I was very determined to finish my toilet paper roll holder the same night I started it. I told my husband I needed to "accomplish" something for the day, so I didn't feel like my life was a giant waste of time. Being a new mom, I don't have as much time as I used to...not nearly enough time as I want. Raising a child takes a lot! Sometimes the dishes don't get put away, the laundry waits a few more days. I won't mention what goes on with the trash! Don't get me wrong, I have time to do all these things while she's napping, but I sometimes lose track of time on pinterest or facebook! or, I simply don't want to put the dishes away because I'm afraid she'll wake up after taking 2 hours to fall asleep!
Anyway. I like to make lists. I like to cross things off the list. Even if "take a shower" and "brush teeth" are the only two things that get crossed off the list. I like to feel like I've accomplished something. That toilet paper holder was on the list and I really wanted to cross it off!
When I got up in the morning, my husband had written this on the bathroom mirror (yes, we leave each other notes in dry erase marker on the mirror!):
This is THE sweetest and nicest thing anyone has said to me in a REEAALLY long time.
So glad I decided to make that guy my husband :)
