Today


Today isn't where I thought I was going to be this day. I thought I would have different responsibilities, different relationships, and different challenges.

It's true.

Life tends to surprise us.

Every day.

I know I am where I am supposed to be. I am being challenged, stretched, and taught exactly what is means to be me. Good thing I know that God exists. It's an even better thing that I know He can do more with my life than I can alone.

I know everything will be all right, because I believe in that principle.

You're my passionate hobbyist and a sincere do-gooder. You're my tease and a talk-it-through-er. So , " Tell me, what is it you plan to do   with your one wild and precious life? I plan to spend mine with you. Much Love, A (quotes by Mary Oliver)

the middle of somewhere

I was sitting here contemplating what fun/project cowboy will have scheduled for us this weekend. Sigh! The past two weekends, my muscles and patience were tested with digging post holes and building fence. I didn't get to do one thing that I wanted! So, not wanting to think about this weekend's hard work, my mind remembered my blog. I haven't thought of it or looked at it for a good bit. So, here I am! I glanced at my last blog post, which was written almost two years ago. It's crazy to look back and remember where I was and where I ended up today. I called my mom at the beginning of the week, and she was telling me about when she and my dad started dating. They were chuckling while remembering, but that is a moment that needed to happen to get from that point to this point. So, here's to progress - good, bad, ugly, fun, and sad! 1.
