a day at the races

so our good friends had free tickets to the races this past weekend. the boys absolutly loved it(just not the sitting down part) they dug the cool ear plugs, the cheering for the fast cars, the CRAAASH of the bang ups when the cars smashed into one and other. and Yes their heads turned in unison as the cars sped past. thanks Jess for the free tickets and the GREAT day

i am a debt warrior

i will attack fiercly and bravely, even if that does mean moving home with my dad to play catch up. these major bills have nothing on me! and it starts tomorrow, with this first paycheck. let them try and crush my hopes of never having a house. i WILL prevail. dammit.

Love Was Kind

not an argument between the two of us all day, we worked together, laughed together , got frustrated at the kids together. and at the end of the day still had patience with one and other and slept easy. well. i slept like a baby. he was kind, and re-primed the whole dining room while i drueled on the couch, and didnt wake me up to help him. what a happpy surprise when he moved me to my room. i was thrilled that it was done.

its a good feeling being happy and calm all day.

mission successful.

today's dare, Love is not selfish.

Love is Patient, Love is Kind

day 1

the boys we're particularly trying this morning as they realized i was departing for the baby shower, but he helped keep them busy and was patient with me while i ran around like a chicken with my head cut off.

later in the evening we had a disagreement over work ethic and financial aspects, but we resolved our spat, by going to bed angry. we talked it over in the morning and realized the lack of communication ( as i banged my head off the wall) and figured out what we needed to do.

ugh. who knew love and money can be so intertwined.


today the Dare is to be Kind to one and other.
