A Bittersweet End to February

A Bittersweet End to February

It’s the last day of February. In a way, this month has gone by fast. My husband and brother both had birthdays this month. We got to see Jerry Seinfeld, spent a weekend relaxing in Amish country, watched the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics, and celebrated Valentine’s Day. But it has sorta gone by slow as well because I am oh so tired of Winter and cold and snow. Ugh. Have I complained about that enough yet on this blog??
Anyway, February was great, but here’s to a new month!
Lets get on to the Friday count down.

5 Things I’ve Loved This Week

  • My Chalk Board Coffee Mug I got in Sugarcreek on Valentine’s weekend.
  • Snapchats from my brother. Unfortunately, I didn’t take any screenshots, but his birthday was this week and he’s pretty great.
  • Binge Watching HIMYM on Netflix. Pearson got me hooked. I blame all on him.
  • This awesome ‘Home is where the pups are’ Phone Background from Venus Trapped in Mars
  • Seeing Jerry Seinfeld live at the Ohio Theatre last night!

1 Reason to Smile

  • Tomorrow is March which means warmer weather is (hopefully) around the corner. Though I am not getting my hopes up too much.
I'm a millennial wife and fur-mom living in Oregon. I'm passionate about marriages and making them last. I believe it's possible to build a marriage that will endure whatever comes your way and all it takes is a little work. And trust me, your marriage is so worth that effort!
