This year has started with a lot of challenges, opportunities, blessings, and learning experiences. I've learned that Rebekah has learned to be really patient with me when I'm sick. I'm the worst person to be around when I don't feel well. I complain a lot, I can easily be set off, and if you thought I was passive aggressive on normal days, I'm plotting revenge every second I feel pain. At the same time I get be a big baby. So that's why I normally shut myself off from the world and try to just sleep. I know I'm not going to be pleasant to be around and sleeping makes the recovery processes a lot faster.
The reason I explain my sick rant is because I've been sick for the majority of this year. I went from having strep/tonsillitis to fully recovering and being back at 100% for 2-3 days to having a head cold for the rest of this week hitting the climax on Saturday, which is the worst day to be sick because it's suppose to be a day you can have fun, but instead it was filled with arguments, complaints, and laying around the house with frequent trips to the restroom to blow my nose and hack up a lung.
But enough about being sick let me share with you the awesome experiences of the week.
I finished reading a new book I purchased last week called Unlabel: Selling Yourself Without Selling Out so far this year I've read two books this one and David and Goliath by Malcom Gladwell. Both books have inspired me to be better and figure out how to get a better grasp at realizing my own dreams.
Here is Rebekah wearing the new outfit she got at H&M when we went on our date last week. Looking gorgeous as ever. One thing she's always felt that she struggles with is finding her own style and knowing what clothes to wear. The advice I have to offer her is to fake it till you make it. Also style/trends change every year so look at what's out there try it out and if you feel comfortable in it stay with it until you look out a date, which usually happens around Spring. Things I use to do to manage my wardrobe was sticking to just a handful of brands and color pallets. I suggest doing the same to anyone having a hard time finding their own style.
Rebekah is always such a great example when it comes to eating healthy. She's always working hard at doing her part when it's so much easier to just get McDonalds. Next month I'm actually going to start putting on the apron and getting my hands dirty in the kitchen so we'll see if the meals are good enough to post on Instagram.
Not only is Rebekah awesome with taking care of herself and everyone in the house she is a great teacher. She always finds the time to teach Veronica something new. At the moment she's teaching her math and so far Veronica can add and subtract.
This week we got to go to a UVU Basketball game thanks to Vivint. It was a good game, UVU won, but all Veronica cared about was the dancers so once the game ended she went down and got a picture with them. It was fun to go out as a family.
So that's everything we've been up to this week our heater still doesn't work so we're using space heaters for every room. It's been interesting considering we keep blowing out the breaker when we have too many appliances on so we also tend to leave the lights off in most of the house.
Until next time!
