One of my readers got on to me about not posting more regularly. This one is for you Stacee.
There are many people curious about the kind of relationship that M and I have. For some reason, the curiosity tends to lead some to believe that we somehow lead a very different life from others. I really wish that were the case but we lead a relatively common life. Don’t believe me? Take a look at our typical weekday (pulled specifically from today)
6:30 a.m M rises and awakens the kids and starts breakfast
6:50-7 a.m M awakens me
7:25 a.m. M and or I wait with kids at the bus stop
7:30 a.m. M makes coffee and chats with me as I finish getting ready for work
7:50 a.m. M heads to our store and within 10 minutes I head to work.
8:00 a.m. to 5 p.m. M works at our store while I work at the station. We talk six or seven times a day
5 p.m. M or I pick up the kids from school
5:30 I begin cooking dinner (sometimes M will cook) While one of us cooks the other helps kids with homework. If the kids have no homework, we all hang out in the kitchen and cook together.
6:30 We eat dinner together as a family
7:15-8:00 Family time
8:00-8:15 kids take baths and go to bed.
8:30-10 p.m. Alisa works on voiceover jobs and things for Payson Jewels (right now it’s working on the website revamping for Payson Jewels). M watches television.
10:30 to 11:00 or so M and I talk while he irons the kids clothes.
11:00 Lights out for everyone.
As you can see, we’re pretty boring. We do occasionally shake things up a bit by going out to dinner or watching a movie etc but what you see above is our typical day. I hope you enjoyed a glimpse into our daily lives. I know to some people it may be a bit “Leave it To Beaver” but it’s not. It’s just who we are. Until the next blog…

A Journey In Black and Indian Love 
You are silly. hahaha!! Well thanks for this, missy! Don’t I feel special.
I am loving the 5:30-8p quality time in the kitchen, eating as a family, and family time. That’s beautiful! Many families are not like that anymore.
I will admit that when I first found your blog, I was excited to see a black woman with an indian man, because for me, it was new. But I know that you all are a normal, happily married family, that just happened to be interracial. I am a sucka for a good love story and I fell in love with your whole story….it’s always good to see/hear two people who are in love and committed to each other. Btw, your life is not boring….normal, but not boring. ;P
Have a peaceful night and a wonderful day tomorrow, Mrs. A. I’m on my way to bed.
Thanks for sharing. I really enjoy your blog so please post as much as possible. Thanks again. Blessings!
