Haha,
I think I've said that before. Well, never the less, I am. The last two months have been filled with wicked craziness. First, and foremost, we sold our house, became homeless for 3 weeks (during which time, my wonderful sister let us live at her house), and finally moved into our own new house. Also within this time, we had a beautiful wedding to attend (and be the Matron of Honor in) along with numerous other off the wall things.
Unfortunately, this whole process has left me disconnected and finding the need to be reflective of our life. Which can be good or bad, depending on the topic. One thing that has been agreed upon by dear husband and I is that with the new house comes the need to GROW UP. Granted, we have been married for 4 years (on Thursday to be exact), just bought our second house--which ironically has become an area of stress for me because everyone assumes it is our first and when I correct them they act like there is no possible way that we could be 25 and at that point but again a topic for another time-- and have two kids. But honestly with our other house we could do just enough to survive but not enough to be truly grown up. But that is going to change because that just doesn't cut it here. In the old house we could go a week (or three) without cleaning but this house is big enough that a week would require an entire day to catch up.
And since I am a planner by nature (which drives hubby and hubby's extended family NUTS) I figured a good way to be accountable would be to share with the whole internet!! My first goal is to cut out the amount of fast food/take out/ and eating out that we do. This requires planning so it seemed like a good place to start. I have been wildly trying to come up with recipes that don't bore me to death so this will be my task for the week (hint hint if you have one you would like to share, please do!)
Next week, I think I'll tackle cleaning :)
