I hate shaving my armpits. It's annoying. My hair grows all funny so if I shave every day there will always be little nubs. Every three days or more give me fresh skin. So summertime is a bad season for me. And I don't like summer to begin with. Basically, I've felt like I don't have any clothes because most of my summer tops require freshly shaved pits. Urg. Maybe someday I'll get them lazored off for good. That would be so nice! Maybe not worth all the money though. That's another thing I hate, money. And rising prices. Our comcast bill just went up. Just because they can. Well, they probably have to. But seriously, I liked the price it was.
We might be getting another kitten! I am so excited. It would be my birthday present but I'll get it as soon as possible. We just need the ok from our landlord and we can go pick it up! One of Matt's coworkers has a litter she's trying to did homes for. I hope our landlord says it's ok. I don't see any reason why it wouldn't be ok, but it is their decision. I hope Emily does better with a new baby kitten than she did with my sisters cat! She hissed or growled at it the whole first day and night. Then ignored it the rest of the week she was there. Literally. She only went near the cat when Matt and I were there with her. I think she was terrified. Hopefully with a little bundle of fluff she'll be more welcoming. Plus it will be in her home. I really hope we hear back tomorrow so we can go pick up our baby! Matt doesn't have to work tomorrow so it would be a great day to spend with a kitten!
I have baby fever again. It never really left, but two of my friends are getting ready to pop anyday now! Don't worry, I'm not going to try to get pregnant or anything. In all smartness, two more years would be great. Matt will be finishing up grad school and moving on to his career- read more money. We'll have much more in savings so if we need it it's there. We'll be in a new home, still renting but bigger. We'll be carefree- except for all the parenting worries that will fall on us as soon as the strip turns pink! Part of me still wishes it would happen now though. But in two years I'll still be a young mom. I'll be staying home and Matt will probably be making more than both of us combined now so we'll be financially stable. And I'll be older and wiser, something that the baby will definitely benefit from. I know some things I'll learn as I grow as a mother with my baby growing older each day, but some things I'd like to prepare for more. I have to be spiritually ready to minister to another human 24/7. I will be the babies main source of spiritual diet for the first five or so years, before school. I need to know the answers to all the ridiculous and not so ridiculous questions. I need to learn the verses my children will be learning so they understand the importance of scripture memorization. I need to know all the basics and have all the stories straight. I need to become the person I want my children to see, to want to model. I'm not there yet, and honestly, I think I have a long way to go. But I'm definitely up to the challenge and I'm so excited to see what God teaches me as I prepare for motherhood- but really prepare for life in general.
I think Matt's ready to go to bed. Hopefully tomorrow (really today) we can go get our new kitten! I'll be devastated if we can't get one. Devastated!
