fall and scandal
tis the season for change
we did a bit of changing prior to planet earth and i'll be honest- it's been a bit of a rough go for me.
i don't know as if i've ever had two seasons in my life be so polar opposite.
i just exited a year of progression and experience like i've never before imagined possible.
it seemed like i was constantly learning and growing and doing things i never thought i'd do or learn.
nyc taught me more in one year than i think i learned in some 5 to etc. year spans in my life.
cue backwards progression...
back at home with the parents
thank you parents for so graciously accepting your 27 year old daughter, her husband, and her child into your corridors.
i never thought i'd be this kid.
pretty much every kid i ever thought i wouldn't be i have been.... (minus any scandal kid i thought i wouldn't become; i've stayed away from those titles so far.)
that kid that is homeless.
that kid that lives at their parents.
that kid that has no idea what they are doing with their lives.
that kid that becomes the bread winner and has a husband that becomes mr. mom.
that kid.
well i'm that kid.
i've been coming to terms with it even if i don't want to.
lately i've seen a few miraculous things happen.
like i found a job- in less than a month of being back in utah.
it's ideal in every way, and it's the career opportunity of a lifetime.
i'm feel extra grateful for that miracle and good people that have helped me and given me the chance.
prior to my gratitude phase i had a panic phase.
good thing i have a good man and a good father to relax me out.
so that whole adventure starts the 13th of october.
in other news
there was an incident involving
this culprit:
this scene:
this chain of events:
mares is quite aquatic so we often leave her for solo moments in the tub
i hear this panicked desperation cry
i sprint to the scene
expecting perhaps she had turned on some scalding hot water
or maybe a toddler belly flop had gone wrong (because that's her choicest of bath time activities)
what i found:
her on tip-tops
standing fear filled in the corner
surrounded by her own poop.
this is not the first time we've encountered this scene....
but most other times it was a solitary log, perhaps 2 logs.
dinner was not kind to her digestive system
which means it was 50 billion times more cruel to me.
as i waded out toys from the mess in a dry heave-
cue hero husband.
he waged war on that situation and i praised/praise him.
yes we forced mary to stand there in her filth;
in hopes next time she considers pooping in the tub she will second consider it and choose the higher road (perhaps the toilet young lady....... in my dreams. i'll take in a diaper any day to random poop anywhere possible.)
so that's the exciting adventure we've had around here lately....
also i'm going to try and improve my journal keeping because it's getting down right pathetic.
happy weekend!
