So, this whole blogging thing apparently didn't stick well. The biggest problem is exhaustion. I come home most days after waking up around 7 am and then being out of the house from 9 or 11 until around 5. Then I have to figure out dinner, though sadly my husband (mostly because of his crazy schedule) figures it out on his own...then I'm just done for the day. There are piles of things like thank you notes from the wedding and receipts that need to be entered into the budget and such waiting to get done...but too tired. Saturday slips away somehow and Sunday we look forward to church and then resting though it usually includes groceries for the week and errands like that. It's just crazy. I suppose it's life, but I'd really like it to slow down. I think part of the situation is my husband is a full-time student and has two part-time jobs at the school, plus I try to pick up extra editing jobs so there's not a lot of common chill time except when we're sleeping or exhausted from our days. I'm hoping his next semester schedule will fit better with mine, but we'll see...just another year of living the school life and then we both need real jobs so it'll be another season of managing our time within new boundaries. Anyways, things are good but since I'm barely even on Pinterest, I feel that's a legitimate reason not to blog? I should do better. Recently I did help make a Halloween costume (not Pinterest-inspired exactly but was still crafty) and then put a baby in a pumpkin (which was Pinterest-inspired AND amazing). Since they're other people's kids, I don't feel all that comfortable posting, but if you are friends with me on facebook, the baby-in-a-pumpkin photos ARE posted! Hope everyone had a safe and fun Halloween/Reformation Day...and that you enjoy All Saints' Day today/my birthday! Happy birthday to me. ^____^
