Do you ever find yourself in an\u00a0argument\u00a0with your spouse\/loved one, and about half-way through realize that he\/she may in fact, be right, and that you sound pretty dang ridiculous? But for the sake of possibly being a teeny-weeny bit right, you hold strong to your side?<\/p>\n

I find myself doing this at times and can even see myself from above brewing up this ridiculous storm and want to tell myself to zip it.<\/p>\n

But I usually don’t.<\/p>\n

Why don’t I?<\/p>\n

It would save a lot of time if I did, my Hubby would be incredibly happy, and we could move on with our day.<\/p>\n

For instance. Sunday morning The Hubby decided to rearrange our house. Yeah. Our HOUSE. Our place isn’t huge, so it was definitely doable, but I am not one for change, at least so much so quickly, so I was having a hard time with it.<\/p>\n

“No, that can’t go there! Then I can’t feed the kids as easily!” “I don’t like it, it feels awkward.” “That won’t work because….” “That won’t fit there because…” Yadda Yadda Yadda. I had a reason why every scenario wouldn’t work or why I didn’t like it instead of having an open mind.<\/p>\n

I really am a visual person and couldn’t envision what he was trying to explain to me and I sure gave him a hard time about it.<\/p>\n

And once I saw one area complete that actually looked nice, did I tell him so?<\/p>\n

No.<\/p>\n

Because that made him right. And for some reason it is REEEAAAALLLLLY hard for me to admit when he is right after we’ve gone back and forth for a bit.<\/p>\n

But really what he had done was opened up more space in our house, sectioned off a little area for Gwyn to have all to herself to play, given us a dining area that is away from the TV to have more intimate family dinners, and he moved everything away from our living room window to bring in more natural light.<\/p>\n

Hello, Mr. Design Star.<\/p>\n

Admitting when I am wrong right away and having a more open mind from the start are some things I am really going to hone in on to improve in myself.<\/p>\n

But man is it haaaaaaaarrrrrd.<\/p>\n

Is this hard for anyone else? What do you do when you’ve realized what your loved one is saying just might \u00a0be better\/right?<\/p>\n

Happy Tuesday, everyone! Be sure to vote!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
