Vincent and I are so excited about graduating from Furman in less than a month from now.
March was a full month for us, and for the Mollie Magic business. It's been really neat to see the business take off, and start to grow.
God has certainly blessed us with all the odd jobs He's given us to help us pay the bills. Right now, we are housesitting/dog sitting for a family I typically babysit for. He's also given me some great steady babysitting jobs, and continued to bless Vincent with his waiting job and the business!
So, the other day, Vincent was washing his face, and I noticed a reddish mark in the shape of a ring on his back. I gasped, and told him that I thought he had ring worm. He looked in the mirror, and agreed. He went on to say how it's pretty contagious so I should probably wash the sheets. I started freaking out, and running around looking at my skin to make sure I didn't have it. After he looked up what to do to get rid of it, he said it was really weird how perfect a ring it was. Typically, it's not such a perfect ring and it typically itches, as well. He also mentioned that it could be in my scalp. Oh, that really got to me. I started scratching my head, and running around screaming that it was probably in my scalp. I then tore off the sheets from our bed, and his ring flew out. Vincent, being the great detective he is, realized that he probably had slept on his wedding ring the whole night which caused an indent on his back. We started hysterically laughing, and I took the duct tape off that we had put on his skin (we didn't have bandaids) to quarantine the ringworm. I then took his wedding ring and placed it on the ring on his back . . . perfect fit. Anywho, since the sheets were all off the bed, I went ahead and washed them. :)
I'm glad I have such a smart husband. I would have been going crazy the whole week scrubbing down everything he could have come in contact with.
Speaking of my smart husband, I came home the other week from a long (but fun!) day of teaching, and he was cooking dinner! So sweet.
And with that beer butt chicken you see him making (it was delicious), I made some chicken avocado salad from the leftovers. Paired with some homemade sweet potato fries, it's one of our favorites.
Chicken Avocado Salad:
Mix leftover chicken, one avocado (mashed up), a tiny bit of mayonnaise, 2-3 chopped green onions, cilantro, and sea salt together.
It's super easy, and it's extremely tasty.
God has been teaching me a lot of patience lately. I've had to put all my trust in Him, and rely on Him for a teaching job for next year. I truly want to teach, and I'm so happy that God led me to this field. However, it's a competitive field, and I have to remind myself that God is in control everyday. I know that everything will turn out the way God intends it to. God has done an amazing job of taking care of me and Vincent while we're in college. A lot of people thought we wouldn't be able to live on our own while in college, and they were right... without God's help and His sweet sovereignty, there is no way we could have done it. But with His help, we have rocked being married our senior year!!
I haven't planned next week's meals yet, but here's what it was for us two this week:
