My... How things have changed!

We used to best friends, spending hours each week together.

We used to be so close and in sync with each other.

However life happens, schedules got busy and it became

harder and harder to make time for you.

After a year and a half last night was supposed to be our triumphant reunion.

I guess I am not the same person I used to be, I have somehow grown soft over the years. I could not keep up with you. This morning instead of being excited to see you again, I find myself looking for reasons to avoid you.

Perhaps with a little more time we will be able to rekindle

our relationship.

Intervention Needed!

I am sad to say that Aaron and I have become LOST "Junkies!" We have recently acquired seasons 1-4 (thanks to a dear co-worker of mine) and we just cannot help ourselves. The dishes have begun to pile up and we have lost many hours of precious sleep to this addicting TV show. The bad thing about having the whole season on DVD is that when one episode ends the next is always there beckoning you to watch.

On your mark, get set, GO!

Deep breath, hold it,
Head down,
eyes squeezed tight
Fists clenched....


Today is the beginning of yet another semester in my college career, which admittedly is taking a lot longer that I had anticipated.

Sometimes I feel as though I am running the Kentucky Derby as I try to balance school, relationships, work, church, and regular day to day housework. I often times feel very overwhelmed, tired and out of breath. I have enjoyed it though, I have finally found a degree that "speaks" to me, and for the first time in my college career I feel like I have some direction and I am on a path that I will not only excel at but enjoy too. I am also excited because there is FINALLY an end on the horizon, not for a while mind you, but at least I know where I'm headed.
