sweet days of past

Looking in to the past, reminiscing of recent events. The solitude of the ocean, the fish, seemingly joyous as they swim and eat. Not a care in the world has these fish captive.  They are completely content not knowing from minute to minute if a shark will swim along to eat them, or if they will be caught in a someones net.  I suppose, no fear = joy.

 The rush of excitement jumping off the edge of the boat, into the cool water was an unsuspected delight.  Seeing the creations of God, swim freely, beautifully was an amazing release I will not soon forget.  Sharing moments like this with such a cherished friend made them that much more real. Had i been alone, it may have been imagined.

Tomorrow!

Okay so I am a little more than excited to be heading out into the open seas tomorrow with our best friends! This is going to be the best vacation EVER! I sincerely cannot wait to be on the boat, but I think I am even more excited to see KC and Ashley's reaction to the incredible ship!  Relaxation, rejuvenation, and be best friendships for 4 1/2 days... What more could this girl ask for? 


On a not so happy note, My Husbands grandmother is suffering from sever Alzheimer's and Dementia. I ti breaking my heart to hear how last night she wondered out of the house in the middle of the night, and went walking down the highway.  I pray that God will protect her in her fragile state. And that God helps my in laws have understanding and peace as she travels through this difficult change in life.  I truly wish there were more I could do.

Blessed beyond measure

The past two years have been an opportunity for me to realize that I am, in fact, blessed beyond any type of measure. I have a wonderful husband. I mean he is really out of my league. Not only is he extremely hot, he is kind, giving, sincere, and devoted.  He helps anytime he can. His character is as close to impecible as one can get. Then there are my children. My two sweet, beautiful children, who honestly make me laugh daily.  These are the two people of whom I feel the most pride. Maybe because they are 1/2 me. They are cool type of kids who rock out to Def Lepord, Queen, and Guns and Roses.  We live in a very nice apartement, and although we really can't wait to get into a house, we are currently content-ish.  My job, well, its fantastic. I like all of my co-workers, despite thier quriks, and because of their quirks.  I really couldn't ask for a better job.  I am really proud of my friendships though.  I am such a luck lady to have friends who i can count on, who can also count on me.  They are truly a blessing in my life, and our commraderie brings me a simple and personal sincere joy.

So my conclusion is, I am blessed. Blessed and happy.
