Saturday Night

This weekend has been very funny, it's almost as if Bailey has taken a dive bomb right into her terrible twos and guess what, she won't be 1 for even 3 more days!!! Yikes. I only say this because yesterday was a day I will not soon forget. Unless there are more of them to come, lets hope not.
So Bailey started her day out about 9:00 am, not unusual but she was at the Ranch with Grandmwah and PawPaw. She did not take a nap at all, I'm talking like nothing, zilch, nada, zero, nine, NONE all day. We got in the car to go to dinner and she finally fell asleep right before we got there, this is already almost 6:00 PM. (I don't consider this a nap even though she woke up shortly after b/c this should have been her bed time that day) Anyway, she woke up, we ate dinner, we went to Walmart, we drove back (with Bailey crying and screaming the whole way) to the Ranch and it all went wacky from there.
Bailey was SO excited to be back. We put her on the floor with the new puppy Fiona and they rolled around licking eachother for a few minutes, both being a little weird. Then Bailey got up and was just running everywhere. She is still new to the WALKING thing so running was a site to see. She would throw her arms behind her making her look very arrow dynamic and just start going. This would cause her to fall several times and since at this points she is very tired and out of sorts, she would try to get up but it resultred in a lot of time with her head by the ground and her butt all up in the air. I was laughing so hard to see her spinning in all sorts of circles, almost break dancing and doing barrel rolls all at the same time.
This went on for a good 15 minutes or so, she was more hyper than I have ever seen her to this point. She was so excited about something though, calming down was not inher plans. Changing her diaper was like roping a calf, I was sweaty by the end of that adventure.
Anyway, all that to say, it was interesting. We are still experiencing new things all the time with that girl. I'm sure there will be many more stories to come.

Walk it out!

Bailey has decided that today is the day she wants to walk instead of crawl. She still has a ton of plops but she instead of crawling, she gets back up and takes more steps still it happens again. She is a goofy little tyke and we love her. Hope this is funny too you, sorry about the hysterical laugh in the background. I'm a mom and I think my kid is awesome.

snuggle time

Bailey wasn't feeling well this last week so as much as it was completely sad for me to see her not feel well and not being herself, it was a WONDERFUL time for me to get to snuggle with my baby. I have pictures of her sleeping on me when she was first here (in the world) but she has been a VERY active child and likes to look around and be nosey MUCH more than she likes to cuddle or chill out. This last weekend I got to love on my baby girl just holding her and singing to her, dad got some of this great time too. She seems to like it on him more but I don't let myself believe (even if it is true) that Bailey is a bone-a-fide Daddy's girl.
Bailey is turing one at the end of the month and with that time approaching so quickly, I'm having to pinch myself, I'm in denial that it really could have been a year ago since this all went down.
So Bailey is back to her normal self, feeling well and definitely NOT snuggling anymore. She is walking more and more everyday, exploring new things and making me laugh A LOT. Yes, I realize I have been using a lot of caps lock in this post but hey, I'm SO emphatic about these things.

50 years!

To think about 50 years makes my brain hurt. This is double how long I have been alive! I can not in my little brain really fathom what 50 years of life would be like, much less 50 years of MARRAIGE. My grandparents Jim and June Strickland just celebrated their 50 year anniversary this last weekend. What a cool cool thing to get to celebrate. Josh and I have been married 4 years and we have seen alot change in our country and have experienced a lot of change with in our household, so thinking about what my grandparents have gotten to see and experience is beyond where my thoughts can travel. I have truly enjoyed hearing their story and seeing pictures of their journey together as they have accomplished so much together.
Happy life of Marrige Grandma and Grandpa!! (it's been longer than 50 years now so I can say that to encompass the last few days as well)
I'm having a hard time imagining what I may be like in 25 years when I hit my 50th birthday or what Josh and I will be like in 46 years at our 50th anniversary but I pray that it is something great. I hope our story is one that not only looks good to our kids and grandkids but to those we see and interact with on a day to day basis. I pray that our marriage points people to Christ and that we model to those we meet what Holy Matrimony is. We fail, and horribly at times but by Gods grace we get back up and I hope our legacy shares that story as well.

Weekend Fun

Friday night....got off work, didn't go to rainy football game, instead played radicool games with some friends.

Saturday night..... I worked till 3:15, Josh worked till 10, I napped, we went to pick up Bailey from my parents real late.

