It's Friday, I'm in LoVE! ...+updates

Happy Friday everyone! Hooo-rah.

So first some updates:
  • To put any rumors at bay NO, I am not pregnant already! I would be sharing that; there's no way I would be able to keep that to myself!
  • We will probably get a few egg-laying chickens next week! I work for a catalog company and they're using real baby chicks for our Easter book. They need homes after the photo shoot!
  • I'm going to make a miniature version of the wedding dress I want to make. Did you know Kleinfelds will make a mini replica of your gown if you buy it there? Only $800! LOL... I think that will help me make a larger version when funding allows for gratuitous fabric purchasing.
  • Shawn and I are doing really well!
  • The house is making progress getting boxes unpacked (it's only been since AUGUST! Mwaahh-mwaaaammp) and saving money as well as paying off annoying bits of debt. Every bill paid is a step closer to baby!
  • As soon as it gets nice out we are SO painting the front door orange and finishing up the rest of the house-front update.
  • CHICKENS!!!! Can you believe they're FREE!?!?!
  • I'm now obsessed with Polyvore much like I was Pinterest. I'm laying off of both more and more.
Onto our regularly scheduled amazingness:

Today I Love ME because:
  1. I remember why I blog: I have something to say whether anyone reads or not.
  2. When my paraovarian cyst pain woke me up in the middle of the night 3 times this week (for a 6-hour cumulative loss of sleep), I called it "Mommy Training."
  3. I received very harsh criticisms all last week from people I know and some I do not and I was note even remotely destroyed by it. I laughed.
  4. I knew my limits with my health this week and I respected them.
  5. My follow-up skills are developing into something killer.
  6. I think I'm in a good, mellow place where the baby-crazy is at a reasonable level.
  7. I'm so open with Shawn. It just occurred to me he probably thinks "WHO IS THIS CRAZY WOMAN I MARRIED?!" after spilling my guts to him sometimes.
  8. I'm saving up money like a champ.
  9. House is still clean since Christmas!!! AHHH! A whole month of clean house!
  10. I am getting a lot better at not putting myself down anymore. Lots better.
Happy Weekend all you lovely people that are reading! MUAH!
