Currently in my 9th semester of college.

That sounds like a lot, doesn't it?

My life

Things are okay, guys. Things are okay.

I hate my job, oh gosh I really do. But it's slowed down so much that it's become manageable again. Not to mention that I am in an emotional place right now that I can handle it all. I'm able to forget about it when I go home. And it's so close to being over! Come May and I'm done there!

School isn't bad at all. Two of my five classes are really tough but I am keeping up with it all quite nicely. Lots of homework but it's alright. I don't have the best grade in physics but I couldn't care less, to be honest. As long as I pass. We've been going to the library almost every night and studying a ton.

Financially; things are great. We have savings built up and we are working enough to continue saving, not just tread water.

Our future is still slightly uncertain but not scary. Chris is taking the GRE next month and that's going to be the tipping point of whether he goes to grad school right away or takes a break to work. And if he goes to grad school then I'll work until we start having kids. If he doesn't get right into grad school I'll work until he does get in. But either way we still have doors open for us.

And of course, my husband is freaking amazing and I love him to pieces.

See? Things are okay, guys. Life is okay.

I had a good hair day and wanted to brag. Sorry but also totally not sorry because this is my blog, be-otches.

Guess what

I saw Alex today! That's right - Alex the ex.

I was in the JFSB and he walked past me in the hall and then gave me a hug and then we talked for forty minutes! WE ARE FRIENDS! It was so great! He got married on Friday! And I forgot what a weirdo he is haha. It was really good and felt very normal. Not like an ex boyfriend at all! Just like a friend. I was very glad.

It just feels so good that I don't have to walk across campus feeling slightly afraid of seeing him. I finally feel like I'm friends with all of my exes. Gosh this is so happy-making.

Reflections on my honey

Taking a moment to reflect on how very loved I am by this man.

I'm an ungrateful and spoiled little girl and heaven knows I don't deserve someone like Chris.

Today I felt especially introspective on our relationship and how special it is. He is better to me than I could have imagined my husband would be.

I dunno, maybe it's just late but shoot dang I'm feeling so #blessed. Look at my cutie. The world probably doesn't think much of my chunk of a man but he's pretty much my whole world.
