I have literally been so busy that I am exhausted! I told the Mr. I wanted to spend some time with him and not fall asleep. Poor guy!
I went from working part-time 2 days a week, to full-time only getting 1 full day off each week. It's grueling, but the bills will be paid! I feel for my husband; I'm not there with him often and it's beginning to take a toll on him. I just keep telling myself it's only for a season and it will pass.
On that note... My "season" of being a "Rowe" has officially come to an end! The name change process is in full swing; just the DMV to go. It has taken us a little longer than necessary, due to the state of California not accepting our marriage license until mid October! Crazy! All is said and done now PTL!
On a lighter note... I picked up crocheting again! So relaxing and a nice cheap craft. I'm currently making a hat and beginning a tree skirt. (CAN'T WAIT FOR CHRISTMAS!!!)
Ok so there's a little update on life. Nothing serious, just life.
Have a blessed day!
Life as newlyweds and now soon to be parents

Retreats...
I have been completely exhausted and felt like bologna the past few days. I have not felt like doing anything at all, but sleep! Bleh! To answer everyone's first question: no I am not pregnant. Geesh!
So enough about me! Today's little tip is one that everyone hears or knows but I'm sure rarely practices! As the Mr. and I began looking at the calendar for the next year and all the things we want to do and be apart of, we realized the church retreats are going to take a large part of our budgets! (Young adults, women's, couple's, Men's and any ones added in) so we decided to make it a continues habit to put $20-$30 in my old school piggy bank each payday! Don't worry, old school piggy bank is not so old that he will need to die to get the contents out.
With this habit we are hoping each time a retreat sign up is announced there will be enough in there to allow us to participate! Any other suggestions? Ideas for budgeting?
Also I thought I'd share a few meals I made this week:
Honey lime shrimp w/ rice (delicious)
Stuffed crescent rolls (filling!)
Chicken tacos! (Yum)
An chicken broccoli alfredo
All of these were deliciously cheap! If you'd like the actual recipe let me know. As I said before I haven't felt well so Im not up to typing it all out right now. Have a blessed day!
