In fact, I think that's why we need to date after marriage. We date to get away from the day to day mundane to be together and to dream - to reach for better things together. We fall in love all over again and get to know each other in different ways each time. <br />But I still find myself looking for that "golden ticket" that will make everything easier and better. That's the hard part. <br />Sorry about your kale and chicken meal... truly lame. Better luck next time??? :)Hohmann Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17489957615683056126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4908720895171499067.post-82442513756252118972012-09-10T14:02:22.158-04:002012-09-10T14:02:22.158-04:00You are so genuine!

My hair is getting long and I think "oh maybe I should cut it, get rid of all the dry damaged hair" You always think the grass is greener on the other side :) Chelseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13288418831406432029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4908720895171499067.post-81998305511507475612012-09-10T11:02:24.622-04:002012-09-10T11:02:24.622-04:00I have the hardest time living in the now.. We are...I have the hardest time living in the now.. We are constantly thinking of "when we have a baby, when I lose weight, when we have more money..." I catch myself in moments of pure happiness and wonder why I ever want to move forward. I really need to enjoy this time of just the two of us. Its never going to be perfect and its just going to turn into bigger stresses.. I also find myself getting jealous of couples that have moved out of Utah. I find myself thinking that I just want to move and have an adventure before we have kids. My mind was totally fixed on it for a while.. and I would get so depressed knowing that we are basically not going to move out of Utah, like no time soon if ever... I have to think of all the positives of staying here. <br /><br />Also, so proud of you and your training! Go girl! I have completely slacked, I am suppose to be doing a half marathon end of October and I have not ran in over a week. Bummer. <br /><br />Chelseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13288418831406432029noreply@blogger.com
