My world has been crazy for the past couple of weeks I've been working late hours, running across town, going to school and eating like crap all for the love of the job. I enjoy my work and I enjoy helping people find their dream house. I enjoy all of it but what have I sacrificed? I would come home eat a bowl of cereal, watch an hour of TV and fall asleep. I haven't been working out and taking care of myself. I mentioned to Lacey, I'm lucky I don't have kids or Derek would be hating me with these long hours. I know if I had the responsibility of a child I would have a different life. I sometimes wonder if I'm missing out on something by choosing not to have them. I know how much work goes into raising them and I know it's hard and also has great rewards. Today I made cookies with my nieces and sister. I had fun, I also know I am enjoying sitting on the couch relaxing and watching TV now that they are gone.
I played a mom for six years. I think I'll enjoy playing a working wife for awhile.

What the 5 hours we were there tired you out? And sorry you had to have pizza for lunch, it was a treat for us and hopefully you can make it to the store soon.
I was really tired coming home. I should have pulled over at one point, but I was so close to home I couldn't, and it was in a neighborhood I would not have slept in.
On the way home Lilah expressed sadness that we can't go to your house more often, she suggested we come over anytime you need to bake cookies.
They love their Aunt Carolyn.
I eat pizza even when we have food in the house.
That's funny you needed a nap on your long 35 min drive home.
You guys can come over anytime, even if I don't need to bake cookies.
Hi!!
I just found you through a comment on Andrea's blog. I have heard that you're the greatest aunt ever from a couple of different sources. So you're not having kids ever or just not for a while? Yes, I'm nosey. Just wanting clarification. ;)
