not stop going.  I think that is why I enjoy working the overnight shift.  I can do my job and solve the world's problems all in the eight to twelve hours I am up taking care of those who can no longer take care of themselves.  Of course I am very good at solving everyone else's problems but not so good at solving mine.  Funny how that is isn't it?  I think we are all guilty of that to a point,it is always easier to lead a horse to water, but not always so easy to make them drink.

For some reason at night my thoughts wax like the moon and my emotions wane like the tide.  Don't get me wrong I am not complaining, merely making an observation. I think as humans we all go through phases similar to mine whether you are aware of them or not.  Just today my husband and I were coming home from a fairly trying appointment.  I know in life it is what it is and most of our problems, have to do with our choices and sometimes those choices bite you in the ass.  There, I said it, but it is true.  Anyway, that is all part of growing and changing as humans and as a couple.  However, on our way home I had a meltdown of epic proportions.  Now, during these bouts of what some may call mere insanity, it is best just to let me blow off steam and not try to reason with me.  I don't want to hear "It is what it is", of "Today is the start of the rest of our lives"  I want to just have my melt down.  It is sad to realize that the person who is supposed to be there for you the most doesn't have a clue who you really are and doesn't really care to know.

So, then what happens after the honeymoon part of the relationship it over?  What happens After the Happily Ever After?.............
