Flying through Month 1.

Geesh, Holy Cow, Unreal, I can't believe it, just plain old WOW! Noah and I have successfully made it to week 4 of marriage with minor bruises (those mostly are my fault, but that is another story to tell entailing keys and lofting over a car, needless to say I have better aim than I ever could of imagined.) Let's see here, we have accomplished quite a lot over the past weeks. First, our honeymoon was wonderful, perfect weather, great views, sweet resort, DOLPHIN SWIMMING!!!!! but one thing was missing.....edible food.  Noah and I are not picking people(my palette has greatly expanded and I deserve a pat on my back for that!!) but when we walked into a buffet full of food for dinner one night and came back to our table with Frosted Flakes and Froot Loops, something is wrong.  The honeymoon went so fast, I think that was due to the fact that law school was haunting our every move.  So, next on our calendar was law school orientation, which lasted a week...did I mention that it began the Monday after we got back from our honeymoon.  Poor Noah had no time to recoup, but I don't really think you can possibly prepare yourself for the unknown, so it almost worked in his favor!   I am officially Whitney Menold, spent 2 hours at the DMV only to find out that I needed Noah there to sign something and had to leave...oh man I was ticked, but the DMV was so entertaining it was almost worth the wait.   Hm, what else:  helped Whitney Hart(Noah's sister) set up her classroom & tried to get her baby names out of her...she is just to smart now outsmarted that girl.  Setting up a classroom has been like a life dream of mine! Loved it!  Meghan and Holly came to visit, took them to a cute cafe in Genoa and seriously spent hours just catching up in my family room.  I went home last weekend, hung out with my sister Danielle Jenn Bunny, and Meg, then on Saturday Holly, Shelb, Meg, and I checked out Sweet CeCe's A-Stinkin'-Mazing!  Timmy and Roe went up Saturday and visited Noah.  I wanted to make sure Noah had enough boyfriend time alone with them, the brain trust, please!:) It has been a great few weeks, but I have this dark cloud lingering over my head:  that consists of the fact that I still have not found a job.  Some times I am feeling good and confident that I am going to find something and others, I just feel worthless and wish I could find something.. I WILL find something and I know God has something out there for me.  Since I have been unemployed this last month I have resorted to my love of Do-It-Yourself projects.  I am an addict and wish I could paint our apartment walls or hang heavy objects.  Stupid rules! So I mostly spend my time looking at Pinterest  which is THE BEST WEBSITE I HAVE EVER SEENNNNNNNNN ah, I am in love.  I find so many things that one day dream of having, but can't right now.  Seriously after spending hours on the site I have found a new found love for spray paint.  Let me tell you, spray paint can transform anything into everything.  I adore it.  I will have to post pictures of my latest projects.  Most of of the stuff I have done is for my sister Danielle's birthday, so she will reap all my skills for her walls! Jealous, but trust me I have my bookmark folder on my MacBook jammed pack full of potential projects. Everyday Noah gets home from law school drained and hungry all I want to show him is stuff I found, I know he doesn't care, and some days he makes it known..haha, but others he looks with somewhat interest and says,"cool, you need to find a job!" (smiling)  I do, do, do need something!  As a recap, being a wife, is much different than being a grown child living with your parents until you are 22.5.  Laundry is a chore and it is just 2 of us, I have found that I love to cook meals, yay good things, and cleaning a tiny apartment over a house is the BEST!  I think we have used our dishwasher in the past month more than my mom has ever used her the past 9 years:) Love you mom!

With the sound of the gavel, this case is adjourned!  -Whit
