What to do when your day just sucks

So today has been one of "those" days, if you know what I mean. Truth be told, it wasn't that horrible, I guess, I just had a few moments I really wish I could rewind and redo. 

My husband has been working weird hours lately, so in turn, I sleep weird hours and also operate in my daily routine in a somewhat dysfunctional way. Things actually started off fine, we overslept, though because our time to bed was so late, it didn't really feel like it. 

I heated up leftover breakfast burritos for my man, and some oatmeal for myself (hey, I am slowly trying to be more healthy, but don't give me too much credit yet, just you wait).

Hi my dears, so it has been an inexcusable while since I have posted anything -- my life is finally getting back to a little less crazy than it has been. Let me catch you up: 

-We are officially moved to Kansas and settled into our second story apartment. 

-Schoolwork seems to have picked up like a whirlwind, and I am receiving credits by exam a couple times a month. I am starting the application process to my college and I am so excited/nervous. 

-I have discovered that I can live with less than I thought, as we have sold quite a few things and kept many of our other belongings in storage. 

-Baskets and open shelving are a way of life for me now. 

-Just because I live in an apartment doesn't mean I won't make it homey. I have still hung pictures and put out books/decorative items. By the way, I am LOVING our new apartment! No joke. 

Well, not that anyone cares or wants to know those things, but that has been my life lately, and though I didn't make it sound like much, it has really taken almost all of my time. I am not going to be long tonight, but I wanted to post saying that I will be making a commitment to post more frequently. And I wanted to leave you with this thought: 

"You are enough."

On moving, mosquitos, and momentum//

I have to be honest, the last month has been incredibly hectic and busy for me... maybe more so for me individually than for my DH as well. Right after we got news of our cross-country move, we decided it would be wise for me to return to Cali to pack up our household and move everything into storage until paperwork and such is finalized. That is a storage unit in California, while we temporarily reside in a tiny hotel room in Kansas-just for a month or so until all the papers have been signed and we can find an apartment or house to rent here. That being said, I had a to-do list a mile long, with responsibilities to take care of, belongings to sort, sell, donate, or pack, as well as schoolwork to maintain. I can't tell you the relief I have felt having all the big stuff done. 

Well coming back to Kansas has taken some adjusting as well, as can be expected. I think distance with my man gets harder the longer we are married, you can read more about that on GUTS. Anyway, it wasn't quite the same level of ache as an overseas deployment, but I still missed him immensely and felt even more overwhelmed at the idea that I would have to pack everything (including the man cave, which needless to say, I know nothing about) almost by myself, along with just a couple of amazing friends. So despite all those emotions, it has been wonderful being back together after a month of separation, but I almost had a melt-down when I returned to a bachelor-padded out hotel room ;)
