Adapting to change.

Once you're married, you have to adapt to so many changes in your life together with the partner.
Some changes are huge, like moving to a different country, and some are small; like getting used to sleep surrounded by white noise!!

When Jeeej and I got engaged, he stayed at my parents' house, and slept in the guests room. The first night, I asked him if he slept well? He said it was OK!

The next night his answer was the same :s

I had to ask again...How could we make it better?!

He asked for a small fan...There was none. So he got himself a small yellow one the very next day. After he got it, he started to enjoy his sleeps!

I made it clear to him that I'm very VERY sensitive to noises, and it should be dead calm around me so I could sleep.

He was understanding...he tried several times, I slept well...he didn't!

He begged me again...he needs to hear the white noise all through the night!!

wishhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

When we sleep out, in a hotel, at my in laws, or anywhere else he runs the A.C, the fan or even tunes the radio to a NON STATION!!

One night after another, I got used to it! I started to enjoy it...and NOW...

and NOW I CAN'T SLEEP WITHOUT THE WHITE NOISE!!

it's funny!

Last week, when he was away, I watched myself doing stuff he does all the time! Stuff I sometimes like and other times I don't!! Like using the grater as a strainer :s

Even worse, I keep turning on the small tiny fan in Mariyah's room, believing that it's best for her so she could enjoy her sleeps at night!!

Now I believe my mom when she says:"Thanks to your dad, I can't sleep unless the radio is tuned to Amman radio station!!"

Welcome Home Jeeej :D
