book

Do you know how hard it is to find a good book?
One that keeps you going and going
Pages turning and turning 
And no matter how happy the ending is you cry because you have finished it.

Mostly there are the books where the author threw together words, trying to sound witty and intellectual (Candace Bushnell *cough cough*), failing, yet managing to make readers wonder how this author ever got something published in the first place?
(Now, don't blame it on Kindle)
I hope my book isn't like that.
Some day when I get it published I hope people cry at the end and desperately search for a tacky advertisment in the back that heralds the coming of a second volume.
(look in vain for there will be none)

too many movies

I wanted life to slow down after the wedding and it has
I love coming home each night to eat dinner and hang out with my husband
But I'm feeling lame because lately all we've done is sat around watching Netflix and taking the occasional walk
I'm not sure what else to do though, he works odd hours and there isn't much to do in town

What should we do besides watching movies and making Walmart runs?

Oh! I did get my hair cut today and its super cute! :)

liar liar

She doesn't think its wrong to lie
I think lying is wrong
Its her life
Its my life
But when it effects the lives of others I think I need to do something.
Right?
I think I need to tattle but I'm afraid its going to come back to bite me in the butt.
Ouch...

making it easier

Meet my new best friend:
(vivideloquence :: look me up! Let's be friends.)
Its convenient, easy to navigate, v. simple...
I see a long-term relationship in our future.

gifted

I'm starting to understand my emptiness
I have a gift
and I'm not using it.

Q. what is my gift?

I'm not making a difference
I'm not learning about God
or people
I'm learning about me
me
me
me
me is not enough

things be different now

Ways this summer is different than the last:

I'm married
Have a good job instead of working nights at IHOP
AIR CONDITIONING! (important staple of life in MO)
I'm paying off school debt. Being debt-free isn't too far away
I will be writing again soon. I WILL. (Hold me to that!)
One of my closest friends will be in another country :,(
I weigh less than I did and the number  is still dropping!
I'm learning how to make colorful, fun, healthy food for everyday
My stress level is leveling off

Its going to be lovely.

rockies

Every time I'm in Colorado I'm always amazed at how much there is to do.
hiking, swimming, walking, rafting...

In MO my main activity is avoiding the humidity,
otherwise I would resemble Farrah Fawcett...
  except worse, my hair would curl towards my face, probably to cover it.
