Life Under Water

Most of my day yesterday consisted of manual labor and whining about how sore I am from it.

It was, however, a very nice day, and here are 3 good things that happened yesterday (03/08/14):

1.  Gravel, shovels and buckets were a big part of my day yesterday. I helped my boyfriend with his Eagle Scout project- building a pathway to a little outdoor chapel. I got to be outside in a really nice weather, to do some physical work and to interact with fun people. We made some good progress and it was very satisfying to look how far we've come at the end of the day. 

2. I came back home, all dirty, tired and sore, and immidiately took a shower, then a nap and then spent some time with my family. These all felt great after all the effort. Mom curled me up and cuddled me, it was great.

3. My boyfriend was very thankful for all the hard work and effort I put into this. He also acknowledged how supportive I am and it made me very happy.

We got to talk about things we don't know about each other and other fun things and he told me:

"Sometimes I get used to it and kinda take it for granted, and then sometimes it just takes me by surprise how amazingly beautiful you are". This was very sweet and definitely made me smile.
