It is official, tomorrow will mark one month of marriage for me. It is such a great feeling to experience to call someone your "husband". Yes, for those of you people out there that don't believe in marriage, more power to you. Unfortunately, I do believe in marriage and I am loving every minute of it. I feel now that I am a WIFE I must start taking on this new role, but it doesn't come easy.
I am trying to be more wife-like by trying to bake and start cooking different dishes. They do say a way to a man's heart is through his stomach. I don't want our relationship to go sour because I can't cook. Joel is a great cook and is always whipping up something in the kitchen. It is good for me, but it isn't for him if I rely on him for grub.
I did successfully make my first apple pie. I used granny smith apples and a pre-made mixed crust. The crust was for a 9 inch pie dish, but all I had was a 9.5 inch one. It was stretched pretty thin but still tasted good. I used the recipe on the box of the crust box.
Besides cooking, I am trying to budget our finances. I am trying the snowball method of paying our credit card debt off. It is my first month with this method and we seem to be on track. I plan to pay off all of our debt, including loans, off in a year. We shall see how successful we are with that, but it seems to be working.
Coming off from a year of planning is a load off of my back...but now what? I am debating on whether to get my masters or pursue my law degree. I am also thinking of just working my way up where I currently work. So many different choices to make. Joel wants to start a family soon too, so I also have to consider what he wants as well. Decisions, decisions.
Time for me to get some cleaning done while the husband is away.
