There to clean up my messes...

One thing I learned early on in our marriage is that when I make a mess Scott is the sane person to clean it up.  I get all frantic, and I freeze.  This happens when I drop something and it breaks, spill something, cut myself, etc. 

This was no exception last night when I was painting my nails... I decided that I really wanted to paint my nails black.  So I was using our coffee table to hold my stuff and as a surface to paint my nails.  I got distracted while I was talking to Scott and my nail polish flung to the ground landing on our rug, spilling black nail polish. 

I freaked out, not knowing what to do, spouting off about how we needed to get a new rug.  I frantically was telling Scott to google how to get it out.  I'm lucky to have a very handy husband that at times is better at being domestic than I am... He jumped into action, and started blotting up the nail polish.  Then making a diluted acetone solution, and using some Oxyclean to finish the job.  Ta da - you would never know that had happened when you look at our rug now! 

Scott is amazing, and we balance each other out.  When I'm freaking out he's calm which is definitely what I need.  I just wanted to share this story, because it shows one reason why I'm grateful for Scott.  November is all about being grateful right?
