Another Day...Another Weekend...

I love my car.

Well, I have big plans for this weekend!  I always find myself with so many things that I want to get accomplished over the weekend.  I was surprised that last weekend, going home for Labor Day, that me and Cody got everything done that I wanted to get done!  We built our TV stand and I had time to learn from my mom some stuff about crochet, and we got to see all of our friends and watch some college football, etc.

So hopefully this weekend I will also be productive.  I want to do some more crafting!  I am still working on my first crochet scarf, but last weekend I brought back to Houston one of my mom's sewing machines and I just got a great idea for a Halloween costume to wear to the Renaissance festival this year that would be the perfect project to start off with.  

At least I am hoping so...I may even be super creative like I was last year with my Xena costume and make up my own pattern...

Last night was class 2 of Dave Ramsey.  I know I said this already, but I think that this class will be really good for me and Cody.  The number one reason why people get divorced today is because they fight about money.  I could see money being a source of problems for me and Cody seeing as how I've grown up always worrying about it and he really hasn't.  Last night before we went to sleep we even talked about some communication issues we've had in the past and it made me feel good to get some of it out.

We need a wake up call to realize that we are not dating anymore...we're married.  So we can't just keep keeping things to ourselves when we have some sort of issue...which as you can probably tell about me, I have no problem speaking up whenever I have a problem with something that Cody does.

Cody, on the other hand; doesn't ever say anything to me whenever I do things or say things that upset him.  He just sort of gets over it.  And that does not make me happy.  I don't want to be this nagging, rude person who always makes him feel like anything he does is never good enough; but unless he starts speaking up whenever I do something that makes him feel that way, I'll never change!

To me it's not nagging - it's communicating.  But to Cody, I have a feeling that it's just nagging because any time I start talking about what I want to get done around the house, or ask him to do dishes or anything like that, I can see him tuning me out, and no matter how much I try to talk and explain how I feel to him, he never gets it!!

Men.
