Day 9: Stress

 OK I will admit...I have been slacking off on the blogging. I have been very busy though with all the planning for my house, and trying to pack up a whole apartment while watching a 18 month old alone while my boyfriend tries to get the house done in the next month...

I give anyone credit who has redone a house and has still managed to make it through without killing each other because I am pretty sure there have been a few times (OK...maybe a hundred times at this point) that I have wanted to just give up and walk away because the stress and fighting was too much. It is normal though to argue when your spending all the money you have on a home which you know will leave you debt free in the end but you still feel like your going to end up right where you left off. Yes, I have lost faith sometimes and yes I have been through a lot making this house a home for my family, but I think in the end it will turn out to be something special that we can enjoy for a very long time.

For now, this blog will be shorter than my norm, and I will post a recipe or two in a few but this is just to update on my life. Motherhood brings many challenges, and not all of them pertain to being just a Mom. I don't think I would have gotten this house or any of this if I didn't have my daughter, because I feel everything happens for a reason. I do believe that if I wasn't a Mom, alot of this would be WAY less stressful, but I am glad I can share these joys with my daughter, even if she is too young to understand what is really going on.
