Other notes:
Brandon has been a saint through all of this. He has been good about compromising on alot of things and only sticking to his guns when he really feels strongly about something. Whereas i fight for almost everything ;] He has filled up my humidifier almost every night and is constantly getting me water or doing millions of other little things i am constantly asking him for. He is really happy at his job and i am super proud of him for working his ass off to get what he wanted. He puts me at ease about a lot of things which is so necessary.

okay tyra is on! im out ;]
