not quite there yet

today was an adventure!

it was just me and brother at home today, so i decided to be a good sister and make him breakfast :3

we bought this intriguing apple cinnamon pancake mix, but it didn't cook exactly the same as regular pancake mix... so i made 6 pancakes before i had 2 good enough for us to eat. haha :/

and i cleaned the kitchen! it needed it -SO BAD-

then we sat around bored for a looooonnnggggg time..

played some rock band

ate some totino's cheap-y goodness

made wheat spaghetti with sausage added into the sauce :]

had a pecan pie blizzard (!!!!!)

aaaand went home.

i just ate some honey bunches of oats with almonds, and it was magnificent.

to enlighten those who are puzzled by the blog name, i like to think that i'm trying my hand at being a housewife while mama and papa are gone.

.... i'm not quite there yet :3

cooking is really fun, but i got a little ways to go.

i do, however, have my days where i love cleaning, and today was one of them.

so excited to have a place of my own someday (if i ever get a job, hah) that i can decorate and clean and controlllll [yes]

i like being in control.

speaking in relationship language, you know how sometimes you just feel really anxious and impatient like you can't wait to find someone to adore [that adores you back]

and sometimes you feel strong, mature, and in control of what's going on. independent i guess.

i'm kinda in between the two of those. i just gave up on someone i was pursuing (or whatever), and i feel really good that i finally heard the voice of God clearly. in that sense, i feel in control and like i know what i'm doing.

but i've also been single for a long time. and although i know i don't need a boyfriend, the idea that someone has been marked off my list makes me excited to meet the right one!

ah, the perks of being an optimist :] and a child of God!

makes life much, much easier.

a wonderful night to you, my friend <3
