Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end..

Less than 24 hours until I am listening to the beautiful sounds of Explosions In the Sky..yay! I'm so not looking forward to the 5 and a half hour drive..but I know it will be worth it. Don't forget that tomorrow is April Fool's Day, everyone! Don't let nobody hand you no wooden nickels. I'm gonna be on the lookout for tricksters. On the flipside, I really need a trick to play on my husband..I already pulled the pregnancy thing last year so I can't do that again..I will have to think of something. 

I cooked falafels for supper..Judah walks in from work and tells me he needs something of substance to eat, and he's tired of eating fruits and vegetables..so it's 9:30..and he's ordering a pizza. men! If I ate that right now, I would have heartburn all night and never be able to sleep. 

I missed Swamp People..I wanted to watch it because some of those people are from not too far past the Plaquemine office where I work. Darn! 

I just found out today that another one of my co workers is going to work somewhere else..The PT that I usually work with is moving this summer..so that's 2 of my buddies leaving :-/ My boss just hired one new PT that I know everyone will get along with..he's really cool. He is about to graduate so all he has to do is pass his boards and he's good to go. It's gonna be a lot different at my job..but I'm looking forward to change. I'm excited that our New Roads office is starting to get a lot busier. That office is like my baby. I would love to own it one day. I would like to own it and hire a PT to work it..and I could work a few days a week, but still have the liberty to be off a few days during the week. I don't even know what it's like to have a week day off. I have been working/at school every day since..well since I started going to school I guess. I don't see the point right now in taking any days off during the week (I don't think I would be able to do that anyway, as we are busy in all of our offices right now), but I know when I have kids I'll want a few days off. 

That's enough boring rambles for one night..goodnight!

cravings..

I want meat. I want a big bacon cheeseburger. I would never mentally be able to consume an entire one because I would be thinking about how many calories were in it the whole time..I know I have a problem..but I'm only human! I don't really cook much meat at home..if it's ground meat it's either chicken or turkey..but I might finally make it over to 5 Guys one of these days and eat a big nasty greasy gross cheeseburger. There's nothing better!

I really really need some new music..I'm so tired of all of the music I have right now..I spend like 2 or more hours every day in my car..so I get tired of it fast..pandora radio helps (blink 182 and relient k are my favorite stations..Blink 182 is my guilty music pleasure..) but even they tend to play the same songs every other day. So, if any of you know of any new music out there..lemme know.

Also..can anyone give me some ideas of things that you eat for supper? I have like 197 recipes that I want to try..but I'm lazy this week and don't feel like doing that..I would just like to know what kinds of things you people are eating that I may not have thought of..?

nighty night bloggies.

boring.

My day..was boring. very boring. I went to work..came home..p90x'ed..made supper (well..it was half leftovers so that doesn't really count)..then watched the biggest loser. I also bought my ticket to see Eisley :] I'm real excited about that..but..there aren't any ticketmaster retail outlets near me..that sucks!

Today one of my patients told me that he didn't allow his son to play basketball this year because he has anger issues..and he can't sit through any sports event at FRA without getting yelled at, kicked out, or swung at. (I'm talking about the father btw, not the son..) How much would that suck? You can't play a sport that you like because you're dad hates every Ref there is in the state of Louisiana and might get in a fight with one..He also tried to fight his boss at one point..he be crazy. I can't imagine how this makes his wife and children feel..

Oh and I'm excited to see Explosions In the Sky on Friday..not excited for the drive..actually I wasn't really excited about going at all until today. I would have never gone to see them..but I got sucked in. And I think it will be a great show! And I found a ticketmaster retail outlet near the venue so if we are early I might just go and pick up my Eisley ticket..
Can you tell I was in a better mood today??

Take me home, I walk the night in the valley..