Sunday.... invite a friend to church day, we brought Kassy and Corbit, they really seemed to enjoy themselves. Lunch was good, then we played ERS and the "word association game" ha ha. After that, we went to walmart, cooked dinner for my parents and hung out with them for a while.

Sucessfull weekend I would say.

Books Galore

So I've gotten back into the swing of reading some. I spent time at 3 different bookstores over the weekend. I bought some new books and I've been reading some older ones. I actually just finished a book yesterday called Babywise the second one. It's not really called "the second one" I just don't know what it's called. It is a good book, teaches some things on training children so you have to do less retraining as you go. Hopefully its stuff I can put to work in our lives, we'll see.
I am also reading 3 other books right now, you know, one for the bathroom, one before bed and the other whenever I feel like it.
I am reading Grace gone Wild which I am enjoying. It's so far about Grace and not using it as a go a head and sin ticket, and it's not something we earn either... hard to explain with out being very far into the book.
Another book I am reading is Crazy Love. I started it a while back but now that our youth group is doing some sermon series based on it I figured I should pick it back up.
The third book is called Sexy Girls: How Hot is Too Hot? A good book to read when dealing with teenage girls. Is it OK to dress sexy? What is the difference in Sexy and Stylish and Attractive? These are questions we will be answering. I'm wondering if this is a book written by a man under a girls name.

I'm still loving my church, meeting new people all the time, getting to know some better than others but loving it nonetheless. I am getting to know the youth girls I am working with a little better and it's making things so much more fun. They are great and I really enjoy meeting with them as well as teaching them. We are high schoolers now and it's a whole new world. I say we because I moved up with these girls who were in 8th grade last year so we together have made the transition to High School and oh what a different world it is. I'm totally excited about it though and can't wait to REALLY get in with the girls. God is going to do some stinking radical things in their lives and I'm looking forward to all that may entail.

For those of you "keeping up with us" through this blog from far away places, we love you and miss you and I'm sorry I don't do a very good job at keeping you up to date and more a part of our everyday lives.

Ummm other news.... we are watching the Cosby show season one, disk two right now for fun. Josh and I have gotten to go one a few dates lately that have kept our love fresh and kickin'.
I have still been enjoying cooking although I have not blogged about any of that lately, my creative juices have not been bursting out as of late.

OK, I'm out!
Bye

Baby Baby

Amy Grant anyone? Kidding, I have nothing to say about that. Here are some pictures of Bailey. Yes we accidently skipped the 8 month old photo shoot.

Busy week

It's been a busy week for me this week. It started out with Bailey and I going to my parents Ranch for the day. We had a good time, meet some of the new family members.

After that, I worked Tuesday and went to bed early which was super sweet.

Wednesday I played Guitar Hero World tour and you better believe me when I say " I rocked it HARD!" Did you believe me? Meh, ok.

Thursday was back to the grind at the ole job and then just some at home time with Josh and Baister. One of our dear friends had surgery that night so we spent some time praying for her and her husband. Friday I got to go spend some time with them at their home which was good times for me. Josh missed out and well you know he was jealous, AND we all know what I say about that.... "Jealousy is a stinky, stinky cologne." He got to join us saturday and sunday to hang with those folks though. Word.

Today is Dad's 52nd birthday HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD!!!! We got him a funny cow poop related card, a farm workers shirt and I took this picutre of Bailey for him. She is wearing his boots and my mom's hat. When I gave him the picture he just passed it around with a partial grin on his face thinking it was cute and all. It wasn't until about an hour or so later he found out it wasn't just a post card but it was actually Bailey. That made it more special. Here's that picture.

Thanks for stickin' it out with me not having blogged in a while.

I'm sure I will be having much more to blog about coming up, things are about to be changing and life is about to become more interesting for the Balogh Bunch so you will want to stay in the loop!

Love yall!

My stupid mouth....

Do you ever feel like you just talk to much? I don't think this is a problem that most people have but man, it's me all over the place. I don't even feel like I shuld post this blog because in essence, it's me "talking AGAIN".
I have great friends that are most patient for sure. Every time I hang up the phone or get done "chatting" with someone I feel it. I have once again dominated the conversation. I can't shut up. I want to be a good listener and to some degree I think I am but it must come across to other people as being a know it all and "she can't even wait till I'm done talking to say something else"
I am totally convicted by this.... Brenda, be quiet, let others speak, you will learn a lot. Brenda, be quiet, let God speak to you. Brenda, be quiet, listen and let others share their burdens. Brenda, shut your mouth and don't make this awkward, you don't know everything.
I've always been a talker. I can go on for days probably and I most likely sound stupid for the ways I can go around in circles, most likely contradicting myself at every bend.
This is not being mean to myself or feeling "condemned" but just a writen reminder to put others first, that even means in conversation. Be selfLESS, realize my stories aren't always the best ones. Let other's wisdom fall on me. Let me learn from lives of friends, parents, coworkers and the like.
The end.

