Monday, Monday

I have a new car. It's a BRAND NEW CAR! I have never had a brand new car. I'm not even sure that my parents have ever had a new car, at least not in my lifetime. I can't even begin to express how grateful I am to be in a place in my life where I can afford a new car. Or to have a man in my life who helps make these things possible. I currently live in the nicest house I've ever lived in, I have the nicest car I've ever had, and I have the best job situation I've ever had. I hope this doesn't all come across as bragging. I just have been overwhelmed by the blessings in my life lately.

Yesterday, Grace, Wes, and I went to the Cabarrus County Fair. It was maybe the best fair I've ever been to, and that's really sort of saying something. We didn't get to do a whole lot because we got there kind of late and were on a limited budget. But we got to eat some good fair food (funnel cake anyone?) and hear some old guys ROCK OUT some bluegrass and pet some farm animals and fwalk around and see all the lights and sights. It was really a fun time. Plus, this fair is HUGE. And it felt really safe there. And I didn't feel like I was going to get hepatitis or anything. It was really wonderful. I recommend it to anyone in the area.

So as far as healthiness and eating better go, I haven't really gotten a good start. But the good news is that we have to be frugal this week (didn't really expect to get a new car this weekend...), which means that we're going to be cooking all of our meals, which means that we can be healthier. And Mondays are historically the easiest day of the week to start something new. Or RE-start something.

So, Monday, Monday, be good to me.