Sorry for the short post yesterday, blog..I think if I would have typed out everything I needed to say I might still be typing it at this very moment.
There are so many things in my life right now that frustrate me. In almost every area of my life. I can't do anything about any of it either..except pray. I can't change people or the way they think or act so all I can do is ask God to open their eyes to the world around them. I am the kind of person that always looks deeper at every situation..trying to see the root of it. Some people think that's a little overboard or crazy..but I need to know! It can be something so simple that a person will do..but I always try to find out why. I don't think it's a bad thing to do..The only downside to this is that I over analyze a lot of things..sometimes to the point where I will feel sick to my stomach-even if the situation has nothing to do with me. One time when I was in Junior High I had a friend call me and ask advice about something..and I kept trying to think of what to say to her (it was about a boy, and I had no idea what to say..) and I felt so bad and she finally said "Risa, I think you are more worried about my problem than I am". I was legitimately trying to help her, but I think she just wanted to gossip. Hm. Junior High girls.
Thankfully, I did some hardcore p90x today and got a lot of my frustration out..yeah, it's still there but I needed an outlet. And my legs are reeeeeeeal sore.
Then I made lemon chicken soup. It was soooo good! It didn't take very long to make either..it's a recipe from the lady on food network who makes healthy food..her name just slipped my mind but she has short hair..y'all know who I'm talkin about.
4 days til Explosions In the Sky!!

I'm begging you to be my escape..

I am completely emotionally and mentally exhausted.

Do you ever just want to run away??

The end will justify the pain it took to get us there..

I'm blogging early today..I'm going out to celebrate a friend's birthday tonight and I know I will get home too late and forget to do this!
So I pretty much feel like I didn't get anything done today..well I got one thing accomplished..I got fitted for a bridesmaids dress for my cousin's wedding. I was supposed to come home and clean my house, but my electricity went..so now instead of cleaning, I'm blogging..I'll clean as soon as I finish this! I absolutely love the blogs that both of my sister in laws just wrote..they are so true and I am happy that they both realize that they have found a treasure in Charlie and Nicholas. I can say this because I have had my fair share of crappy relationships. The one I was in right before I met my husband was the worst one..I think everyone that reads this knows that so I really don't have to say much about it. We brought out the WORST in each other ALL OF THE TIME. I have never been treated so disrespectfully in my entire life..I have never known anyone that could make me feel like the ugliest, fattest (literally, he told me every day), grossest..I just don't understand why I stayed there for so long. It was definitely a soul tie that lasted for almost 10 years of my life. I knew I was stuck in that relationship and I didn't have the strength to leave it. I prayed every single night for God to help me find a way out. Then I met Judah..and he literally took me out of that situation. It wasn't easy but he made it a little easier and helped me through a lot of it..He was very sweet, kind, patient, caring, giving..He had a lot of the qualities that I admire in a man.
I honestly didn't know what I did to deserve a man that would treat me that way..He stayed with me through a lot of crap that I had to deal with and he didn't push me or get frustrated with me. He just loved me. And now, I do the same for him. I am here for the long run and I know that we will go through our crap, but we are supposed to be there through the crap..that's the whole point! At least, that's what I made a vow to do on our wedding day. I love Judah so much and I thank God daily for him.

And my head told my heart, let love grow..

I'm so tired so I think this one will be a short one..
Today I worked, took Ethan to Paradise Smoothie so he could get nasty tapioca balls, came home and changed and took the kids bowling with a bunch of people from my church..we had a great time. I'm so thankful to my family for loving the boys so much..Especially my brothers..the kids love them so much and can't imagine living without Charlie aka "Link" for 2 years when he moves..I'm gonna have to apologize in advance to Nicky for them driving him nuts to play video games and baseball with them!! I'm going to spend like 5 minutes with my husband now before he falls asleep..goodnight!

Spend my nights alone, catching falling starts to give to you love..

I don't really spend my nights alone..just had these lyrics in my head..gotta love Allison Krauss :]
I still haven't seen her live yet and I need to! Maybe she will be at jazz fest or something this year..
Today I got a visit from an old friend from high school..it was so good to see her. It made me think about all of the crazy things that we did back then..we had so much fun together. She was telling me that she is newly single..which she hasn't been in..well..for as long as I can remember. I really don't know what I would do if I was single..I don't think I've ever really been single since as far back as I can remember! I mean maybe I was for like, a few months or something..but I always had a boyfriend. What's so funny to me is that after I got married I kind of regretted not having that time to be able to find out what I wanted out of life or who I really was. But now, I don't regret it anymore. I have learned so much about myself after being married. I learned how to be strong and how to stand my ground on things that I really believe in. I honestly don't know if I would have done that when I was single. I'm sure I would have eventually..but being married forced me to find out what I really believe, and fast. And how to deal with things..of course I still have plenty to learn. Thanks God we have our entire lives to do that!
I noticed today that I have this irrational fear that my house is going to catch on fire..(What a subject change, right??) Every single morning I make sure like 10 times before I leave that my hair straightener is off (then I text Judah after I leave for him to check it) and I make sure the dryer isn't running or the dishwasher..and I check the stove all of the time. I started doing this about a year ago. A family that I knew had a fire in their home about a year and a half ago (maybe 2 years..?). They weren't home, and their animals were in the house. I can barely think about it without getting upset because they lost their animals. So when I leave Vega at home, she is in her kennel..and all I think about is if there is a fire at our apartment, no one will know she's stuck in there and she won't be able to get out..I know this is so crazy because I know it won't happen..it's so stupid that I think about it all the time! I don't know what I would do if I lost my Vega! She is my sweetheart..she was there for me when I needed someone..during the hardest time of my life. She was my buddy. I know some people won't understand that, but we don't have children (together) yet, so she's my baby girl. I'm gonna work on this fear because it's so stupid!

