Kenneth

As most of you who read my posts on Facebook know I am always teasing my husband of over 24 years Ken.
And let me tell you he is an easy target just ask anyone who knows him.
 He is Narcissistic, hot tempered, impatient, and loud.
We are VERY different personalities  yet we seem to compliment each other, why I don't know.
Everything has to be about him, but he will do just about anything for anybody even if it gets him into trouble.
He angers quick and often, but gets over it just as fast and unlike me is not stubborn, just pigheaded.
When you look up the meaning of impatient in the dictionary Ken's picture should be there staring back at you, I have seen him break more things because they aren't going his way because he won't take his time and relax.
And as for the loud he is going deaf because of working around loud music and equipment most of his life, so since he can't hear himself he figures no one else can. I am constantly asking him to lower his voice.

Today I realized why I stayed with him all this time.
I'm in a wheelchair due to a stroke 2 years ago that left me paralyzed on the left side and with complete memory loss of my life.
Now right after my stroke he took it really hard and went to a very very dark place that took him nearly 18 months to come back from.
For the past six months though he has been care taker to me and somewhat to my Gramp.
He makes sure the laundry is done , does most meals, cleans 99% of the house, Gramp help a little there, gets us to our Dr. appts., is trying fix up the house, make repairs to ours and Kevin's cars and is de-hoarding what I collected before my stroke, and let me tell you I wasn't as bad as the people on the TV show but if I hadn't had the stroke who knows(cringing).
So I am dedicating this Blog entry to My Kenneth and all Husbands like him. Thank you for all you do for us.
Still not sure I love you but Starting to :)
