The Supportive Husband

Fair warning, you may find this to be a “TMI” blog!

Nothing makes a girl happier than a supportive husband! Right?

Had lunch with the Bovine Hunter today, which we try to do as often as possible. I was good and picked the salad over my usual Monday Cheesesteak and Fries. This choice got a “thumbs up” from the hubs and reminded me of a conversation I had had with my boss this morning. So I start telling him about this new “eating plan” that she was reading about (doesn’t that sound so much better than “diet”). Now, I am not a good “eating plan” candidate, but it was interesting so I was telling him about it. Of course, he was totally interested in this as he stared at ESPN on the tv across the restaurant.

First off, he was very kind by sincerely asking why my boss needed an “eating plan”. He is a big fan of my boss and always makes “man” comments that I am to pass along to her. I won’t repeat them since they both might read this, but I always make sure to pass along the message. I think she gets a kick out of it! My boss looks great, but I was telling him how after adjusting her Thyroid medication she just wanted to make sure that she didn’t gain a bunch of unwanted weight. That previously her clothes had been falling off……ahhhh haa….and there sparked an interest! Immediately he was totally in to this conversation about “clothes falling off”! So I kept on with my conversation…..

Me: “I wish I had a hyper Thyroid so my clothes would fall off, mine just fall off because they are busting at the seams”

Bovine Hunter: “well, as long as they are falling off…….”

Well, if I wanted support, I sure had it then. True to most men, love you honey, he was all about supporting anything that resulted in a conversation about clothes coming off. Hey, what can I say, a girl has to be happy with that support! And it provided with a good laugh!
