Things I Am Loving Right Now and Things I Am Not

  • I love that I finally know my way around where we live.  I grew up here so I know back ways and short cuts and it makes me feel important!  For the last three years I have had to learn Plano and I still wasn't very good.
  • I love not paying to drive on the highway.  And I love that our credit card is not charged $120 each month in tollway fees.  I also love that it takes Jordan exactly the same amount of time to get to and from work as before...FOR FREE!
  • I love that I basically have a park in my backyard.  Griff and I play outside for hours each day.  He currently is learning to dig in the dirt.  He gets dirt in his hands and then brings it to me to show me.  I call these things he brings, treasures.  It makes him laugh.
  • SYTYCD is back on.  This show makes me insanely happy.  And I am even happier when Jordan agrees to watch it with me...Like last night!
  • I love that my mom is right down the street and my grandparents are closer too!  I have already seen people more often than usual!
  • I love that we are planning on having pool parties all summer long!
  • I love that Jordan's birthday is coming soon.  I like it when our ages are only one number apart and not two!
  • I love our friends and hope we continue to see them often this summer!
  • I love that Griffin is really communicating with us now.  He repeats and copies everything and points to things he wants, says "that", "uh oh", runs to the door when I say "let's go." and takes things back and forth between Jordan and I when we ask him to. (like Griff go give this to Daddy."
Ok Things I don't love.
  • I don't love the endless amounts of services we keep having to buy....alarm, lawn care, pool, endless trips to Home Depot, Lowes, and Walmart!  I just want to blink and everything be perfect!
  • I don't love the multiplying number of boxes still left to unpack.
  • I don't love that sister lives a world away and there is no "plans" for her to come visit!
  • I don't love that the grass has to be mowed ALL the time, and that my flower beds have no flowers.
  • And I don't love that all of my shows are now on summer break!!  Thank goodness for SYTYCD!
What do you love/not love?  We have a blessed life and I am thankful for EVERYTHING....even the things I don't so much love! :)