Games

If anyone knows me, they know I am a gamer. I love games. The end.


Ok just kidding. This blog post is basically about games. As far as I can remember, I have always liked games, I used to play Mill Bornes at one grandparents house, yhatzee at another and Agrivation at my great grandparents house. Those are some very early childhood memories. Even now I like games, this week alone I got to play several. God has blessed Josh and I with friends that also enjoy games. Good clean fun. Today I played Hillarium, Things and Settlers of Catan. Josh played Snorta, Hit or Miss and Settlers of Catan. Earlier this week we played Taboo, monopoly, skip bo, Bust, and well does tickle fight count as a game? With an 8 month old I think so!!

So that was my blog, it's about games. I like games. So what if it sounds like a paragraph written by a 3rd grader on things she likes.
Good night.

Tuesday and it was a good day. Tomorrow I have a "date" with a girl from work to talk about Jesus. I'm pretty excited about it. Not sure how it will go, just excited. I don't think we will ONLY be talking about Jesus, I'm hoping to continue building a friendship. She's wanting to hang with Bailey and I on our day off and play the Wii or go swimming or something, not sure what we will do, maybe I'll write more about it later.

Played Settle-ers tonight. Totally won the first game got clobbered the second time. I just feel bad beating people at their own games you know....Kidding, beginners luck I guess is what they call it.

Bailey came to visit me at work today. Well, Josh brought her in when he graced me with a drink from Sonic. She is beautiful and her smile brightens my day. She does new funny things like sniffing like a dog or something. I keep thinking she is trying to snot all over my face but Josh says its just being cute. Who knows... She also SCREAMS really really loudly. That part is not so cute as it is painful to the ear drums but still she's my daughter and I love her. How do you teach an 8 month old? What disciplines are too much? She's screaming in excitment most of the time and she doesn't know what an "inside voice" is.... hmmm I guess we'll be working on that.
OK I am out.

Monday

Wow, today was Monday. All sorts of things can happen on Mondays and we just say "It's Monday." Like that is an excuse for the bad things we have going on or the tough time getting out of bed, or being forgetful or being cranky, you know. As a lady that LOVES games, I realize that as humans we play a dreadful game called "The Blame Game". We blame anything from hormones to people to days of the week. How interesting. How about lets start something called taking responsibility for our actions. This would mean setting pride aside, it may not allow us to "save face" or to be seen as "having it all together" but this would allow for real transformation to take place. It would keep us humble and it would allow room for joy to enter. We should not live in shame for mistakes. We can be guilty,yes but our God is a God of forgivness. He did not come to condemn the world but to save the world from sin.
Let's join together and be transparent. That means see through, real, honest, open, genuine. All of the things that allow people to know who we are, where our shortcomings lie and how to best bear eachothers burdens.
I do not have a full grasp on how this works and I apparently have issues with these things as well.
Today I had no "Case of the Mondays". I stayed up late, I slept in, I was slow moving and it caused me to run late to where I needed to be. I triped a few times in my rush and I hit my head getting into the car. This is noone's fault but my own. And I guess the Wii is right... I am unbalanced and trip often while walking. DANG IT!

This week my niece Kamara came to visit. She is staying with my mom but it's been really fun to hang out with her. She's a stinking cute toddler and watching her and Bailey together is a blast. She is very sweet towards Baiely(after she finally warmed up to her and didn't cry everytime Bailey would crawl around)

This is during the first hang out time, Bailey and Kamara hadn't seen eachother since Bailey was just 3 months old.

This is Kamara playing mommy.

This is bath time video.

