So I-mailed Sharlee today telling her that I didn't think I was going to make a very good blogger, because I have absolutely nothing to blog about. However I think that may just be the beauty of a blog. Maybe you don't need anything to blog about:) What it comes down to really, is that life if pretty stagnant right now with it being summer. My week consists of work, the gym, "So You Think You Can Dance", and spending time with Fenix and Ken. Oh yeah, did I mention getting incredibly fed up with the dog and Wednesday night class with Sharlee? Because those have been highlights of the summer as well:) I just possibly wish there were more classes to take with Sharlee. The summer was incredibly busy with house hunting until the end of June and now we're just waiting to close, which is something I'm really worried about. We are pre approved and we haven't bought anything on credit that's new, so we should be fine, but I'm still freaking out over it. Less than 3 weeks, in fact closer to 2, and we'll hopefully be homeowners!!:) I'm really excited about that prospect and then incredibly nervous. Please don't let anything break in this first year!
I'm at work writing this. Just a little bit ago Darla was cleaning out here drawer and she came across Ken and I's wedding invite. We have some extra's at home, but I took it from her anyway. It's hard to believe it's almost been a year. I have no idea what we'll be doing for our anniversary, but I'm excited for it. I can predict eating the top layer of the wedding cake and drinking the bottle of wine we've had setting there all year, but other than that I'm not sure. All in all it's been a really good year. There have definitely been a lot of ups and downs. School takes up so much of my time, sometimes I feel like I never get to actually spend quality time with Ken. That's why doing nothing this summer and doing it together has been so nice. Dealing with Fenix's mom and step dad has also been challenge. It hasn't really affected our marriage, but it has affected us. It's just a difficult, heated situation, because they care for Fenix just as much as we do, so naturally when people aren't seeing eye to eye all the time, it makes things difficult. It's definitely taken some getting used to, knowing that no matter how good of a parent or step parent that you are, you will most likely always be scrutinized for something. I do however, feel like that's getting better and I'm hoping it will continue to. Although we will never be good friends with Fenix's mom and step dad it would be nice to at least be friendly, for Fenix's sake. It would be nice if things were good enough that school functions didn't have to be awkward or good enough that if there was ever a minor holiday, like the 4th of July or something, that Fenix wanted both sets of parents to be at, he could have it. I don't want him to feel like he has to compartmentalize. He has two families and I want him to feel like it's O.K. to talk about either one whenever he wants. I think things will gradually get better and better and they really have. With everyone being more organized it leaves less room for misunderstandings and accusation as well, and I think everyone's working on that. And to think, I said I had nothing to blog about. Well, I should get back to work. This may be a bit messy, because I'm going to post it before I proofread. I know, I'm a sorry excuse for an English major:)