Yay tomorrow is Friday!
nighty night.

Cause a ring don't mean nothing, if you can't haul the weight..

I LOVE the song The Weight by Thrice..it's where the name of my blog comes from..this song really means so much to me. Check it out! (I feel like I could have written it..)
Lately my husband has been telling his friends "Uh oh, my wife has the babyitis" (which makes no sense..-itis means inflammation, as I recall from my medical terminology class..and there's no such thing as inflammation of babies..?) Anywho, I guess he's right..maybe it's because I have A LOT of friends with babies right now, or ones that are pregnant..like 20 of my facebook friends have babies right now and it's driving me crazy..My husband thinks that we "aren't ready", which I say to him what you are supposed to say, "no one is ever really ready!" Of course, he's thinking logically..things like, we don't have a room to put a baby in, we have only been married for a year and a few months..well he goes on and on but the only legitimate reason I see is that we don't have a room right now! But we will in August..and that's less than 9 months away..
I actually can't believe that I'm even thinking about having a baby..of course I always wanted one..I don't know many females who don't..but I never allowed myself to think much about it. It wasn't until I looked deeper that I understood my fear..I have really great parents. They would do any and everything for me. I had a good childhood. My father is a farmer, so he worked allll day and most of the time wouldn't come in til dark..so, my mom pretty much raised us. We spent 90% of our time with my mom (maybe it was just me..my brothers, most definitely my younger brother spent a lot more time with my dad learning how to do boy things). Fast forward to my life today..well my husband works 80+ hours per week..some nights not getting home until well after 9:00. One of my biggest fears was that I would have to be like my mom..to raise children by myself..to not have the support of a husband, to not have him there to discipline, love..anything. Annnd now that's me. I'm gonna have to do what I feared the most. And the only thing I can do is pray and believe that he will have a different job one day. A job where he won't work 80 hours a week, and a job that he won't come home completely exhausted from at the end of the day! There are a lot of other concerns that go in with this whole baby situation..but I don't have time or enough space to even start!
Babies!

When my thoughts drift to you..

Yay only 15 more days until Band Of Horses!
And only 9 days until Explosions In the Sky!

I started p90x today..it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I did the cardio dvd..which is 30 minutes of karate, plyometrics, boxing..and other random things put together. Yeah, it was hard..but not as hard as I thought it would be. I'm not really that great at sticking to something like this every day..but I learned some new exercises that I can throw in with the ones I already do..I think I'm gonna cheat on my no sweets fast tomorrow..we are celebrating a co worker's birthday, and instead of asking for a cake like usual (that I could pass up with no problem) she decided she wanted Michael Morgan cookies. I can seriously eat an entire batch of them without thinking twice about it..so I'm gonna have the cookie. and I'm not gonna beat myself up about it. I'm sorry that I always talk about food or working out..I just feel like this is like my journal, and it's what I'm dealing with at this moment!

I'm really tired now..and I'm gonna go watch Lights Out with my hubby. It's our show! (besides Southpark, and secretly the Bachelor!)

turn the lights off, carry me home..

Ohhh Monday. I am so happy that you are almost over. My Monday went by really fast, so I won't complain any more. Actually my work week started off really great..the very first patient I saw at 7 this morning is a middle aged woman with back pain..as I was treating her she told me something so simple, but something that many of us forget. She told me how she has been having this back pain for quite some time, and different ways that she has tried to deal with it (this particular patient is the kind of patient who can describe the pain exactly, what time it was the worst, what time she turned over in bed to alleviate the pain..you get the picture!). Then she said " You know, I have tried everything to get over this back problem..but there's one thing that I forgot to do..just pray and ask God to take my back pain away." She said it so matter of factly..like duh why wouldn't that be the first thing that I would do? And then she told me that her back actually felt the best it had in such a long time. Sometimes we think that even the smallest of problems are trivial things to God..but he cares about every single tiny detail in our lives. That's the first time in my..8 years..? of working in PT that a patient told me anything like that. 

