Taking One Day at a Time

It seems our lives have become a bit hectic and just stayed that way for months. My mom had a stint put in her heart on 12/26/07, then my dad had a heart attack and stroke on 12/27/07. Then I traveled to Virginia. Then I purchased my wedding dress. Then I purchased bridesmaids dresses and mailed them to my girls hoping they would fit. Then came the looking for a house. Then came our puppy Marty. Then the closing of our house. Then the moving in, painting, and setting up. Then came Ashley's first birthday party. Then came getting Marty neutered. Then came a girlfriends baby shower. Then came our Housewarming Party for the Johnson family. Last weekend we traveled to North Dakota for a graduation we didn't actually attend.

Breath, sigh, relax.

Now spring is in the air and it is the first week since September that my department has not had mandatory overtime. I am going to enjoy working in my new yard and walking my puppy. I am going to enjoy cooking my fiance dinner. I am going to enjoy singing to Marty before Brent has gotten home at the top of my lungs. Today's tunes came from The Phantom of the Opera. We will have to see what tomorrow brings.

Life is good.
