This week

I feel more energized when I go to work. Every hour, every customer is just one more dollar going towards my future home.

I've been looking up tons of gardening tips. I really want to grow my own strawberries and maybe even a blueberry bush on our balcony!

I'm so proud of Sammy, he was at the hospital until 1 in the morning last night taking care of his mom. He always stays so calm in emergencies and knows just what to do. That makes me so confident knowing whatever life decides to throw at us, we can deal with it. And he still has a sense of humor in scary situations. We were discussing Dr. House. (Everything is fine now, just some nasty kidney stones.)

THE BRONCOS ARE GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL!!! This is my first year really watching football and actually understanding what's going on. How exciting that my hometown is going to the Super Bowl! I need to go get me a Peyton Manning shirt…

School's starting. I got my textbooks away from my workplace (the campus bookstore) and saved $80! And yes, I even used Campus book Rental, thank you all for the recommendations!

Sammy said if I wore pajamas all day every day, he wouldn't mind because I look very nice in them. Ladies, I have found the perfect man I'm telling ya!

I got to see friends I haven't seen in forever which is always the best! And I'm looking forward to seeing others very very soon. :)

My dog is a dork. A full on dorkity dork.

My sister is going to my schools sister college. I love the irony of it.

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...

Christmas Lights

It’s funny having a baby and then trying to do things. I’ve noticed over the last year that I’ve gotten an I Can’t do that sort of attitude. We can’t do that because Aaron will cry and we’ll get cranky and so on. I’m really trying to work on that.  My anxiety out in public is much worse too. Now I have two people to protect not just myself. The library definitely changed how I look at places and I wish it hadn’t.  Sammy really wanted to go to a Christmas village downtown but I was too overwhelmed by all the logistics. So we compromised and went to one near us. It was so much fun! It was cold out but not too too bad. Aaron loves looking at the Christmas lights at our apartments, and he really loved these ones. It was so much more fun trying to look at these things through his eyes.  He was also fascinated by the mini Santa and Mrs. Clause at grandma’s house.  I’m so glad we went and can’t wait to go next year when he’s walking:)