I was hoping to start P90x today..but when I got home from work the tv wouldn't turn on..turns out something is wrong with every single outlet in our living room..so I had to wait on Judah to get an extension cord. Crazy. By that time I had to get supper started..I know some people don't like making chili if it's not cold, but I had so many vegetables that I needed to use in my fridge so I just made it..and it was awesome. That's one food that I am confident will always turn out tasting great..you can't really mess it up and can add any and every vegetable you want. Looks like I will start p90x tomorrow! 

My husband is watching one of those Resident Evil movies right now and it's pretty disgusting..and the acting is bad..and the effects are horrible. I don't understand why he loves it so much. He just keeps saying "The storyline is awesome"..must be a guy thing..

Until tomorrow..

I never said I was brave..

Dear blog,
I am so very exhausted! Sundays are always like that for us. Today, I woke up in a horrible mood. I was still sleepy, didn't feel like getting up for church..sneezed like 20 times while getting ready for church, ran out of church outfits to wear..just had a really aggravating morning. I went to church and it was really good..glad I didn't skip out on it like I really wanted to! Some things you just have to do even if you don't want to, right? Even though it was great, I was still in a bad mood. I attributed my horrible mood to the few bites of red velvet cake that I ate last night. (that I was forced into eating!!) I had to do the grocery shopping and laundry thing, then we went to pick up the boys and head to the country. I was in the worst mood and felt like the worst step mom ever because I didn't want to talk or hang out with anyone..While at my parent's house I continued to be a bad step mom because the kids wanted to play bug-opoly but we all said that we were busy visiting with my sister in law's mother and sister that we haven't seen in awhile..A little while later my brother tells the kids he is going to take them frogging, to which they immediately said "NO WAY." There was no way that they were going to touch a huge bullfrog! I was still too busy being aggravated and told my husband that they HAD to go because they are boys and that's what boys do. So they were forced to go. After a few tears, they were in the truck on the way to the ponds. I was so proud of them for going because I know they were afraid..legitimately too, because I saw those tears before they went. This is really a huge step for them because they are usually afraid to do those things.
What finally took me out of my bad mood was when they got home..they had the best time and talked about it for the next hour. My husband later told me that he had to have a talk with one of them and let them know that he doesn't always want to do some things that are scary..but he has to do them anyway, and it happens more often the older you get. I feel like he needs to learn how to be brave from his daddy (and from Jesus and the Holy Spirit, too). After they finished my husband pulled his son to the side and told him how proud he was of him that he went. It made me realize that my husband really is a good father and I can't wait to have children. He is far from perfect, but he always knows what to say at the right time. Overall, we had a great day..we got to eat crawfish (among a few other tasty things my mom cooked), spend time with some Galbo's (Mrs. Jane is the best storyteller thanks to her awesome accent), and overcome some fears. A good Sunday.

We turn the pages left to right..

Today was such a great day. It started really early..but that's okay because I'm gonna crash as soon as I finish blogging. I woke up early and went to my friends Sam and Jesse's house..We had green waffles (well not me, I hate waffles!! but they were cute!) and a breakfast pizza, which was awesome (props to Jesse's cousin Ski who made it). After breakfast, we were off to the parade! My brother and nephew came, which was awesome because apparently my nephew loves parades! and beads! We had such a fun time.
Afterwards, we hung out at my friends' house and just sat outside and listened to music and it was probably the best day I've had all year. The weather was beautiful (but realllly hot) and I got a horrible sunburn..like I can see the outline of the beads that I was wearing..its really sad.
Tonight my husband and I went on a date..we went to Kona Grill and the food was great like always..while we were waiting on the check one of the managers was walking around and he stopped at our table with a huge piece of red velvet cake..he asked "Don't you think this cake looks so good??" Well of course it looked amazing because I haven't had sweets in a week..then he said "What would you say if I asked you to take this piece of cake home?" Umm really? And he set it in front of me and said it was on the house..So I pretty much had to eat a few bites of it because he was nice enough to give it to us for free..so thanks manager of Kona Grill for doing that to me!! And it tasted so amazing..and I broke my sweets fast. I made it almost 6 whole days, though!!
We also went and walked around in Urban Outfitters afterwards because I want like 99% of the stuff in there..I hate how expensive that store is. Why is it like the only store that I really love the clothes in, but can barely afford it?? Is there any other stores in BR (besides Forever 21) that I can find cute clothes in that I can afford to buy??

