Something You Definitely Could Live Without *Spring Forward Blog Challenge Day 5*

Something I can definitely live without is WINTER! The cold! The snow! I hate it. I hate being cold. I rarely complain of being too hot. I am in the wrong state. ha
Anyways, this is something I can live without and wish I did. I am so ready for summer! I was very thankful for the beautiful day yesterday and hoping its not just a tease. I know it is Michigan though so the weather can change at the drop of a hat. At least the end of winter is in sight! :)

Something or Someone You Can't Live Without, Because You Tried *Spring Forward Blog Challenge Day 4*

It is probably pretty popular to pick your spouse as someone you can't live without but it is true. I have been with Nick for 9 years and will be married for 4 years in June. It's hard to remember my life without him. The longest we have been apart is 2 weeks when we were dating when he went on vacation with his family. It was the longest 2 weeks ever haha! He is my best friend and I love doing anything and everything with him. Even when we are fighting, I would rather be with him fighting than without him. I know I am getting all mushy gushy ;) Its all true. He is my lobster. :D (F.R.I.E.N.D.S) "Shes your lobster. It's a known fact that lobsters fall in love and mate for life. You know what? You can actually see old lobster couples walkin' around their tank, you know, holding claws like..." Phoebe

I havent really tried to live without him but thats ok. I know I cant live without him.

A Photo of Something I Ate Today: was it worth the calories? *Spring Forward Blog Challenge Day 3*

I have become addicted to animal crackers. not necessarily organic. Someone gave us these after we had Emma. :) And I have been eating a lot of them. especially today. Luckily, they dont have THAT many calories. compared to other things I could be consuming in large quantities. ha The serving size is 17 crackers. I have eaten that many or more today. But its ok and I say...worth it. haha there ya go!

Something I Really Dont Like About Myself *Spring Forward Blog Challenge Day 2*

Of course this post is easier than day 1...

I do not like the fact that I worry easily. I worry a lot about physical symptoms, especially when they seem weird or annoying. I get panic attacks about it and worry it wont go away. I know, irrational... I need to practice what I preach and trust God. He is in control. However, I still struggle with worry and anxiety. That is my biggest struggle. I have to give it to God daily.

I also do not like the fact that I tend to be on the pessimistic side; HOWEVER, I have been more positive lately. But at times, I focus on the negative and not ALLLL the many positive blessings in my life. Why cant I be one of those people who is always positive? I can strive to be that way. It is a choice. I am striving to be more thankful and think of alll the blessings I have and focus on those things in my life God has given me.

What I like about Me *Spring Forward Blog Challenge Day 1*

Hmm so...I feel weird talking about what I like about me because, its just weird.But here I go...

I like to think of myself as a compassionate/sensitive person. I care about people and their feelings. I think I am pretty in tune with that and dont want them to feel bad etc. Of course I cant say I am like that alll the time but...

I also like to think I am a good friend to my friends. I know that any relationship takes work and sometimes I dont put in 100% effort all the time but I think that I do my best to keep up with my friends and stay connected and interested in their lives.

Finally, I like to think I am a good mom. I do my best to take care of my Drew and Emma. I put their needs above my own almost to the point of worrying, well ok I do worry but hey that is what moms do ha

Alright...that was kind of hard to write. It felt weird. lol But there ya go and I hope that you agree with me?

See you tomorrow for day 2!
