I recommend reading it quickly to get the full effect of what a babbling wife sounds like. 😏

An old photo of me and my husband in our old house. ❤

I know that I talk all day

I just have so much to say

I miss you when you’re at work

So, let me catch you up

I wrote a blog

I cleaned the apartment

I worked on training our dog

Do you notice how clean I’ve been keeping the kitchen?

I had a headache at 1

But by 3, it was gone

Are you still listening?

That was only part of my day

I went to the grocery store

Some woman kept getting in my way

I smiled like I wasn’t annoyed

But you and I both know how I can be

I got really anxious at one point

I can’t explain why

My mind just had way too much to say

And it was hard to listen to all day
