Charmed

Pardon my lack of blogging.

I tend to feel like I can only post when something exciting is happening and school has started and killed all chances of excitement.

Work. School. Daydreaming.


That's pretty much our life right now.


I said to Brandon once that I was excited for our struggling years, for the years where he can't afford flowers for me so he picks sunflowers growing along the road and where we anxiously await the ding of out little toaster oven (best. gift. ever.) signaling that the cookies are ready. Well, those times have arrived.


Charming.

Not as charming as I'd hoped, but charming none the less.


We are completely blessed, which I often forget as I'm stressing over the budget and drooling over clothes/houses I can't afford. But we have everything we need and then some. I'm thankful Brandon always keeps his head.

When we go from two full time jobs and a part time job, to one full time job; when school is slowly stealing what little time we do get to spend together, when we buy a car that was worth so much less then we got it for and it attempts to drain every penny we have out of our bank account, when we go from lots of space to no space and I'm near tears Brandon always knows just how to make things better. He's such a silver lining type of guy and is just what a girl like me needs.

Charmed. I am completely blessed & charmed.

Life is wonderful...

Now if you'll excuse me the cookies are done. :)