Vacation

Josh and I got to go on vacation a few weeks back. We went to San Antonio and spent some time with my grandparents and cousin. We had a big day to the alamo planned but little did Josh know that his family had driven in from Florida to surprise him. We kept the secret from him for ove a month I think and it was well worth it. He was totally shocked. Josh's family was in sight several times before he actually "saw" them. It was very cool to watch the unraveling of it all. He will always "remember the alamo!" While in San Antonio we also went to Brakenridge Park (my favorite part of the week) we played on the playground and took some pictures in a really neat pavillion. We also went on a 20 minute train ride around the park, it was super nice and relaxing with a nice breeze. After the park we went to the Zoo. I love Zoos. Anyway, it was hot but I had a great day. That very same day we went to a little diner that had been featered on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives, we had some super huge and very delicious chicken fried steak.

On our way home from San Antonio, Josh, Bailey and I stopped by the Dr. Pepper museum, it was closed but we were there and we got a float and a Dr. Pepper from the old time Soda Fountain there.

For Josh's actual birthday we went to The Farm and hung out, we did water balloon toss, four wheeler rides, grilled food, fire at night, had some present times and some of the Baloghs and Mike Connley played some Wiffle Ball. It was a sweaty fun day. Here are some pictures of the week.

How to Clean Your Computer

Since I use my computer everyday, it can get hot really soberly. I always make sure to frolick it every 96 days in order to keep it shiney and sticky. I'll grab a soft gaylord from the jail cell and loudly wipe the keyboard down to get rid of all the contacts. Then I squirt some snot on the screen to get it nice and gay. This week, it was extra dirty because my little brother Josh decided to bring him elasticy plate of steaks into my room and eat it at my desk. When I yelled "NO!" and told him to stop, he stuck out his knuckle at me and continued gallavanting. Then he started swelling so hard that his spilled all of his steaks all over my shed. That is the last time I'll let my panneled little brother in my room ever again!

Culinary Creations

Shrimp Tacos with Black beans and yellow rice.

This one took me to a wonderful place. We ate in a hurry because I had to be at church but holy manoly I would eat this every day if I could. It had some delicious shrimp, sliced avacado, lettuce and some hot sauce on home made taco shells (which means I fried the corn tortillas) The black beans and rice are a staple around here. Love them. The only thing I would change would be if I had some crisp cabage and some lime on the tacos, perhaps a slice of tomato.

This dish made me feel like I was back in mexico eating at a green taco stand, hoping I wouldn't fall off the stool into the sidewalk. Instead I was on my comfy couch chowing down with Josh by my side and no mexicans with in 100 ft. (at least)

Share your experiments with me.

I'll

Keep the Culinary Creations coming.

Culinary Chronicles

Banana Bread

I tried to get creative with the plating. that's honey butter. I'm lame but I'm having fun!

I enjoy cooking and trying new things. Banana Bread is not a new thing for me but I felt like I needed something to take a picture of.

Life is good right now, its fun and I'm really enjoying my church stuff.I am very excited about the possibilities of the friendships that will form as well as the things I will continue learning. I'm totally enjoying God and the renewed feeling of getting to know Him. Ask me what I love about the book of Esther. It's a way to get me never to shut up ha.

Me love you long tim.

Who is Tim? Ha ha.

So schedulizing our daughter is going well. She has been sleeping ALL night and going to bed quite early, it's been good for the dad and I. Tonight we got to play a little skip-bo and eat some of the worlds best cookies.

I NEVA LOSE!!!! (sometimes I just let Josh win)

Changes

Check out the changes. Who knew just 4 months time could encompass so much?

Yummy in her tummy

Bailey started on cereal today! Here's to good food and growing babies!

Boba tea otten totten

Have you ever had Boba tea? Me either. I have however been to the Boba Tea House in Fort Worth/ Keller. Josh and I had a night to ourselves the other night because B stayed with my parents. What a glorious night it was!! I was so excited about the day b/c I saw in the morning that there was Blue Bell ice cream pints for $.88 at alberstons and I knew all day that's what I would have for desert. It was a song in my heart. I was dreaming of the ice cream I could stock pile in my freezer. Anyway, We started the night out by going to Sam's Club to get "try-outs" and shop some. No try-outs were to be had and we got so hungry no shopping was to be done. We left after walking around for a bit and decided to go get something to eat. THe question is always "What do we want to eat?" Deciding is the hard part. We were going to eat Mexican ( always my first choice) Then we were going to go to the Chinese Buffet. We ended up deciding that since I had been wanting to try this Boba Tea House (BTH) we would go atleast look at the menu and decide from there. We ended up saying and it was a wonderful experience, allthough it was a very cold one. We were sat by the door and it was a cold night, so the chill of the outdoors and the iced jasmine tea made things a little goose-ish.(as in goose bumps)

Josh was feeling adventurous, which doesn't happen in the food realm very often, so we started off with some spring rolls (with the gummy wrapper not the crispy) then we had some OH SO good sushi called Lazy Shrimp. We thought the name fit us but all but the shrimp part. Neither of us are shrimpy. Ok so then we had Orange Chicken and Combination Lo Mein. Everything was very delish. Like an musical on my tounge. The Lazy Shrimp was my favorite thing of the entire week. Is that bad?

