Tea and Sweatpants...

I think many of you will not find this surprising but I am terrible at multitasking! I feel as if I am a fairly good listener when the conversation is meant to be face-to-face or all other distractions are gone. Any other circumstances can be a disaster or very frustrating for the person speaking to me, like my husband. I cannot tell you how many times I've been driving somewhere (home from work, to the grocery store, etc.) to fairly routine locations and started talking on the phone to one of my bffs or my mom or sister and found myself in the strangest locations. I also cannot tell you how many times I've been talking to Nick and a commercial comes on really loud so I stop mid sentence to watch the darn thing. I don't even care about the commercial and most often I can't even remember what I was saying. I am convinced my best friends from college still are amazed I made it as a teacher for 3 years, a job that requires such great multitasking!

I often think about how ironic it is that one man who is so good at doing the very thing I suck at found me...there are so many women out there that God blessed with the mysterious ability to hear, see, and walk times two all at one time! Nick and I laugh about it all the time and I think secretly he likes that he's better at it then I am:)

For all of you who have a spouse that stops mid sentence, gets easily distracted by the TV, can't hear anything else when they are on the phone, or can seem as if they are on some other planet...please love them like Nick loves me:) Laugh about it and try not to get frustrated we most certainly don't do it on purpose!
