On the blog again....just can't wait to get on the blog again....

I've been too AWOL. Glad I don't have a big following. Not that I'm that interesting.

So, what's been going on with me? First of all, good stuff. My dearest hubby and I have been together 13 years starting tomorrow (first date Feb 12, 1993). We had a great date last night. We ate at a great local restaurant, not crowded, fast, good service, and yummy caramel turtle ice cream cake...mmmmm. Went to a movie that is in the same building. It's neat because the cinema has 4 theaters, and the newest one's seating is right over the restaurant's kitchen. It's a neat layout. Convenient too.

We saw "The Pink Panther". I really, really have to recommend this movie. Absolutely hilarious physical comedy. I love Steve Martin anyway, but he really did a great job in this without it being too silly. Great plot and I think we only heard one curse word in the whole thing, and it was spoken in a such a heavy french accent that I didn't even catch it. I think teenagers and pre-teens would love it too. A few minor sexual innuendos, but nothing vulgar. I haven't laughed that much in a long time.

A few yucky things happening. Marital troubles among several church members really been wearing me down. Surprising, sad, confused, helpless. I'm not sure how to feel about it. It's made me scared about my own marriage and those around me. No marriage is safe from Satan's attacks. Maybe these happenings will serve to strengthen our marriages--maybe some good will come from it. I'm praying for healing in these situations and also for stablization in our own marriage and those we love. I think it's really hard when people reach and cross that10 year mark in marriage, and when you have young kids. Time is so stretched and you just get bored and annoyed with each other sometimes. It's hard to re-kindle the romance, especially when one or both feel they're not getting what they need. When you get married, you don't realize how much work it takes to STAY married. It's hard and sometimes people get hurt. You can only pray that God will help you work it out.

Got a Depo shot the other day, probably my last for a while. I will start a new BC method in May, maybe the Nuva Ring, then maybe in December or January we'll try for number 3. It seems so soon right now. I feel like I just got Zoe home :) She's a year old already! Almost 13 months now. 5 teeth. Only nursing once at bedtime now. I dread weaning her. I'll miss that bonding time. I'll enjoy seeing the big milestones coming though. She's trying to walk. She says "Uh-oh" and "ma, ma", "da da", "na na" for banana. Developing such a cute personality. I do miss my little baby though. Went so fast. Why does time fly when you're in love? ;)
