Day 5: 10/27/16

Today was our lucky day. Normally, when we plan things, like to go down in the morning and be able to do things that normal couples are able to do, it fails somehow. Luckily, when we both planned on getting to school quite earl today, it all worked out. Normally, when it works out, we have good solid rest of the week, theres not a lot of stress there, and we are able to have our time. And I'm grateful. 

This is one of the things that I probably wouldn't straight up tell her because it is an inside thought, you don't say those thoughts out loud, they stay inside. The job I applied for hired me, and it is my job at Kumon. I kind of knew when I applied that the jealousy inside Maddy would be there, whether or not she was going to show it. I totally understand why, she wants to be a teacher, and that is basically the job that I got, I get to help kids better their math and reading. When I told her yesterday that they wanted to hire me, she was happy, she was so happy, she said she was proud of me. I love when I get told things like that, because I don't hear it often. But soon after, the more I talked about what I get to do and the plan, the less happy she got. The rest of the night was me helping her apply there. I knew she was going to be jealous, and I think it's awesome that theres a possibility that we could be working together, but she was stressed because she had so many things to do, and that she didn't have time for a job, but the second that I said to just wait until after Christmas break, she emailed them. And that's fine, props to her for that, I'll stand by her side the whole time. I can just tell that the happiness for me in the beginning wasn't all happiness. 

But today was our lucky day. We don't get them often, and I'm always in a good mood no matter what, it is just more of if she is in a good mood. And if she is happy, then I'm ten times happier.
