My wife is a(n) (obsessed) blogger/writer - Guest Post


Hi everyone! As you all know, I've been having a bit of a "blogger's block" lately... Thanks to all of you who have given me some brilliant suggestions. So far, I've written about my 10 favourite blogs, and soon will be creating a few lists. :)

However, today's post was inspired by my other half. My other half, my soul mate, my Mr Right, the love of my life, my partner in crime (ops, in life), the best person for perfect adventures, the future father of my children and the one who'll have to share all the scratches with a puppy (when we get one). Hehe, better speak well of him here, so he won't write so many bad things about me... Emoji

Hubby and I were having breakfast this morning and I had the brilliant idea of asking him to be a guest blogger! What?, you may be asking yourself. Is she crazy? Is he a writer/blogger too? Noooo... he's not a writer, but he's funny as hell and I'm sure he'll write a great post.

Why have I asked him to be my guest post? Well, as I've already said here, he loves gardening. And I've been helping him, even though it's not my favourite thing in the world. (Still, I love gardens). So, today is his turn to help me.

This post goes out to all the partners, husbands, boyfriends, wives and girlfriends of bloggers/writers who, as my husband, "suffer" from temporary neglect, since their significant others have accepted the Ultimage Blog Challenge (or any other blogging challenge) and is spending more time in front of a computer screen than cooking lunch/dinner... But mostly, it's a MASSIVE thank you to MY husband, who has kept himself occupied with his gardening and his rugby games. Love you, beaut!!! Emoji

Hubby, over to you...  Emoji

Hi there! This is the Husband here...

Bloody blogs! What is a blog? A German toilet? I have finally realised and accepted that my wife spends more time writing than anything else....which is fantastic she has a passion for something....if it was writing typing, making notes researching etc, but the constant checking of her phone, objects beeping and bleeping drives me nuts!!

She's very good at multi-tasking? She has no problem using a phone and laptop similtaneously to check and respond to Facebook, Twitter and her Blogs. But if I ask her to hold the basket while I transfer the washing in she finds it a struggle to concentrate....mmmmmm.

On a serious note, I have noticed that her writing skills have grown immensly (I forget sometimes she is not a native speaker) Also, my passion is gardening and she never complains when I spend hours and hours outside. Maybe I should download some gardening Apps and we can beep and bleep together :)

Love you too xx

P.S. Back to Dani. Haha... that's so true! My phone is always beeping and bleeping with all the notifications of the groups posts and all. But still, he's soooo sweet and if you (husbands, wives, partners of bloggers/writers have any comments or tips for him, leave a comment and I'll make sure he replies to all of them. :)  It wasn't so hard to get him to write here today...
Happy blogging/reading!

Dani.

  1. Awesome post - both of you. I'm giggling away this morning with the beeps and bleeps of the phone! As I also love to garden - I'd love to know some of the apps hubby is considering downloading!

    1. Hi Lisa! Thanks! Hehe... giggling is good. :)
      I've been trying to find some gardening apps for him, but still haven't been lucky. I'll let you know as soon as I do (or he does)...

  2. Dani and Craig,

    I follow your love from a distance and always admiring the way you came together.
    Loved reading this side of the story. I bet my husband would write an interesting post about his side of the story too. kkkkkkkk

    1. Hi Ana! Thanks... You've been "there" since the beginning, when we first "met", eh? I bet your husband's post would be interesting too! hehe... Ana, would you like to be my guest blogger? :)

  3. Oh, that's beautiful that he wrote a post for you - and his words show how much he cares. I wonder what my husband would write if I asked him - I'm not sure he'd agree to do it at all. The urge to blog, mystifies him as it is LOL

    1. Hi Ana! Haha... Perhaps if you give him a prompt, he would do it for you. Something easy like a list: pros and cons of my wife's blogging. Lol...
      Thanks for dropping by.
      Dani.

  4. I can't believe he is a guest blogger! So sweet! I think Alex would never do this! hehe
    He should do this once in a while, so we can see the other side of a writer =)

    P.S.: why doesn't he blog about gardening? I mean, he could also own a blog! hehehe
    P.S.2: Dani, just try 'picmonkey' for easy and nice online collages!

    1. Hihi... I got him to do it, Camilinha! :) And the funny thing is that it's exactly like that! haha. It's a good idea, him writing about gardening... I'll tell him that. It would be cool. We could beep and bleep together then! ;)
      Ah, thanks for the 'picmonkey' suggestion. I've already favourited the website. I've made a collage for this post. It looks cool... Beijao, linda! <3
