Well this week with spring break i have been spoiled!!
Not in the shopping every night spoiled, its more spoiled in the help that my husband
has been this week! Derek has only had to worry about work. I can see how much of a relief it is to him to not have to worry about school.
It almost makes me wonder if school is the right thing for him to be doing, and then i remember how important it is that he finishes and gets a degree.
Either way, I have loved every second of having him help with the house chores and Spencer. I'm going to miss seeing him during the day and having full days off!
For me, I am Dreading school...I don't want to start monday, with my second class starting and the stress that brings. I have been trying to make a list of all the things that I
need to do and start...so far it goes as followed:
1. Get passports for me and Spencer. (there goes 400 bucks)
2. Start my new computer class/get books for it
3. Finish the Buried cities and lost tribes class
4. Fold laundry (that pile is a mile high right now)
5. Bake cookies for my sister for helping with a school assignment
6. Pay bills and work on budgeting
7. Organize to start couponing
8. Grocery shopping so that we have food to eat.... my fridge looks
sad right now. Small budget=less food.
9.Do something special for the man who does everything for me.
10. Get our list together to go up to utah in a couple weeks. (can't
Wait to see my baby nephew! He better prepare himself for some smooches!!)
I am trying to not stress about any of these things, except for school and passport. those are my main two! Can't go on vacation in may without them...:)
A couple of good things about this upcoming couple of weeks??
My MOM comes home from Denver Colorado! Man have I missed her! You never realize how much you like being around someone until they leave for a week. Too long of a time. ha
Also General conference is coming soon! I can't wait. I remember when I was
younger I always loved G.C. just because we got to stay home from church (still is one of the perks) but now I just can't wait to hear what they have to say to help me. I can't wait to feel the guilt of not doing something to help push me to do it. To know that I should be better. To get that spirit back in our home. Its just going to be wonderful!
Last is Easter. I get to spend Spencer's first Easter in Utah with my nephew supporting them in blessing their sweet baby boy. I can't wait to hold him. Seriously I see pictures and my heart hurts because I haven't seen him. I am Maeson's aunt. It's kind of a big deal! :)
Lots are going on in this brain of mine. I just try to make it day to day to get through. Somedays i end with a smile, and some days I do my best just to be nice. But I have wonderful support team. I am so glad that I married such a wonderful guy. He does things for me that I don't deserve. He cleans and tries to do what he can even when he is exhausted. We have days where we snap at each other and honestly, I don't ever not love him..
We both have been trying to keep our cool and not get offended when each other says something that comes off as rude. We aren't perfect.
But we are PERFECT for each other.
I hope one day I can be the person in my head.
That perfect wife.
The person that both he and Spencer deserve.
I seriously have a wonderful life.
I've never had good luck in anything, and yet I see my family, and lets be honest. I'm the luckiest girl out there. I might not win any contests. Or have my name drawn to do something important. But I was lucky enough to get to spend the rest of the eternities with the people who mean the most to me. Thats good enough for me! :)
Lady lover of mine. I just think you are so stellar for trying to do school at the same time as being a full time momma. Do NOT get discouraged! It's going to suck every.single.step of the way, but getting that diploma will be so worth it! And Derek, I'm sure, is stressed with school, but just love it! Someday when he's done and working his awesome career-thing job, he and you will laugh about how these years were so sucky! I adore the life out of your cute, little family! Stick it through, woman. You are a strong, hot, little thing!
