Totally Not A Meaningful Post

Hi.

It seems like forever since I've written anything “meaningful” on this blog. What can I say, life kind of gets in the way? Right now, I’m currently trying to keep up with a decent work, school & fitness schedule. School has kicked my ass, work has been busy, and my work outs aren't as frequent as I’d like them to be. There’s always something going on or that needs to be done and I feel like I haven’t really had a moment to just stop and reflect. I kind of feel like my life is in fast forward and there isn't even a pause button for when I need a breather.

Ever since my parents moved closer to town, we've gotten a bit more adjusted but it’s also been tough. I don’t get as much help as I used to which is okay because we should be able to handle everything on our own. But it was always nice to have a helping hand. This next month will be our first one where we have to pay the bills entirely ourselves which is kind of scary. I’m a little nervous about making ends meet, but now that my husband has a job I’m hoping it lightens the load a bit. If not, then we’ll have to make some adjustments and cut back on a few things. Gotta do what you gotta do, right?

On the bright side, I’m learning how to cook! Well, sort of. Sure I still use boxed Velveeta skillets, and sometimes I cheat by using the precooked chicken tender strips, BUT I’m actually making full MEALS. You try looking after a toddler, folding laundry, doing the dishes, working on homework, AND making dinner within an hour. Not that easy my friends. So far I've made homemade cantina bowls, tacos, chicken alfredo, turkey burgers, various salads, pancakes, omelets, and wraps. Plenty of other stuff too, it would just take too long to list them all on here. It’s actually been pretty fun to learn though. I'm pretty happy to know that my family won't starve either, LOL! That's always a plus!

So that's about all I have for you. I know that this post isn't all that “meaningful” but I thought I’d at least update with something new. I have three weeks before finals so it’s time for me to put on my big girl panties and bunker down for some serious study sessions. After that I promise I’ll be back on the regular. Plus I've decided to take a lighter load next semester so I’ll at least have time to do other stuff (aka blog). Until then, bare with me & I hope this find all of you well!
