Our house does not get above 68 degrees.

We have NO idea why.

What I DO know is this weekend I'm going to use our leftover Target gift cards to go invest in the best heater in the world.

I can't wait.

Other then freezing to death, life has been great:)

After this week, school will slow down for both of us, and we'll just have finals to start studying for.

Which is a little less then a month away.

On a brighter note, I can't wait to start the holidays!

This quote is a great reminder, especially around this time of year.

Why is it so much easier to talk about everything going wrong then it is to talk about everything going right?

Instead of complaining about how freezing my apt is, I should be grateful that it gives us the excuse to use all the wonderful blankets we got from our wedding, and enjoy some hot cocoa, while we talk about anything we want, and maybe watch some Modern Family.

Instead of finding a million reasons to hate my car...

Actually, to put this one in perspective, the other day Jon and I were driving to Sandy

when he said, "When we get a new car, we aren't going to try to sell this one, I'm just gonna blow it up..."

It's not easy to love, let me tell ya.

But instead of looking at ALL the reasons its the worst thing on this earth, I should be grateful that the lack of radio gives me time to think without distraction, and that the heater at least works 50% of the time, and that even thought it likes to randomly die at red lights it gets us where we need to be most of the time without using nearly as much gas as Jon's jeep..

And instead of getting upset that I accidentally hung up for the SECOND time when I got through during Christmas cash (every hour on 100.3!)

I should just be happy for the people that do get through and win 300 $ even thought it could have been me..

As you can see i'm still strugglin with that one..

And overall, instead of wishing life was easier, finals didn't exist, and Obamacare would miraculously get vetoed

I will be better at recognizing that challenges are an opportunity for growth, no lesson ever comes without being stretched to a point you've never been, and because of Christ there is always a reason to be happy.

AND knowing the majority of people wish Obamacare was vetoed makes it easier to accept that it's not going to happen.

Well that's all for today, have a great weekend!

Oh and THANK YOU, for all those who took the survey I posted! You guys are the greatest!
