i feel as if I'm in kind of a bad place in my life right now.
 no one told me that marriage was supposed to be like this.
 this...hard.
 no one said you would me fighting every night. 
no one mentioned that i would feel so angry all the time. 
no one passed along that i would feel my lowest right when my life is supposed to take off.
no one told me that i would feel like my heart is numb and ripping at the same time.
no one whispered that i would have doubts.
no one called me and said my voice would become dull every time i spoke to him.
no one wrote me and told me i would be sleeping alone.
no one told me i would forget how to smile.
no one said tears would replace laughs.
no one mentioned the fear.
no one passed along that i would feel alone in a marriage of two.
no one told me about the hurt. 

but no one ever told me to give up.

Is it too much to ask?

Honestly I feel as if i don't ask too much. I don't expect a lot. The bar is not a mile high. And yet...I am the one with the label as "nagging wife"
It has been brought to my attention that cleaning is kin of hard for the small adams family. Im constantly repeating my self over and over again.  " turn off the light, take the trash out, put your stuff away, clean up you mess"Some would say i should probably just make a CD and keep it on repeat.
Its not that i Just love getting after people its just that i feel like if i don't say it 30 times nothing ever gets done. I have come up with a new but costly method to solve my problems and my trash can has never been fuller. My husband may not like his things thrown way with out even a sec on thought but its the only way to get my point across but look  at this face.
And quite frankly I'm sick of my face looking like this all the time. But on a better note. Jeremy is doing very well starting this new restaurant. For you who don't know he's starting a new restaurant called from scratch. Its in down town slc right next to the big wells fargo building. He has started working trying to find workers and servers and he still needs more. There expected to open sometime in september. Its going to be a italian restaurant with deep dish pizzas and its own flour mill. He's super excited to be staring this journey and so am I.

Family


Family has always been kind of a sensitive subject to me. No ones family is perfect. No one had that perfect childhood. No one ever really feels like they can be perfect. My family is cracked but not broken. Fixable but not mended. Promising but no promises.
This picture is whole but also unfinished. About a year ago i lost my little sister. She was struggling her whole life and finally she couldn't take like anymore. I will never forget that day. It was almost like the air on my shoulders was to heavy for me to bear. I left like my whole had could go right through my heart because of the hole it left. Im not going to lie and say I'm totally better because I'm not but I'm inching my way along. Anyway i come from a family of 7 kids and we grew up in little alpine utah. Im really into music and the way it makes me feel. So light inside and free.
