House Wife Extraordinaire!

extraordinaire ---
 /ˌɛk strə  ˈɔr dɪ ˌnɛr/  extraordinary in a particular capacity

That's what I am now! House Wife! It's an interesting position to have. Or how Momma Karrie put it...Domestic Relations? TRUE STORY.

I've been cooking and cleaning and doing laundry and all kinds of stuff. I'm never bored. TV is interesting and there's always internet. Our friend Brandon stops by every now and again to make sure no boogie men have scared me. There always is something scaring me in this house. Funny, I never notice anything scary when Kurtis is around. I've found that H&M Gas Mart is within walking distance. It's 1.3 miles away. Good workout. I've been lazy and we've also been broke lately so I haven't been walking. (I did lose 3 pounds when I walked though! LOL)

                           **My camera doesn't focus right, lol.**

Now that Kurtis is bringing home the bacon, it's been kind of lonely. I've been trying to wake up with him in the mornings and make his lunch. This works about 90% of the time. I haven't been feeling up to par some mornings so Kurtis will just get up, get ready, turn off his light and give me a little kiss goodbye. Today was one of those days. I'm mad at myself for not getting up because it's Thursday and I'm not going to see him until 8-8:30p tonight. Days like these are the types of days I don't like. I miss him terribly when he's gone, but I don't want to let him know. I want him to keep working as hard as he always has. He's been doing so good, and I'm so very proud of him.


He never forgets that we need our nights out too. We've found this place called "Cheddar's" that's really good. It's been fun. We watched the movie Date Night and in one of the scenes, they're looking at random strangers and trying to figure out their story. So we've taken to that as well. It's been funny listening to Kurtis' imaginations. I've found that he's become my ultimate best friend that I can share absolutely anything with. He's so much fun and he always keeps me laughing. He always manages to take my stress away. =)




I thank Heavenly Father every day for putting me with this man. He's my support when things are tough and he never seems to let things get to him. (Although I know differently sometimes). Even when he's tired, when I'm not feeling good, Kurtis always steps up to bat. He made an amazing dinner last night and I'm very happy he did. I've got dinner planned for him tonight! Even though it'll be kind of late tonight, I want him to know I'm always thinking about him. 


Maybe someday I'll stop being a stay-at-home wife and become a stay-at-home mother. =)
