My Handsome Man

Y'all guys, I just have to take a few moments to tell you about my Handsome Man.

First, imma' preface this with the fact that we have our days, because, y'all, everyone has days right? We bicker sometimes and nit pick one another, we argue over ex-spouses and disciplinary actions, and all that good stuff that EVERYONE does. Sometimes I'm annoyed at every single thing he does, and he has the same frustrations with me. We are human, and we have rough patches and bad days. Obviously, I'm not going to post about every silly-stupid-ridiculous disagreement we have, because, well, BORING.

Back to the important stuffs. This guy. I wonder on a regular basis how on Earth I got so lucky to find him. I also wonder on a regular basis why his snoring doesn't wake him up at night, but I digress...

He is the handsomest man I have ever seen with my own two eyes, and I love doing things with my man candy, because, pride and vanity. But he is so much more than that. He is a loving father and attentive spouse. He is a hard worker and busts his ass to take care of us and when he gets home, the man is BEAT. He is movin' and shakin' and lifting ungodly weighing equipment day in and day out. It blows my mind when he tells me about some of the things he does on a daily basis. Sometimes I forget, and  I take him for granted. Though I'm not proud to admit, there are days, usually on Thursdays, when the kiddos are with their biological, I'm selfish. I want him to come home, hop in the shower and take me out, but he really wants to shower and chill on the couch. Sometimes I'm not so selfish, and I just chill with him, basking in all his handsomeness.

Let me tell you a little secret about this handsome husband of mine... He is amazing at taking care of us, doing things with the kids, housework, laundry, the whole nine yards. He is a wonderful partner to do this life thing with.

On Mondays and Tuesdays, after school, the kids go to their biological's house until 6 when I pick them up. We drive all the way across town, to our home, which takes 20-30 minutes. EVERY Monday and Tuesday, my hard working husband, who just wants to come home and relax, gets home, and makes dinner, having it on the table for us when we get there, because HE wants to help ME. Last weekend when I was making up our menu, I put super easy stuff down for Monday and Tuesday, so I could cook it up quickly when I get home with the kiddos, and he could immediately relax when he got home.... Well, when I walked in last night, this man already had all the kids' crusts and pizza toppings out, the oven preheated, THEN he helped them make their little pizzas! I think we are a lucky bunch!

#allthethangs

Near the end of 2016, one night while Stephen and I were lying in bed, I told him, "2017 is going to be our year. I can feel it. I know it. We are going to have all tha thangs," and then last night, he reminded me of this and *GASP* told me I was right! This year has been wild, but this summer has been bountifully, overwhelmingly perfect. Obviously, you know we closed on our home, which was hitting the biggest goal we have had for the last (almost) four years. We also bought a new vehicle, which we desperately needed, but were holding out until after we closed on our home, you know, 'just in case'. There is something else  that we have been wishing/hoping/praying for since I've known Stephen, and it has finally come to fruition. She's here y'all, and not just for her required 42 days this summer. She's here. She is going to school here, I just dropped her off for her first day this morning. She is making friends, learning to drive, and buildi...

SO CLOSE!

Y'all guys, OHEMGEE, y'all guys! We are now less than THREE weeks away from closing on our home and moving in. WHAAAAT?!?! I need to get busy! Anyone wanna volunteer to come help me pack? This weekend, next weekend, or the weekend after that, I'm totally free... you know, for packing. Come on and make a trip to A-Town! We got wind and dirt for days, you can't even imagine! I'll wine and dine ya', take you to Cadillac Ranch, and tell you how pretty you are. SWEAR IT. Seriously though, so much to do and I want to do it all right now! We are beyond ecstatic. For one, our final rent payment cleared our account this week, and it was one of the best feelings in the world. Knowing that after 3 years of saving and planning, we are about to move into a home that is ours. Speaking of the rent thing, it got my brain wondering how much money we have spent in rent in the last 3 and a half years... Do you want to know? Its insanity. SEVENTY TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS. Gone, jus...

TWENTYEIGHTEEN Y'ALL GUYS!

Y'all. How has another year already gone by? And seriously, has it really been almost five months since I blogged last? What the actual F?!? Where did 2017 go? I wasn't done kicking ass and taking names yet... honestly though, I'm not even a little sad its over. I got a whole new freaking year to kill it. Right? I'm pretty sure I have hit those years that my parents used to talk about 'time flying'. SLOW DOWN. Or, you know, speed the hell up, like, get me right to retirement, I'm moving to Honduras! jaykay, jaykay. I am loving all the kids, and soaking up all the memories. I know. It only happens once. all that. So many of my high school friends/acquaintances have either just had their last baby, or are about to. And I'll be honest, I'm super jealous. There have been tears. Many. And I don't even like to cry. But then, I start doing some simple math, and I'm like, I will not even be 45 yet when my youngest graduate high school... y'all ...
