How I did it
It made me
happy 
How I did it: My university does not allow first semester Freshman to join Fraternities or Sororities. So I went to all the events in the fall that I could and in the spring I pledged Delta Delta Delta. Read how I did it…
It made me
Grateful!
How I did it: My husband and first started looking to buy a condo or house about a year ago with Zip Reality. A year ago the market was so darn high in California that we couldn't afford to buy a cardboard box. When the market started to come down we called our realtor again to start looking. This time we went a little further north and found we could afford a few houses. Read how I did it…
It made me
Ecstatic!
How I did it: We signed papers and waited for the county to file our paperwork. Once the paperwork was filed we received our keys! Our realtor came to the office today with the keys and two bottles of wine. I'm so excited I can't wait to move! Read how I did it…

My husband told me tonight he isn’t “sure” he wants to have children with me :( I want to ball. Back story, he has been married once…had a daughter, daughter is 12. Now we have been married almost 2 years and on the way home I told him about a woman who is on bed rest because of a pregnancy complication and it turned into an argument because he “isn’t sure he wants children”. I’m so hurt. He never said when we dates for 6 years that he didn’t want children. He would say, I want you pregnant and bare foot, I want you to have my kids….yadda yadda. Now that my clock is ticking, he doesn’t want them. WTF!
I said, “if you don’t want kids we should get divorced”. I love him with all my heart. We have everything going for us. No one in my family has NOT had children! I am one of 5. My oldest brother tried to have children, but ended up with one son and a step daughter. My older brother has 4 children. My sister has three children and my youngest sister is just now engaged, but I’m sure she will.
What do I do? I have been with my husband since 2002, and married for almost 2…..........
Fuck.
