done with one and movin' to another




A new picture! Ya I couldn't get my ring on.





Ok, I finally have a minute to post something.


Well in the last month Josh and I finished the books we were reading (Foe Men Only and FOr Women Only). The night we finished we talked briefly about what part of the books impacted us the most. We both agreed that the chapters that talked about the different ways our brains process information were the most beneficial. I now feel that when we get into an argument, instead of just going at it we try to make it clear weather we really disagree or just don't understand due to the way our brain is processing. We now try to make things clear and to the point instead of assuming that the other one know what we are thinking. WE ARE NOT MIND READERS!!!!!


We have passed the books on to Josh's sister and her husband who are coming up on there first year of marriage and are starting to see themselves come out their "brand new marriage" stage. So I sat down and talked with Josh's sister and she thought that the books would help them, so that where they are now.


We started reading The Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsey last night. We got to page 30 and are just starting to get into the chapters on how to get out of debt. I like reading the stories they really do give me a feeling that "humm this sounds like it could really work!". For Josh the book so far is giving him hope that getting out of the money problems we have does not have to be so far down the road and that it can be done.




I go back to work next week so I will have more time to post new thing this has been a very busy month for all of us!

What are you thinking

OOOH man!!

So i was talking to some women to day about marriage, and one girl that is engaged was saying that her and her boyfriend are trying to have a baby!!!!
When I heard this I not so politely asked her WHAT ARE YOU THINKING!
Her response was "My aunt and her husband have NEVER been married. They have had two children together, five total. They live with each other and don't plan on getting married. But their family is very secure and stable. Her kids (my cousins) are now 18 and 19. They are doing well. So as far as us deciding that we shouldn't rush into a marriage, that s a personal decision. But thank you for your words of wisdom."
OH she is also only 20 and her boyfriend is 21! There is another reason to be married before she has kids.

Then she told me i was wrong and tyred to be an adult by saying "i'm just gunna say "ok" prindle. Right now I cant give you a full response as to why I don't agree or to confirm or justify your concerns because I am at work. But I will. but for now, thanks. "


Oh my Gosh, what are people thinking these days!!
