I've mentioned a lot about how I always seem to be busy, but I don't know if I've actually ever said how much I actually appreciate being busy! Although I do enjoy relaxing, I am not the type of person to be able to sit around all the time and be satisfied with just that. My husband can get so upset because I always have a list of projects that need to be done around the house and I don't blame him. He enjoys relaxing all weekend and I enjoy relaxing for an hour and then I start to get fidgety. So here's what keeps me busy
Being in school.
Who doesn't love being able to get an education? While I am sick and tired of living on such a small budget, I also forgot to mention that I will have very little to pay back once I graduate. I'm so thankful that my husband and I have been blessed with the job he has...it has paid for most of my schooling (and some of his)! While the pay isn't great, that is one AWESOME benefit! If you can't tell from the books, I'm one of the nerds who actually likes science and it consumes a large portion of my life.
Sweet Feet.
These sweet little feet are by far my favorite. This precious little girl takes the cake when it comes to time consumption and I don't mind at all. Did you know that when your parents say "it seems like just yesterday you were born" or "you grew up way too fast" that it is actually true. I'm learning this every day. In my busy life these sweet little feet have taught me to enjoy every moment because life really does fly by.
Housework.
Seriously, I regret all the times we would pick on my Mom because she was a stay at home mom (not that we didn't appreciate it, our family just jokes around like that). Moms do a lot. Not only do they take care of their kids but somehow (my mom at least) they manage to keep the house clean, cook dinner, run errands, and all that other mom stuff. Now I know...housework is a pain!
Spare time
Crafting and Home Improvement
Mmmm how I love this. I swear if I had the money and time I would be doing crafts and home improvement projects every day! I also have project ADD, so you could probably find about five projects around here that I have yet to finish.
Work out.
All I can think of when I say that is the song "Sexy and I Know it" by LMAFO. Are you singing it yet? Anyway, this is my love hate relationship that I have to make the time for most days during the week.
So, when it all works out right...somehow during little girl's nap I try to clean, workout, and shower. Then when she is awake we can play and I can do homework during her next nap or later when my husband gets home. Some days it is a little off balance, but it works out!
