My Home Away From Home! <3

So, here is the deal- I work 70+ hours in a week, this is spread out between 2 jobs. (and usually, 2-3 outfit changes through out the day...no, I'm not kidding.)

Yesterday as I was rushing, ok, let's be real, I was in 5:30 traffic trying to get across town, anyhow, I was rushing from one job to the next...I was sitting in my car eating my dinner, which was pretty awesome; peanut butter and jelly sandwich, Keebler Elf cookies, a Baggie of carrot sticks, an apple and peanut butter straight from the container with a spoon.

I felt a little lonely, driving, eating my dinner and listening to some music. Now, let me tell you about my home away from home, aka my car, and the type of relationship we have.

I hop in at 7:00 am, usually I'm finishing some type of breakfast, oatmeal, a beagle, whatev, but ALWAYS iced coffee. We drop the kids off and blast some music to wake me up a little more- just incase the coffee failed for the day. We hang out until 7:45 when I get to work- my trusty front seat holds more than you would think. In fact, if you were to walk by my passenger side window, you would see an array of dishes, making it a kitchen sink, enough laundry (remember the changes of clothes mentioned earlier- yeah, they all go there) to make a load of laundry- hence turning it into my laundry room. That front seat also also turns into my dining room table sine all my meals are right there. Amazingly enough, it also turns into my shoe rack, yeah, I have 6 pairs in there right now, and my trash can too- lets not really go there. It's my medicine cabinet, my book shelf, my storage room- oddly enough the photo below is actually when it was ORGANIZED!

You might think with all that crap...errr personal necessities, that I would have an emergency kit, a first aid kit, a flashlight, some jumper cables and maybe even a sleeping bag- not the case- AWEFUL I KNOW! I will be accepting donations starting now- message me as to where to send these supplies. In all reality, these things are on my 'to buy when I have extra money' (which will probably in another 19 years when all my kids BETTER have graduated form college...) list. Maybe I should add it to my Christmas list...how lame can I really get? Continue to follow this blog and you'll find out JUST how lame I can get.

So- there it is- my relationship with my home away from home. I can't help but be a little disgusted with myself. But it is what it is- I do plan on 'unpacking' this home into my real home this weekend, maybe I'll vacuum it and wash it...

So until my next post- stay classy! DO NOT FOLLOW MY EXAMPLE!

  4. Stay Classy... HAHA LOVE that movie!

    So I was thinking as I read about your "relationship" that the size of your car is roughly about the size of an average New York City apartment. Based on your inventory and your photograph you are following one of the most important rules for living in said small space. Only have what you need! Therefore I think you are well ahead of the game. Before you know it you will be putting up a partition of some kind to section off the bedroom side from the dining room side. However I strongly advise to resist this idea. ;D I am so stupid, haha

Who am I?

Who am I? Very good question, who am I? The simple answer, a Crazy Busy Mom of 4, but are answers ever simple? Answering the ‘Who Am I’ question seems somewhat like a tricky question- Its like when you go on an interview or apply for college. Are you sincerely interested in who I am? Or, are you more interested in who I think you want me to be? Or do you not even care and merely ask on the grounds of a formality. Answering this question gives me anxiety- because, really, WHO AM I? My name is Rhiannon, I am 30 year old and I have blond hair, my Pinterest has over 1500 pins and 48 boards. I have only made 3 things from my boards- I work 70+ hours a week spending a majority of that time with a high school football team that makes me laugh and also terrifies me of raising two boys!   Oh, I am also a wife to a wonderful husband and 4 children, one of whom I was not sure would make it to the age of 5- amazingly; on October 2, 2012 he turned 5. Our next goal is to make it to the age of 6. T

The Ramblings of a Wife

Steven and I, along with our small group are going through a very convicting and soul searching book by Mark and Grace Driscoll titled; Real Marriage: The Truth About Sex, Friendship, and Life Together. It is just that- REAL. It's not sugar coated, just for couples who's marriages are perfect or for delusional people who don't think marriages take work- it's for REAL people who are going through REAL struggles or looking how to improve their marriage, serve their spouse and serve their Lord. Like I said- it's convicting. Throughout this study I have learned that as a wife to Steven, I am mediocre at best- sadly. This has caused me to examine my heart, examine my marriage and how I, as a wife contribute to our marriage...and let's be honest, I fall short. This is not to say that I don't love my husband, on the contrary, I love him with my entire heart- with my entire being. Yet, 90% of the time my words are much louder than my actions and I come up short.
