30 days... survey style.





I'm losing steam/desire with the 30 days of questions so I'm gonna answer a few in bulk today. It's so good to be the master and commander of my own blog. The one thing in life I can control.


Day 1: Something you hate about yourself.
Day 2: Something you love about yourself.
Day 3: Something you have to forgive yourself for. 
Day 4: Something you have to forgive someone for. 
Day 5: Something you hope to do in your life. 
Day 6: Something you hope you never do in your life. 
Day 7: Someone who has made your life worth living. 
Day 8: Someone who made your life hell, or treated you like poopy. 
My sixth grade math teacher. I blame her for my mathematical handicap. She wasn't there for me at a critical time in my acedemic development.


Day 9: Someone you didn’t want to let go, but just drifted. 
My cousins and childhood friends. We were very close as kids but life and distance has separated us. I still love, miss and think of yall often!

Day 10: Someone you need to let go, or wish you didn’t know. 
Tony Horton. (The P90X guy) I love him and hate him and I dread this coming June when he's gonna kick my butt again.

Day 11: Something people seem to compliment you the most on. 
My hair

Day 12: Something you never get compliments on. 
My intelligence.



Day 13: A band or artist that has gotten you through some tough days. 
My husbands music got me thru some of the darkest nights of my life before, during and after his mission. It's always awesome to hear someone singing about how much they love you.


 
Day 14: A hero that has let you down. 
I was pretty disappointed in Katniss for like 5 seconds at the end of Mockingjay (then I got over it)
 
Day 15: Something or someone you couldn’t live without, because you’ve tried living without it. 
Drew. I lived without him for two long years and very nearly self destructed. He makes my world a livable place.


Day 16: Someone or something you definitely could live without. 
I could definitely live w/o trashy celebs trying to be role models for our youth. Live your life the way you want but don't push it on our future.

Day 17: A book you’ve read that changed your views on something.
Brain Lock  Life changing.

Day 18: Your views on gay marriage.
Marriage should be between a man and woman.
 
Day 19: What do you think of religion? Or what do you think of politics? 
Religion has the power to bring out the best in people. It gives you focus and perspective. Politics are important to me but sometimes it feels useless to worry too much about it.


Day 20: Your views on drugs and alcohol.
Just say no. Don't ruin your and other peoples lives K?
 
Day 21: (scenario) Your best friend is in a car accident and you two got into a fight an hour before. What do you do? 
Ummmm... obviously rush to her bedside fight or no fight. 

Day 22: Something you wish you hadn’t done in your life. 
Told a secret.

Day 23: Something you wish you had done in your life. 
Finished my degree before babies


Whew! See? Now there's only a few deep and probing questions left! This is a fun little project for sure but right now I'm feeling like it's a bit much... 


In other news... keep a look out for a new baby bump pic soon cuz this thang is poppin out! The little bundle is movin and shakin like crazy and it is SO exciting! I can't believe he'll be here in just  19 weeks!

day 7.



 Someone who's made your life worth living.


Prepare for a smattering of intense pictures...

























Once again there are so many people who fit this description. I have been very blessed to know many many beautiful people in  my life and am so much better for it. 


But today I am thinking fondly of a few special people that have been with me over the years; sometimes in body, sometimes only in spirit, but they were there nonetheless.


My friends. I have a few special gal pals that have seen me through just about every imaginable circumstance it seems (whether they knew it at the time or not) and I am so very very thankful to call them mine. 


Ladies, you know who you are, thank you for making my life better and making me smile when I really, really didn't feel like it. Thank you for keeping my secrets and sharing yours. Thank you for being real with me and accepting me as I am. Thank you for traveling with me, for growing up with me, for being there for all the important moments when a girl just needs her friends.


I love you girls!

day 6.

Something you hope you never do in your life.

There are many responses that jumped immediately into my head as soon as I read this one but the one that tugged at my heart the most is this.


I hope to never do anything in my life that will cause my husband pain. He is so so so unfailingly good to me and I never, ever want to be the one to take that silly, boyish grin from his adorable face.

Naturally, over the course of our 8 years together,feelings have been hurt and misunderstandings have happened. But I can say without a doubt that drew and I never do or say anything to intentionally hurt or belittle one another. I hope it's that way forever with us. It's funny because the number one thing that makes both of us miserable is the other one being miserable. Maybe that's why we work so well together. We always put each other first.



I am so grateful to have him as my husband and I always want to be the one who makes his bad days good and his good days better.

Thank you drew. I know our life is far from perfect and we will always have challenges to face but as long as we have each other everything really will be okay.



 I have no doubt you would give everything to make me happy. And I would do the same for you. You are more than I could ever deserve.


I love you,

M