It's Friday night and I feel alright..

Actually..I am really exhausted and I feel really tired! Sorry if I say this every day..it's cause I wait until late to blog :]

New font time! I like this one. Today I did 3 new things. Firrrst..today I got on the treadmill to do my 1 mile that I normally do and decided to open my couch to 5k app on my phone (that I haven't paid any attention to in a little over a year!) So I started it..and after the first couple of jogs (on the first day you walk for 90 seconds then jog for 60 seconds for 20 minutes) I just kept on jogging..I had a lot of things on my mind and I didn't realize that I had jogged through 2 walk times..so I kept on run-ning. And I just ran a mile and didn't really think about it the whole time. Sounds pretty easy to run a mile, right? Well it's not easy for me but I did it! I look forward to getting on that treadmill now and I wish I had one at home-yes I had one at home before and only got on it about 3 times..but now they make them so that when you are walking or running you can't even tell it's on bc it's so quiet..you don't have to turn the tv on volume like 100 just to hear it. And who wants to run with the tv blaring and you still can't really hear it anyway??

I also went to see my CPA and it looks like Judah and I will be paying..a very HUGE sum back to the government this year. Like it's so much that you wouldn't believe me if I told you how much we owe. Like I could buy a car with how much we owe. Like I'm gonna stop thinking about it because it blows my mind. Thankfully, we will be able to pay it and be okay..and I'm extremely blessed and thankful for that :]

Stephanie and Ethan were talking about tapioca pearl ball tea all day today. I'm still not sure what tapioca is..I think Stephanie told me it was starch from rice or something but I'm still convinced that she was telling me a story and they are really eyeballs. I ain't takin no wooden nickels from that girl. (had to put a New Roads saying in there :) So Ethan decided his quest for the day would be to find someplace that sold this tea..we found one! It was on the corner of Florida and Sherwood and I don't remember the name..but Ethan got a milk tea with tapioca balls in it..sounds disgusting!! And looked disgusting!! I got a weird energy smoothie that was strawberry and banana..never had one of those before and I'm convinced it had crack in it. I laughed hysterically for the next 30 minutes at absolutely nothing..or at Ethan drinking pearl balls..which looked so disgusting that I gagged when I saw one go up his straw. He loved it. He's sick.

After re-watching the SNL with Zack Galifianakis (sp?) as the guest host we decided to make a Whole Foods trip..which is always fun to do if you are with Ethan Leonard. I finally tried the turkey and brie panini with the fig spread on it and I loved it! It was really good. I know they have been having this forever but I never get food there so I never tried it. We had lots of fun fieldtrips today and it made up for my crappy day yesterday..I also got some gluten free flour, which I want to make some banana nut bread with and a special prize for my baby brother, Mr. Wilson, which I will try to get to him asap.

St. Patty's parade tomorrow y'all! 

Nighty night!

Baby, you've got me all wrong..

Oops, almost forgot to blog today..I am so tired right now but I'm gonna blog! I have been tired all day long..
Last night I watched the first episode of the new season of Sister Wives..I honestly can't wrap my brain around this family or their crazy life. Maybe that's because I don't know much about being a Fundamentalist Mormon..or what exactly they believe. But I still just can't understand it. That's all I'm gonna say about that..
On another note..I feel like venting for a few seconds so here I go..I can't handle sitting in traffic anymore. I can't.do.it.anymore. Today I left work close to 4:30..I was happy because it was my husband's early night at work which means I was gonna cook him this manly supper (there was bacon involved..) Oh but ya know what time I got home?? 6:15. really. really?? This wasn't just today..it's EVERY day. every single day. When I get home and rush to start supper, my husband texts me to say he has customers that want to come in at 6:30. Have I ever mentioned how much I love his job?? The upside is that I had time for supper to cook before he got home..the downside is that we are both always so exhausted/aggravated by the time we get home that we don't communicate much..before this gets too deep I'm gonna stop because I was only gonna vent for one paragraph and I think I'm done for the day.
Sorry I don't have anything uplifting to end this blog..tomorrow will be a better day.

