DH's meeting went awesome! He is gonna fill me in later.
Basically DH has gone way above and beyond his job title for the past couple years. The pay has been good, but because the title is lower he tends to get overlooked.
One of the high ups at work set up this meeting for DH to present everything he has done for the past 4 years to other high ups and corporate. The meeting went great. DH said some of the people did not know everything he has been doing. DH built an entire Electrical Department in the past 2 years. He is amazing. <3
So there are rumors of layoffs coming. DH had been told months ago that his job was secure and he didn't need to worry. We are hoping (and see it happening!) that with the layoffs will come a restructuring and DH could be up for a promotion. Crossing everything that this meeting set that up perfectly!
Dh has been busy burying the downspouts on our house. Our builder was supposed to do it before we closed and never did He does so much around the house. I appreciate how handy he is!
bk1 that is so awesome! I hope the promotion goes through!
My H had been especially great lately. He has had so much motivation and initiative. He just randomly does the dishes, and has done some home projects on our long to do list without me reminding him.
My H has been very cheerful lately, making lots of jokes and generally just being good company. He is a lot of fun when he isn't so stressed. It's especially fun watching him run around in the yard with the dog.

H picked me up from the work outing after telling me to stay as long as I wanted! I wanted another drink but didn't want to drive if I had another. I think he knew I needed a night out, though I wish it was with friends and not coworkers, but it was still fun to get to know them better!
DH has been so supportive of me and my asthma that he is doing basically any outdoor thing right now with the smoke we've been having. I hope it goes away soon.
My H has been so good at helping and supporting me. I was stressed about chores over the weekend and I looked up from getting lunch for DS and see H folding and sorting laundry. Next thing I know he brings down a full basket of dirty laundry and starts the washer.
Hope the smoke fades/disappears soon awick14 and your asthma improves!
DH does a ton around our house...he's constantly doing something to keep it clean (especially outside work). I really need to appreciate him more in this area (sometimes I wish he wouldn't do so much so I can have a break or get my stuff done without C). The big thing I'm so thankful for though is that he works really hard so I can stay home with C...I truly cannot thank him enough for this priceless gift he has given me/us! Also, he looks at new homes every day and is putting up with my pickiness and trying to find something worth looking at. He really is the best and we are so lucky to have him!
DH bought me flowers last night. It was a nice surprise to wake up to. He has been a rock star getting everything ready for my mom to stay with us for a week.
He has also been working hard to earn some extra money for our Florida/ Disney trip in October. He pays for our vacations and works so hard for us to have a great time.
DH is just a wonderful man, partner, husband and lover. I can't wait until the day we can make him a father.
DH put in his notice at work on Wednesday- starting in September, he's going to be staying home with DD and also watching our twin nieces. Most people react pretty strangely when we tell them this, but we couldn't be more excited. He's never really cared for his job, and he tells me on pretty much a daily basis how excited he is to be home with the girls. I'm just so proud that he's willing to follow a "non-traditional" path and do the stay at home dad thing, even when people act weird about it. He's just so much more suited for it than me- love my daughter to pieces but I have zero interest in being a SAHM. And I think he's going to be great at it.
It's also going to make things so much easier for me with school starting, since I won't have to worry about what to do with DD while I have class (his job currently has him working evenings).
