Well, my last post hoped that the Cards won the Series. They did. I don't watch base ball, except for the ANGELS. But I was really glad to hear the Cards won. I did a little jig. HB

OK, well I was noticing it has been a while since my last post, and it isn't as though anyone reads this. (btw if you do, you can send me an email or post a comment letting me know what your thinking) What has happened since April? My husband and I bought a house!! Well actually it was being built since oh about March ... We moved in last month ... Still unpacking. For some reason I find myself dragging my feet on the unpacking part ... I have that which I need unpacked ... we are comfortable ... But I really should get to those boxes I guess. It has been wonderful though ... I love it here. Not only did we move to a new house ... but also a new town ... same county though. So we have our same jobs. Which is good. We have a new church. Still getting used to it though ... but good preaching and great worship. I look forward to getting more involved there. We also have a dog now. Our dog is a small hyper active bundel of energy. She is already attached to us, and we to her. God has really blessed us, I am trully thankful. HB

This entry is actually a bit after the fact. I needed time to figure out what to say. Even as I type I only have a vague idea ... bear with me ... This past year has been amazing. The wedding pictures are online, well a few are. The wedding web page is online, and has been updated. The first has been finished. We celebrated our First Anniversary!! :) What did we do? Dinner (Salmon and Wine), music (Smooth Jazz), and Dancing. ooh yah!! Candles. Candle lit Romantic Dinner. It was awesome! So sweet and tender. But the year has not always been awesome. Oh it has been a good one, a Blessed one. But when two independant adults join forces, it isn't gonna be easy to work as a team. No matter how difficult marriage has been, I wouldn't change a thing. This whole year has been blessed. We haven't had to deal with alot of frustrations newly married couples go through, alot was dealt with during our courtship, and in pre-marital counseling with our pastor. Communication is the Key to wedded bliss. The day after we got married, my grandmother passed to Heaven. That was tough. Bittersweet. Thing is, even though I miss her, I know she is in Heaven. There were times I wanted to talk to her, and wasn't able to ... so I went back into memory, and tried to figure out the answer to the delemma with my memories ... some answers were there, and some I found within, planted by my loving parents, and pastors. Some answers my grandmother modeled during her life. Strength, prayer, standing by your man, support, encouragement ... list goes on ... What she taught my father which he implemented into his marriage, which I am learning to implement in mine, I am still learning. My mother is teaching me too. That which she has learned, and that which she instilled in me as I grew. Patience. God is always teaching me this. Even now, as we are buying our first home, I am being taught Trust, Patience, and Encouragement. All of which I lack. As a wife, I am learning to trust my husband as he makes decisions for us, and for our future. Patience to see it through, and encouragement?? I tend to be realistic. ... some might say pessimistic ... I see all sides of a concept ... both the good and the bad ... I am learning to trust in my Lord, so that I can be encouraged and to be an encourager. I am learning that my husband needs me to encourage him as he takes the position of Head of Household. As he leads and guides. This year has been difficult. But as I said earlier, I wouldn't change it for anything. I have enjoyed this year, and am looking forward to many many many more. Grandma saw all sides to an issue too ... but she had great faith. For that she instilled into me too ... my parents re-inforced ... and my husband constantly reminds me of it. For all this, and many more ... I am greatly Blessed.
I have learned and am learning to take one day at a time, push my husband in his sleep to tell him to roll over, spend more time with my husband, leave work at work, cook savory dishes, and trust in my Lord in all things, including buying a home.

Giving Thanks
Mood:
a-ok
Topic: Blessings
Now is the time when I always sit back and think about that for which I am thankful for. Giving thanks is one of the things I usually do when talking to my Lord, but it isn't something I usually do with friends and family. Even in Prayers, I don't always give thanks. November just has something to cause me to give thanks and to think about what is so good about my life. I am thankful for a husband who is tender and loving and understanding. I thankful for an extended family who also loves me. I am thankful for a job which may not always be emotionally easy, but one in which reminds me how Blessed I am in my life. I am thankful for the Peace I have in Jesus. I am thankful that I have a supportive family, husband, and friends.I am thankful that I have a vehicle that works, food in fridge and cupboards, clothing, linens, and a roof over my head. I am thankful for sobriety, peace, and comfort. I thankful for being blessed.
All for that which I am thankful are blessings. I am feeling very Blessed.
It is well with my soul.
