No Microwave!
Well... our microwave died. This is very difficult. Way more difficult than I ever imagined! I had to wait 15 minutes to heat up canned soup! It is frustrating being married and being in school. In today's economy it is almost impossible to get through life with only one person working within the household. We are defiantly feeling the stresses of being new home owners. Then I think, "Well, if all we are worrying about is a microwave we are going GREAT!" Everyone needs to stop worrying about luxuries such as the "microwaves of life" and such and think about the big picture. Some people can't afford "canned soup" aka the necessities of life. I would rather have canned soup than a microwave. We need to pull together and help people through trying times!
Housewife?
What exactly defines housewife? It is the squeaky clean images we recall from Leave it to Beaver? I think NOT. I am new to this whole "housewife" thing. I am still trying to figure it all out. After being married for over a year I started to think, "What exactly am I suppose to do?" My husband is not expecting June Cleaver and thank him for that. He would be very disappointed. I have taken on this whole housewife title until I complete nursing school. This is my adventure to discover what exactly a "housewife" is! Follow me this should be interesting!
