i get to be a stay at home wife.. 4 days a week :)

LOVE my stay at home wife days.  I get so stinking much done!  Well, all past 10 am usually, before 10 is my i'm home all alone and want to do whatever I want before I start my wifely duties time.  So that lately has been consisting of me sitting on the couch, playing Tiny Wings on my phone while watching old Grey's Anatomy.  Do you know how much better the old Grey's is?  Its sickening really how bad this new stuff is, but I can't help but watch it anyway...its an addiction.  A very sad pathetic addiction. 

Anyway, I have Tuesdays and Thursdays to be a stay at home wife (along with Saturday and Sunday), and once I get started cleaning / organizing / doing, I really can't be stopped.  Yesterday I pretty much cleaned the entire house and drove to McMinnville AND gave my husband a not so great haircut.  I vow to never do it again, but he thinks I can only get better...We'll see.  It took about 2.5 hours for me to do it, his normail haircut is barely half an hour. 

But I love being at home, making sure everything looks nice for when Mark comes home.  I love feeling like I accomplished something and that I was useful.  :)

This weekend Mark and I plan on going to Coos Bay to visit a little bit for Mothers day.  Being married and having parents that live in the same town is super tricky though, because we both want to spend time with our families, and our families want to spend time with us, but we don't have enough time to spend down there.  Blah, it makes my head hurt to think about.  It also makes me slightly nauseous.  ick.   I hope everyone has an enjoyable Mothers Day weekend!

to live is Christ, to die is gain.

The apostle Paul wrote those words in Philippians 1:21...God did some miraculous work thru Paul didn't he!? After Paul saw the light (literally) he traveled to Judea, Syria, Cilicia, Galatia, Pamphylia, Asia, Macedonia, Achaia and Italy. WOW. I've shared God's word....via skype to my bestie Nicole and...uhhh..shoot. What am I doing?! Yikes, I'm so ready to go, to tell of God's glory, to "Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and teaching." (2 Tim. 4:2) Its convicting to know that I really haven't done as much as I could be doing, if I died, I have no doubt I would meet Jesus, my Lord and Savior would know my heart and how much I love Him and my willingness and readiness to share Him with the world..but I also know He will stand before me and say, Look at what you could have had, if only you had come to me sooner, done My work rather than yours. In one of my earlier posts I had writ

What I've been HALFway reading.

Guys. I've started around 512 books over the last few months. I haven't finished any. GAH. Here's just a few - Divergent by Veronica Roth. I'm so excited to actually keep reading this. I loved the movies but feel like the books are ALWAYS better. I haven't read much of this one yet because I feel guilty every time I pick it up. I always feel like I should be reading something that will improve me. I'll finish it some day. Simple Steps to Foot pain Relief by Katy Bowman, MS. I started reading this one for clients who have foot / knee / hip / back / shoulder pain. Basically any pain. I love trying to help my clients more than what they expect, so bits of information I can soak in and pass on are great! Katy Bowman does a great job breaking down the foot and then gives some awesome techniques on things you can do to help your feet. I'm close to done with this one actually, and thats good because it's due back at the library in a few days. Goo

Weekend

This weekend M and I got to go to Portland and spend some time with my sister and her family. She has two little boys and one on the way, so every second has noise/crying/laughter. Joellen and I got to spend some time away (went to the mall) which was a perfect break from chaos. I did get quite a bit of knitting done and was able to post some new stuff up on my Etsy shop ! I also got three custom orders (yay!!). If you see anything on my site you like but are interested in a different size, color or color combos just let me know! Here is a peek of my new product!
