Right now in my life I have it pretty dang easy. While I normally work full time (my husband is a full time student) I currently (just started) only work half days because I am in my third trimester. I get up for Army PT from 6:30-7:30, have work call from 9-12 and then I'm free to do mommy-to-be housewifey stuff.. hence my new blog. Don't get me wrong, I'm super tired in the afternoon and can be basically useless.. but it's nice.
Right now my spare time evolves around my hubby, cooking, gardening, and our new chickens. I just finished this semester in school and can apply for my associates (slowly but surely) anytime.
My husband and I started eating clean about a month ago (except the 10 days we were on vacation.. too hard when I spend most of my time at various families house, etc.) We love it. We feel better, look better, enjoy looking for recipes and lost weight.
In order to eat this way we spend weekend time traveling to the Whole Foods and Austin, and farmer's markets- but the biggest adventure we took was to buy 6 baby chicks so we can have our own hens (and fresh, organic eggs!) We will have to wait another few months before they start laying, but I'm super excited.
We also started out first garden this year. Because we are home renters and not home owners yet, we went with a container garden, but I actually love it. It's pretty and fun to watch our seeds grow. (I'll admitt, I don't have the greenest thumb.) I am so excited for the day I actually get to eat something from our garden.
Other than that, I spend the rest of my time with the hubby or taking care of the house - so look forward to more posts about the chickens, gardening adventures, etc.
