We Move No Longer in Single File
We are 4 months today, 4 months since the wedding. How time files. Since then, it has been time spent trying to get our ordinary lives in order, trying to find our routine around the Jemej home.
Finally, after months of bills/documents that have piled up, I couldn't take it anymore. Got down to it, spent this weekend FILING them into order. No longer do you file away your own things, but you have double filing to do. Filing for 2 people. A feeling of sudden "grown-upness" hit me as I recall how my dad used to keep my siblings' and my personal folders for us.
Now, I'm on my own, to do it for my own family. For now, they are Mr and Mrs. I feel so blessed that I no longer walk alone, that I now have someone whom I call my lifetime companion.

I hate settling the bills and filing, yet there's immense satisfaction after completing them :P