Dos.

Day 2!
So I had a funny dream last night..I dreamed that I was pregnant and about to have the baby..Judah brings me to the hospital and the doctor says, "umm you are actually having 5 babies..not just one." So Judah leaves the hospital and comes back right before I go into labor with a stack of paperwork..he tells me that I have to sign it all so that we will have health insurance before the babies were born..So I started signing away then I woke up. It's funny because something like that would so happen in real life. Leave it to Judah to be thinking about that kind of stuff in a time of crisis. I guess it's a good thing that he is that way because I don't always plan/think things out very thoroughly. I am very blessed to have him as my husband. (and also very blessed that we DO have health insurance already.)

I still haven't eaten any sweets..I want some oreos so bad..but I won't do it! I actually got on the scale this morning and lost 4 pounds since I last weighed myself (which was like, a month ago). So I was pretty excited about that. Around a month ago I started exercising a lot more..about 30 minutes per day. It's not much but it's just about all I can fit in, and it really makes a difference! After all, swim suit season is coming up really soon! I have about 7 more pounds that I would like to lose..I gained about 15 after I got married
:-/ Overall, I really just want to feel stronger. The other day I had to stretch a patient's leg, and after only about 10 minutes of that both of my arms were shaking because I was so weak. That's pretty sad! And it wasn't even a heavy or overweight leg..it was almost a chicken leg! So I broke out my weights and swiss ball.
I think I've bored you all enough for one day! Until tomorrow..

Beware the Ides of March..

Today marks the first day of my daily blogging..yay!
I'm a little exhausted so my creative juices aren't flowing very well right now..I just got home from work and immediately started on supper without sitting for one second (after sitting in traffic for 1+ hours)
But..I blog on. This time change has got me all crazy..I still think it's early when I get home and that I have all this time to get supper finished..but I don't!! In walks the hubby and the zuchinni, squash, and round steaks aren't done. It's gonna take a little getting used to.
Also..I'm trying really hard not to eat any sweets this week. Now I know that sounds really easy to a lot of people probably..but not to me!! At home we have those little chocolate cadbury eggs and mint oreos..at work we have reeses, mr. goodbars..I could go on and on..oh and thanks to my mother we have small cakes with tirimasu on top..geez thanks mom you couldn't have picked a better week to bring them.
I'm not so much doing it for health reasons (although I REALLY should) I'm doing it because of my huge lack of self control. I really have none. It's kinda sad, really.  But, I'm working on it! In other aspects of my life, also. It is a fruit of the spirit, after all..maybe I will try to work on each one over the next few months. I know I need a lot more of them in my life! If I say I'm a Christian then I should have every one of the fruits in my life..Or I should clarify that I should TRY to have them all because Lord knows I have my moments when I am faaaar from perfect ha. But how can I say I have the Holy Spirit if I am not showing any of those fruits in my life? Good thing we have every day for the rest of our lives to start over with a clean slate.
But all I'm thinking about right now is that tirimasu :]

Everyone else is doing it..

Yay blogs! I am so excited that all of the 5 people that I follow are blogging more now..that shows how much I have to do..I know there are about 5 or 6 books in a stack on my bedside table that I need to be finishing..buuut I'll get to them at some point..
Apparently, starting on March 15, my cousin Ashleigh decided that we are all going to try to blog.every.single.day. Every day! Do I even have that many thoughts?? It will be a challenge for me..probably a good one. My brain needs some exercising these days..most days I feel like I do the same thing over and over and my brain doesn't actually do any work.
I have been thinking lately that I would love to join a sewing/quilting/knitting/something of that nature class. How would one go about finding one of these in the Baton Rouge/New Roads area? One that involves women my age? Or under the age of 70? I need a good hobby.

Tonight I made the best baked chicken-ever! (Maybe it was because I threw some sweet potatoes in with the carrots and celery-sooo good!)

Also, Eisley's new album The Valley has been my obsession this week..It's my favorite new album of the year-so far! It's only March :]
However, today I think that I started to feel like I was Sherri (one of the singers) and everything that she was singing about was happening to me, and it was making me sad so I had to stop..(I put on some worship music and then instantly felt better). All of these things that they sing about have happened to me before in relationships, so I can definitely relate to every single song..which is great because that's what most songwriter's are aiming for right? For their fans to feel what they are singing about..and I felt it.

In other news, anyone want a cat???? He's driving us insaaaaane.
