I feel so blessed and lucky to have all I have in my life. Sometimes we just don’t sit down to think to be grateful for all that we do have and sometimes tend to dwell more in the negative side. Brad and I have been through some very tough times in our almost 6 years knowing each other but I just look at how far we’ve come and look at our wonderful apartment then just feel blessed all the way around. I feel amazing and seriously so happy. I talked to Brad about the whole job front and we decided that IF we can find someone qualified enough to take GOOD care of Katie then I would definetly get a job working at the same place he does and we could sit by each other every day! We’ll see though.. I wish my Mom lived here because I would trust her with Katie. Was hoping to maybe convince her to move here but that would be a HUGE step for her. We’ll see how it unfolds over time.

I’m really, really, really worried about a good friend of mine. This person has had a really hard, rollercoaster type life and as they got older, this person seemed to only make things worse for themselves. I love this person so much and I’m SO afraid they are going to continue doing what their doing and then wind up dead. I don’t know what to do……This person and I used to be SO CLOSE and now for years I’ve felt like I don’t even know who they are anymore. Their not the type to take “suggestions” on how-to handle their life either. I talked to some ladies at church about it and told them I thought about calling them and a lady there told me that she thought I SHOULD call that person. So today, I did. I called the number and It was a wrong number. Huh? I called one of their relatives and they gave me their new number. Tried once again and It said the person is currently unavailable so I’m guessing they had their phone off. I dunno. I don’t want to get a call or hear that this person has wound up dead. Such a tough situation. *SIGH* We’ll be going to the town where this person lives Friday so maybe I’ll think of something. Maybe not. I just care a lot about this person and hate to see them WASTE their life away!!!

Besides worrying about the above, things are great. Tomorrow and Friday are going to be VERY busy! Going tomorrow to look at mattresses with Brad’s Mom then gotta come home before 4PM because people from church are coming over then might have to pack in grocery shopping too since I don’t think we’ll have time Friday. Friday we’re heading out to the town where I spent my teenage years – every year they have a Festival and we wanna go! One of our good friends is gonna be there to hang out so should be fun!!! Today is Brad’s last work day until Saturday! He’s excited. I LOVE HIM SO SO SO SO SO MUCH! It was soooo cute – he asked me late last night after we watched The Biggest Loser If I wanted to do some exercises with him and I said sure. I JUST LOVE THAT. We did our exercise then soon after went to bed. I love my life. My husband is an amazing man. Katie has been real good today too and I let her watch Finding Nemo this morning! She watched it for a while then went about playing, crawling and pulling up to the couch and chair like she LOVES to do! I can’t wait to get out and about tomorrow and Friday. LOVE IT. Going to that Festival is going to bring back MEMORIES. My 10th grade year in High School I went to the Festival that Spring and was crushing on this guy at the time. I spent the whole time I was there kindof following him around. He told someone he thought I was stalking him, lol. I was just trying to get up the guts to go talk to him! Fail on my part lol. Oooh memories. It’ll be great though.

Again, I just want to say that I am THANKFUL THANKFUL THANKFUL to be alive. To have my loving, handsome husband and my beautiful, joyful little girl. Just remember to be grateful for all that you have in your life. Soon I’m gonna get up, get Katie’s food ready then feed her some dinner and eventually put her to bed! Have a wonderful evening !!!!