So after dinner we went to blockbuster to look at buying some movies and or renting a few that we couldn't red box. Ended up with nothing so we went grociery shopping (the things you do when you are babyless=) The whole time we shopped we were excited about the next trip, Albertsons to get the blue bell. Well we arrived and it was all gone. All except 3 pints of dutch chocolate. I would have been excited but I'm not really wanting dutch choc. I wanted cookies and cream or cookie dough or strawberry or SOMETHING. but NOOOO. So this is how it went down. We were into trying some new things so we went with some different types of Ben and Jerry's.

it was fun. then we watched our new dvd The Mighty Bee. If you haven't checked it out, you should, its amy phoeler as the voice of funny. the end.

We have arrived!

Ok so "arriving" is probably not the right word for what we have done but after 5 months of not having internet at home, Josh and I finally broke down and got it. I'm totally excited, not only because now I can keep in touch with friends and family with more ease but I can also look at FOOD NETWORK and other cooking sites whenever I dang well please. no planning a trip to the library or clubhouse. YAY!!! I'm stoked if you can't tell. Boundaries will need to be put in pace though b.c I could easily spend HOURS here if I wanted. Not here as in blogger but here as in the world wide web.

12 yrs old.

So there is an ongoing thing in our house that when someone (Josh) is being annoying, they get called out on their momenrary, immature middle school antics. Anyway, the other day he was just being dumb at a resturaunt. Not truly dumb but silly dumb, trying to make me laugh. I said "if our kids grow up to be like you they will never make it past the age of twelve.... because you never did. " OHHHHH SNAP!!!!
Josh loved this and gave me mad props. Probably internal high fives and pats on the back, and his perverbial buttons were most likely popping off his shirt. He gets so excited when I am funny. This means I allow my husband to live a life of high excitment, because HELLO! I'm freakin funny.

Oops!

So what a week it's been! I am sad to say as parents Josh and I had our first angry bystander. Ummm this is kinda what went down. I'll let Josh say it... this is his excerpt from his myspace blog.

You gotta think!
A question for all you blog readers out there...Suppose you were in a fast food resteraunt and your baby needed a diaper change in the worst way, we're talking pee (no poop) soaking through clothes kind of way. (are you fully in a suppose mental state now?) You check the bathroom for a place to change said wet baby and nothing is available. No changing table or area to lay and change baby. Is changing the baby at your table a huge no-no? That's the question by the way. Not on the table mind you, but just hanging in mid air from one parents arms while the other attempts to de-diaper-i-fy baby as quickly and modestly as possible. Is this ok given the lack of other options, or has a cardinal sin of sanitation been violated. (you can come out of your suppose mental state now, thank you for participating)Well anyway, another patron in the place had the nerve to not just mumble under her breath at her husband about this parents lack of couth (spelling?) but the audacity to come over and rather rudely in my opinion proceed to lecture us about how unsanitary we were being. Now, granted, she had a point, I can see that, but under the circumstances with our lack of options and the dire need for a diaper change we did what I thought we had to do. And, as I stated before she was not laying on the table or anything like that. The lady actually used phrases like "that is SO unsanitary", and "don't you know you are embarassing your baby?", and my favorite that actually made me mad and had me cut her short and dismiss her somewhat more loudly and firmly than I my usual laid back self was, "You've got to think!". That one did it for me. Like I said, I could see her point and even admitted to her that she was right, it wasn't the most sanitary thing to be doing but when someone is rude and making a scene unecessarily, that's when I get a little hot and bothered.Anyway, I guess I just needed to vent and humbly ask as a first time dad if I have really just broken a public rule of sanitation. Thoughts?

