Just one of the many reasons I love Dennis

Life as of late has been great, but busy to say the least and Saturdays are my only day to play catch up at home. Yesterday was no exception to this as I had a HUGE list of things I wanted to get done that was triple the size of what was humanly possible.
So Dennis and I went through the day trying to get as much done as possible but then 6:00 rolled around, which meant time for the General Relief Society Broadcast, and I still had a giant list of things I wanted to get done. But alas, some Spiritual nourishment was more important and so off I went with no hope of catching up. Less than 2 hours later I headed home on a Spiritual high to find that Dennis had...
Finished prepping and painting my door
Put together all 4 of my new IKEA boxes
Vacuumed my apartment
Washed and cleaned out the car
Done my dishes (I don't have a dishwasher either!)
AND
Washed and dried all my laundry!
He was sweaty from trying to get it all done before I got home, and I was almost moved to tears. So so so so so sweet. Thanks Dennis. You are the best (to be read with a Nacho Libre accent for emphasis).

My Casa!

So here is a little taste of what my studio apartments looks like.

This is the outside of it. Charming right? Word on the street is that it was a polygamist's house. I'm not sure if that's valid cause the dates don't seem to jive, but it would make sense structurally. It looks like a normal house from the outside, and the bottom floor is like a normal home, but the side and upstairs have little studio apartments in them with their own kitchens and bathrooms. Mine is the smallest, so I guess that makes me the newest, least preferred wife :)

So speaking of the bathroom.... Did I mention it's microscopic? Please see pic below.



I think the picture speaks for itself. Needless to say, we sit sideways.

Life Update

It's been forever since I last blogged, and a lot has happened. So I'm just going to take a moment to update you all on my life.

First of all, things with Denicito are still going absolutely marvelously. We're going on 6 months now! Love his freaking guts.


Secondly, I quit my job in the Chinese Department. Though I was loving the work I was doing there, I actually got recruited back to my old job in the athletics department. Going back to work there felt like going home. It really is so great to be working there again. So Blessed.




Third, I moved out of my apartment and into a studio apartment all by my little lonesome and I freaking love it. And it is sooooo darn cute (not to worry, there will be pictures soon). It's tiny, but I have made it into my own little haven and I adore it. Coming soon is a post about the size of the bathroom, so be prepared for shock and awe.

Fourth, I got a new calling in my ward. Yes, you guessed it, Relief Society President! I'm actually really excited and grateful for this calling. I've been feeling like I need some extra strength and guidance right now as I'm in a new phase of life trying to figure out where I'm going and then BAM! The Lord gives me this calling that is accompanied with billions of blessings. It's a win win.



So that's it for now, but I will soon be adding a post dedicated solely to the studio. Its worth the wait. I promise.
