Equity

Travis and I always joke (we're actually serious though) about the status of our "marital equity." You know, the times that you do something for your spouse that means a lot to them and it builds your "equity" and then at a later time, you are able to cash in that equity for something you want/need in return. It happens on a regular basis, but this week Travis has built up some MAJOR equity! Deposit #1- My car was having some issues on Tuesday (it decided it didn't want to warm up AT ALL the whole way to work, and then it overheated...how it managed to do that when it was 20 degrees outside is beyond me), so Travis being the wonderful husband he is, came and got my car at work, fixed it and had it ready for me when I got off. This was HUGE for me, because I absolutely hate having to deal with car problems. I was only without heat for 1/2 a day, but I have appreciated my heater SO much more since! Lots of equity for that one. Deposit #2- I had my RS Christmas Dinner that I was in charge of last night and one aspect of my stress was the fact that we had to move 8 big, round tables and about 70 chairs from the church to our clubhouse and then back again when the dinner was over. Big undertaking right?! Well, Travis stepped up and helped us load everything from the church, unload at the clubhouse, came back when it was over and loaded it all back up and put it away at the church while the girls stayed and cleaned up the clubhouse. Saved my life! Ok, maybe that was a little dramatic, but really, he made it so much easier on me! Needless to say, I've got to find some way to repay him! He's already wanted to cash in on some of that equity...want to know how?? He wants me to give him one of his Christmas presents early. Will I? Probably. How can I not after how great he's been this week??
