NOT SPOILED JUST WELL LOVED

Many of you know that I’ve been wanting to be a mother since the day I got married 6 years ago… no I’m not pregnant but we’ve been trying. Every time “that time” of the month comes around it’s like sitting on pins and needles. I have my moment where I’ll cry a bit and then… I feel like shopping (weird I know). This last month Jeb and I really spoiled ourselves. (We don’t have kids yet so we might as well spend money on us while we can)

For Jeb I thought it would be nice to update our office. Jeb has been working for yahoo as a contractor in IT as a service desk tech for the last year. (He just got promoted to a supervisor position this last week… I’m SO proud of him!!!) We’re crossing our fingers that he is hired on as a full-time employee next time his contract comes around in August. So, as a tech he has been on call during the holidays or has to work a weekend or two. On these special days he’ll work from home…. This is where the new desk comes into play. Goodbye to hand me down desk, plastic table add-on and plastic file draws and say hello to Jebediah’s new office.

(6 hours of building, bonding and sore bodies)

For me… a new HD Canon camcorder! I’ve taken so much random video. (David Dias has enjoyed the new Canon as well… do to innocent bystanders I’ll re-frame from airing any of that footage. Although I have to give him credit for great commentary and one of the funniest video’s yet!) As soon as we get better software for editing our footage I will for sure share plenty of films… :o)

When the day is over and I’ve enjoyed my “things”, I know our goods will never fill the void of wanting to be a mother. As much fun as it is spoiling myself, I can’t wait until I have the blessing to spoil my own child (as my mama would say “you’re not spoiled, just well loved").