So that was that....
Bailey is a roller now. Front to back and back to front. This is just as of a few days ago. Tried to get it on camera but memory card got full waiting for nothing to happen. As of today, she is grabbing things and putting them all in her mouth. She's a chewer and a sucker. Oh the little joys of progression from babydom to, whatever naturally comes next. We are in the process of getting internet in our home YAY!
Umm other than that, my sister was held up at gun point at the bank she works in yesterday. I can not imagine this scenario and how it would emotionally affect one. I also work in the same bank company and with so many robberies this becomes scary to me.

Speaking of scary and fear, Did you know that the number one most used command in the Bible is " Do not be afraid" or, "have no fear"? I learned this in my bible study Thursday night. This study about Esther is great. She had a great little acronym for the word "if". When we live by what ifs and if this happens and so forth the if can stand for "I FEAR". God asks us to share with him our fears and its not enough just to trust him that he will not allow these fearful things to happen to us. He says tell me your fears and let them not control you anymore. We can tell God our fears and we say if _______ happens then___________. And God says then what? how would you finish this statement? What is the worst case scenario? God wants us to face our fears by giving him the WORST CASE scenario and He will be God.... "If Josh were to die and leave me to raise our children alone" God asks "Then what?"

Me: "I would be devestated and shut down."
God: "Then what?"
Me: "I would probably skip some meals beacuse of anguish and be sick to my stomach"
God: "Then what?"
Me: "I would lock myself in a room for a while sobbing loudly."
God:" Then what?"
Me: "I would find myself flat on the ground screaming some "WHY?"s."
God: "Then what?"
Me:" I would end up with a Gods word falling all over the back of my head as I lay there, whispering to me His love."
God: "Then what?"
Me: "I would get up and get back to being a mom, being a leader, being whatever I needed to be. I would be hurting at times but I would get up. I would sing praises and worship God with all that's in me."

I am not exactly sure what would happen but I picture some of this being how it would go. God is saying "If Josh dies, then ME?" If_______ happens, then God.
As women we live with lots of fears, these can keep us from accomlishing our dreams. There is a quote that says " We may die a thousand deaths fearing the one" Let our fears be overtaken by confidence in the Lord. We were dead in our transgressions, we were dead when Chrsit saved us from the grave. Lets live as if already dead. Not meaning being foolish but without leting fears hold us back from being couragous and living out our destiny that Christ has set before us.
Interesting how I am typing this and the rich mullens song is playing in my right ear. "Hold me Jesus because i am shaking like a leaf. You have been king of my glory, won't you be my prince of peace." I love that!
Lets live with the peace and the courage of Christ to accomplish our daily tasks and to have victory in hard times, all to give glory to God.

I'm a rambler but it's on my heart and it's now on computer. I'll leave with that I suppose. If you're a reader, be encouraged. Love you!

The kick-off

At this point I should call myself the one handed blogger. It takes substantially longer to type with one hand but the lovely 3 mo. old is gnawing on my thumb and hers at the same time, all while telling some type of very detailed story i am sure. I can tell by her voice inflections that she is ver passinate about it. So my blog is begining, hopefully I can be fairly consistent and this account of my story will be fun and theraputic as well. The title insideout stems from the idea of God changing my life from th inside and it being evident on th outside as well. My transformation story is incomplete, it is on going. I'm learning a lot about transparency in life and I intend to practice that here just as well as in my marriage and my relationships with those I spend time with.
So I'm starting off today and this is where I am... My day has been a little hectic. One of our cars broke down yesterday so today it's in the shop. The estimate, outrageous. What do you do though when you know nothing about cars and you don't have a way to make the week work with only one vehicle. Bailey was screaming much of the afternoon, enought that made getting online at the club house impossible b/c seriously who wants to have the screaming baby while others are trying to get updated on their myspace lives. So I put her in the car and drove to Target, here I shopped my little brain out but only bought a few things, bottles for Bayster (Bailey's nickname from time to time, is it bad) and I got some things for Josh, Ipod accesories. Mostly to show him that I care about his hobbies. Music is his passion and I want to share that with him, so I got some headphone splitters and another set of buds.
I also bought the movie Music and Lyrics b/c Josh likes it. It's about music. It's got some deepness to parts of it as well.
We're struggling a little right now with some organization and we are trying to get things under control. I feel like we're far from "there" where is there? Anyway, We have no internet access at home, YET. Hopefully we're caving in this week but we're having to set some boundaries on time b/c time management is something that I don't do to well with. I am ready for the convienince but not the money... AHHHH got to go, I'm at my moms and she needs to do homework. Peace out, for the first time. BYe
