Feast or Famine

Feast or famine that is my life right now! With men, dating, social life, and of course finances! I seem to still live paycheck to paycheck on a preschool teacher salary/ Nanny Tessy/ Tessy Taxi/ I need some extra money flow! Sometimes I think my only hope is to marry rich and successful cuz my parents aren't hooking me up anytime soon.
No, seriously though, I'm all about hard work and living a righteous life! And that is exactly what I'm looking for in a future EC! A guy that is not a slothful servant but anxiously engaged in doing good works and showing me loving kindness as much as possible, daily would be nice.
I've been in a lot of homes and seen first hand successful marriages and how the spouse can be treated on a daily basis. I know that happiness in marriage is most likely to be achieved by living the gospel standards and like they say, "a couple that prays together stays together!" LTLTLTLTLTLTLTLTLTL OMGosh I'm getting set up on a date with a guy named, Lance, he is divorced with a three year old kid but who's to judge. I've reached that certain age where the men I'm dating have a history some good and bad baggage. All that matters is if they have progressed and if they have their priorities straight now! For the first time in my life I am actually praying daily for my husband and that I can be worthy of him and that he is living in such a way that he is worthy to take me to the temple! I read in The Miracle of Forgiveness a great quote by Spencer W. Kimball, " The crown of character is self control." I have a desire to have more self control, when it comes to finances, shopping for frivolous things, eating out frequently, and saying no to stupid things!
