Man wakes up. Man says, "I love you" to woman. Man gets out of bed to go to the bathroom for morning routine. As man walks out of the room he states, "I love you".

Man comes back to bedroom where woman has just gotten out of bed and put on her robe. She is thinking about going to put on coffee and what to make for breakfast. Man says, "I love you" as he walks back into bedroom. Woman sighs and leaves the room to put on the coffee.

Woman makes simple breakfast of bacon and eggs. She has man's plate on table when he comes into room and sits down. Woman brings man a cup of hot coffee. Man says, "I love you". Woman says, "I love you too".

Man and woman finish morning routine so they can get to work on time. Because man is running late and it is cold outside the woman starts man's car for him. They stand at door putting on their coats. The man has to take off dry cleaning bag because woman took his favorite coat to dry cleaners for him. Man says," I love you". Woman rolls her eyes at him but does lean over to give him an affectionate kiss goodbye.

Woman has been working at her desk for 2 hours when the phone rings. She knows it is him. She knows what he will say. She wishes he would cook dinner tonight or even do the dishes after she cooks dinner. Woman picks up the phone. Man says I love you. Woman asks man what he wants for dinner. Man says he wants home cooked fried chicken with all the trimmings. Woman always cooks what man wants for dinner.

Woman is at the grocery store getting all the trimmings for man's home cooked fried chicken meal. Her cell phone rings. Woman answers the phone while trying to check out at the local grocery store. Man is on the line. He says, what else, "I love you". Woman hurries home to start cooking.

When woman walks through front door man is sitting in his recliner. He says, "I love you". Woman carries in the groceries and cooks dinner.

Woman calls man to table one hour later. Man reluctantly leaves TV and recliner to go to dining room table. He says, "I love you".

Man and woman eat supper. As man leaves table and woman begins to clear table man states,"I love you". Man goes back to TV and recliner. Woman clears the table and does the dishes.

As woman joins man in living room in front of TV man states," I love you". Woman sighs. They watch TV in comfortable silence.

Soon woman gets up to go do some laundry. Man needs clean undershirts for work tomorrow. Woman does 2 loads of laundry and then gets ready for bed.

Just as woman gets to sleep, man gets into the bed and says, "I love you". Woman says, "I love you and I have a headache".
