| im glad to see xanga hasnt given up on me yet.
dear, dear, xanga.
where do i begin? first of all, some new changes have occurred in my life since my last post. i.e. the following:
1. i no longer travel to cities like Lincoln and Akron...cities that most people bypass on road trips for fear of malfunction. i am now an assistant...ooo...  but even more, im actually a wife...with a life. and i get to stay at home on weekends.
2. i am no longer a renter. jason and i bought a new home almost 4 weeks ago so we are now officially homeowners - aka: "homebodies" - whether that is by choice or by law, one does not have to wonder. all we know is that we love our cute house.
it's amazing to me how much different life seems to be now. i feel like i have grown up a lot this year but then maybe ive just gained a little more understanding of what life is about. in the past year, i have seen death and i have seen life, i have seen bliss and i have seen heartache, i have seen purpose and i have seen pain, i have seen beauty and i have seen muck...but whats most important is that i have seen love and i have seen it done right. and no matter how many times i have questioned God's plan or His desire for my life, for Jason's life, He always quiets those fears.
one of the most compelling parts of my life story has been my desire and need for a father...a dad, here on this earth. someone i could trust, believe in, someone who evokes self-worth out of me.
i love my husband...more than words could even do justice. i love his quiet strength, his passion for life, his integrity and desire to achieve more...but mostly, i love that he will one day be a father that will cause my child to evoke self-worth. how do i know this?
because he did it to me.

| xanga needed a little update. jason and i are in baltimore for work and its actually been pretty fun. we have been walking everywhere so my little toes are a little sore but everything is better with a sleep number bed. thats right, im talking about the superbulous sleep number bed in our hotel room. im already convinced that we need one at home. jason is the only one yet to convince. in the meantime, i will just have to savor the cushiony-ness that is this bed for the two more days that we are here. everything else is going really well. ive had a break from traveling with work for the past 3 or 4 weeks (that is until this week of course) so i am proud to have done pretty much nothing. i still get about two more weeks until life speeds up again. so thats about all for now...only because this sleep number bed is beckoning me to rest my head on its fantabulous pillows. i mean, seriously, why are these beds not being enforced in every domestic establishment in America? its a crying shame...really. goodnight - and try not to be jealous. |
