Hello world. Hello November.

Well, Hello.

My my, it's been a while.
Instead of blog post after blog post of catching up, here's a quick recap of my life. March - October.

 

 

Those happy faces smiling back at you are my friends and family. I am blessed. 2012 has been pretty good to me, despite some of not so good stuff she's brought. That comes with every year though, doesn't it? With only two months left of 2012, I'm glad to see the holidays upon us and to greet 2013 with open arms. My theme for November? Simplicity. (Have a declared simplicity before? Oops.) Quite opposite from October, my November calender is quite empty. It's wonderful. November, hats off to you. Happy you're here.

Cami, I officially dedicate this blog post to you. I'm back. (I think..)

Heart of Gold

I've always hated Neil Young so, you can understand that my sudden obsession with this song is an odd one. But, there you have it. Can't get enough of this song lately.

24.

Today is my 24th birthday.
I'm home from work, sick with the worst flu that I've ever had.

But..

Grateful for a husband who takes such good care of me, rubs my back as I throw up into a garbage, and makes me laugh when I want to cry. Grateful to be able to spend the morning on the couch, watching a movie with Jared until he left for work.

Grateful for neighbors and friends offering to help. Grateful for birthday messages on Facebook that truly brighten my day. Grateful for phone calls, emails, and texts.

Grateful for the last four years I've had with my Aunt Deanne. Not a January 31st goes by without me celebrating her. She had a heart attack four years ago today and left the world for a short time and then came back to it. So grateful she did.

Deanne, Happy 4 years. They wouldn't have been the same without you here.
