Whew... Life has been CRAZY!! Just when we thought life was going to slow down it went charging full speed ahead! Daniel and I have officially been together for 2 years now on July 7th and married for 3 months. It has been an amazing thus far. In fact, if I had known marriage was going to be so fun I would have done it a lot sooner! So, anyway here is a little update on life the past few months.
1. I got a new position, well not new, it's more like I added another full time positon on top of my already full time postion. I work for non profit, they will save money anyway they can. Over worked and Under paid has taken on a whole new meaning in my life. I guess you could say I am a case manager, therapist, nurse, lactation consultant, birthing coach, chaffeaur and baby daddy all rolled in to one! Yep, I'm busy but it is NEVER dull and my weeks fly by like you would not believe.
2. HOUSE HUNTING SUCKS! Seriously, Daniel and I have been looking for a house for a few months now and we have the worst luck ever. I guess it does not help that we are pretty picky. I mean honestly a house with more than 5 acres, fenced and a barn within 20 miles of Knoxville and less than half a million is not to much to ask for. Sure we have had several options but everytime we find something we like someone else rips it right out from under us. Properties that have been on the market for over a year with no interest suddenly get bought right up as soon as we show interest. On the bright side, our landlord is letting us rent our current house on a month to month basis so that takes off a lot of stress considering out lease is up next month...
3. My retainer broke. Okay thats not that important but it is a permanent retainer thats been on my teeth since 7th grade and last night half of it decided to break. It was sad.
4. ROCK CLIMBING- Daniel and I finally got back on the rock. We had not been climbing since Daniel proposed to me, which by the way, can never be topped as my favorite climbing trip. Daniel looked like he had been climbing everyday since, I however looked like an out of shape chimpanzee. I could not let the boys beat me however, so I survived.
5. Betty freaking Crocker- I have to mention that I have been getting my groove on in the kitchen thanks to pinterest and my good friend Jennifer Morgan! I'm not to shabby either. No one has died from my cooking and our house has not burned down. See told you I was not too shabby. I cannot wait to have bigger kitchen though because I have a whole ton of kitchen gadgets and supplies from our wedding that I cant use because I have no room.
6. Daniels busines is a booming which is awesome! He has said all along this was going to be a good year and I think thus far it is surpassing his expectations! Thank God because we all know I am not the bread winner of the family.
Well, I guess that's really about all right now. I know I have more but I will wait! In the mean time it is time to go to the orthodontist to get this retainer glued back into place.
