Getting back to it

I have been putting off buying this app for awhile even though I have so much money in my iTunes account that has been sitting there for a year probably. I just needed to do it. And now I have. I have a reminder that goes off on my phone every Sunday at 6:00 pm reminding me to write in my journal. Most of the time I take my physical journal with me to church and do it there, or in my church journal when I get home. Now I have one other option again! 

Connor had his first phone interview with Qualtrics today. It's a pretty large company that runs a survey engine and employs many many computer scientists. I really hope he gets the job and they work with him to allow him an internship this summer and part time during school till he graduates or something. I just want him to have a win. He needs a win. He's finally feeling more on top of things and I just want him to excel because I know he can. Being married to someone means believing in them when they lose faith in themselves. I don't care if no one ever reads this, but I also hope someone does so they can get a little bit of hope or comfort or love from what I write here. Life is hard, life doesn't stop being hard when you get married. Life is hard, marriage is the good part. Believe in good things, work hard, play hard, good things will happen. 

My job is cool

Today they called a "code pink" over the intercom in the hospital which means that a baby has been taken or is missing. I was amazed at how quickly everyone banded together to block the doors and stairways to attempt to apprehend the intruder. Every exit was covered, every employee was on alert. The patients in the lobby knew that something was going on, but they didn't know what. I was far away from where the baby was taken, but I still stood in front of the stairwell in case they happened to choose that as their escape route. It lasted less than ten minutes and I don't know what happened, but the baby was found and is safe and I'm sure her parents are quite happy with that fact. I'm just amazed at how when many people work together towards a common goal how secure it felt. Food for thought

Reality.

70 days till I get to eat a sugar cookie. So that's about where I'm at with cravings these days. I wish I was skinnier, but I also wish I had a sugar cookie in my face right this minute. I need to learn to make healthy foods that fill us up for cheap so we don't swell up and put on more weight. I want to work out, but there seems to be so many other things to do. 

Favorite parts of married life

My husband LOVES my body and likes to rest his hands on my side or legs or wherever whenever we're sitting around. It makes me feel desirable. Also, not having to wear a full outfit at all hours of the day. And getting to be around Connor all the time. Our life is pretty blessed, we have a great time together and always end up giggling at something. He tried to lift my arms up earlier and my subconscious thought he was trying to tickle me and sent me into a fit of giggles which in turn made him laugh. Marriage is fantastic!! 

At this time in 3 days I will be someone's wife

Connors. I will be Connors wife! Oh my goodness I'm so excited I can hardly stand it!! Unfortunately I won't be spending much time with him today or tomorrow, but Friday and Saturday and all the days after that I will!!! Oh I'm so excited to go into our little honeymoon bubble and be gone for a bit. No body talk to us haha we're going to be nice and busy talking to each other. The only downside to sharing a car is not be able to surprise him when he comes home. But I'm sure I'll work something out. It's going to be grand! Oh our sealing is going to be beautiful and our life is beautiful and he is beautiful and this is just the best thing ever!! 

Friday

SO today I'm sitting at work and there is not much going on because thankfully this was the Friday of our dreams, but coming along with that is not much to do and I think I've done everything work related I can do and it's only 3:40. Thankfully I get to go home once everyone else has gone, that just means I get to sit around waiting till the docs are gone and the sonographers, but we all need our hours so we should stay.. oh I just want to be off for my wedding and honeymoon already! I am so excited to spend 12 whole days with Connor and to be his wife and to be together and having adventures and doing fun things and just being married! Oh life is beautiful!
