Lessons learned.

I'm learning that it's ok if you don't do laundry for three weeks, and when you finally do it, you have like a kajillion loads and your fiance's socks are on the crusty side. (Ew. That part's not as ok...)
& that it's alright if when you finally do your laundry, you don't fold your undies. Because, really, who's gonna know if they're wrinkly, and remember how you have a kajillion other things to fold/hang?
I'm learning that it's ok if you catch pneumonia and call in sick to work at both jobs, and skip class, and lay on the couch all day watching white trash television.
I'm learning that it's ok if you make a good lunch and then your fiance is super late getting there to eat said lunch and you try to keep it warm, and you try to be real patient, but eventually you remember you have no attention span and eat without him. And then he gets home. And then you decide to have seconds, just so you can eat with him. It's ok, even though you have to fit into a wedding dress in three months.
& I'm learning that it's ok if your whole blog post is run on sentences that probably make little or no sense.
& that it's ok to admit that you're a freakin' perfectionist, sometimes. That it's ok if you like some things done a specific way, even though it doesn't reeeeally matter...
I'm learning that it's ok if I'm not as awesome as my almost-MIL. It's ok if I don't make desserts every meal. Because, dangit, when I make rice crispies, they seem extra awesome.
I'm learning that it's ok if you kind of want to punch your neighbor children in the face every time you hear them running around like freakin' banshees and you come extra-close to doing so when they scream, "Hot girl!" every time they see you. (But it's only ok if you don't actually punch them...)
I'm learning it's ok to say, "I'm stressed." It's ok to not be Wonder Woman. & if sometimes, you put your hair in a messy bun and have a not-even-mascara, no-makeup type of day.
I'm learning that Pinterest weddings are a lot more fun than real weddings, and that I'm an awful wedding planner. I'm also learning that it's ok to say, "Whatever you think!" and "Yeah, that sounds great!" and be grateful for talented people who are willing to think up awesome ideas for me.
I'm learning that I'm blessed, and I'm learning to take things one day at a time and just. be. grateful.
