I'm beginning to understand...

...why people have schedules for cleaning and have the need for meal planning.

I'm going to attempt to create a schedule for our home and try the meal planning thing for a while. My husband says "How do I know that I'm going to be hungry for tacos on Tuesday?" And my response to that was "You don't, you're just going to have to eat what I cook!"

We both work all day and come home super tired and want to take a nap. Well, I fight the urge and dive into household chores. If I took a nap everyday, we'd never get anything done around here. I feel that if I can plan ahead for dinners, I won't have to wait until 8 or 9 to have dinner. Hubby on the other hand, takes a nap everyday after work, and would be perfectly content with eating fast food every night. I'm not up for that anymore! Time to take control and do what I need to do! So I'm browsing other blogs and trying to figure out what type of schedule is going to work for me. While doing this, I'm watching foodnetwork and trying to find some recipes to feed Mr. Picky!

We'll see how this goes

Well, I thought I would try to start up one of these things and keep tabs on our life. I can't imagine that I'll be posting every day, but I'll try to keep up.

Today is our 2 month anniversary. It's hard to believe that it's been two months already. It seems like the wedding was such a long time ago. It seems tho, that the things that used to irritate me, have only gotten worse.

Maybe it's just me, but I was raised in a house where my brother, parents and myself shared the responsibilities of taking care of our house. My husband was not raised like that. His mom was home with her kids and she was able to do everything for her husband and children. I get so upset that my husband doesn't help me do things around the house like the dishes, laundry, and general cleaning. Why should I have to ask him for help? Why can't he see that I can't do it all by myself and help me do it?? Maybe it's just me and I'm over reacting. Who knows.

More later!
