What a lovely thread Joel!
My ramble:
This past weekend, Mozz and I went camping for our third year anniversary. The weather was beautiful and it was positively the best camping trip I've ever been on. We cooked sausage and eggs by the campfire for breakfast. We toasted marshmallows and made s'mores. We took hikes, enjoyed sunrises and sunsets, ate lunch by the water, made love in our tent. I had a bit of a spiritual re-awakening. And that is realizing how little I am in this big world. It is that littleness that makes my life so incredibly grand. I can make such a beautiful impact on those around me and actually make their lives better. What an amazing concept! That I can make other people's lives better! Mozz and I bonded incredibly close emotionally and spiritually. Three years into this marriage and it just keeps getting better!!!
We decided that maybe next summer might be a good time to start a family.
I just ate three chocolate cookies for lunch.
It's a beautiful day outside and I resent that I have to be inside doing invoicing.
My boss just gave me a good-bye hug on her way out the door and now I can smell her perfume lingering on me. For some reason it's comforting.
My boss is also helping me redecorate my house. We're picking out new fabric to reupholster my living room set and I can't wait to see the final product!
My house is a mess and Neil's best friend is coming over tonight. And I don't care that the house is a mess. He's a good friend and will still love us.
Mozz and I decided to wake up early at least three times a week and do a spiritual devotional together. So we're being pretty good about it and then praying together. All of this snuggled in bed with our kitties purring next to us. It's the best way to wake up in the morning. This morning was one of those mornings.
I'm feeling very positive about my life right now. I feel strong. Like no matter what Life hands to me, I will be able to muscle through it. Maybe not gracefully, but I will be able to do it successfully and come out better and stronger in the end.
Life is good.
