Well, baby steps worked and I survived the week and had an incredible weekend. Had the honor of attending the 37th Annual Right To Life Banquet last night with my man. Enjoyed dinner, fellowship, and keynote speaker Andy Barr. Renewed my passion to be more vocal about the Prolife movement and I'm looking forward to getting to speak to a few youth groups soon. I've been searching through Pinterest lately, trying to find nifty organizing tips, because that's my main challenge this week- Get Organized. This upcoming week is going to be special. My man and I celebrate our 1yr 8mnth anniversary on Wednesday, and it's special because it's a leap year, which means we actually get to celebrate it this year and he has the day off. I think we have plans to see Acts of Valor and probably dinner somewhere. I can't believe March 1st is this week too, and I am stoked beyond words for spring! This WILL be the year I become a decent gardener and grow lots of foods to cook with. Maybe I will search Pinterest for some garden tips too, but for now I'm off for a nice Sunday nap.

You know that feeling when you have a million and one things to do, and you don't know how you are going to get it all done? That's me right now. Laundry needs washing, speeches need writing, room needs cleaning, there are papers to file and deadlines to meet....oh, and bills, budgets, and other fun grown up financial things. I have chicken in the fridge soaking, before I fry it for dinner tonight. I guess that was productive. Overwhelmed and behind, mostly due to a sickness I have been fighting off for over a week now. Learning to prioritize and constantly checking off and adding things to a to-do list has caused a massive headache. I did manage to remember to make the bed this morning, only to mess it up with a short nap. So many things piling up, and trying to squeeze in more, such as exercise and date nights? However, not skimping on my devotional time has been the best encourager to my mood and productivity. Jesus said "Be of good cheer; I have overcome the world." (John 16:33) Really, that verse breaks down everything for me as- what's the big deal? Why are you stressing? And I chug along with baby steps, one check mark at a time, because my Savior already overcame it all.

So as you can tell, I have a new site. It is a work in progress, but I think it will be worth all the work behind it. Everything from updates on our life, recipe reviews, how to's, movie reviews, etc. Like I said, it is a work in progress, but I'm excited and I hope you are too! :)
