The waves have parted and I am happy again. There are several brief moments in my life where I am genuinely happy and this is one of those periods of time. I have been wanting to post for awhile but I have been so busy lately. I hate to not write. I will never remember all of the amazing details that make me smile right now, such as the gingerbread candle from warm glow that I got from Heather's baby shower. I know I won't remember the details of the baby shower. It was nice not a lot of people at the elks club in new castle. The past few weekends have been nice. This past weekend mat's brother's family came over and we watched the colts first football game and made are first batch of chille using fresh organic garden tomatoes. I have been trying to be more "crunchy". We have started chopping and storing fruit and vegetables in 8 oz containers. I also made my first batch of Granola Bars this past weekend. I would also like to try making yogurt sometime. I am slowly switching over to the made from scratch meals natural cleaners and a more natural way of life. I have also started clipping coupons again. I did the first year me and mat where together but I recently discovered internet manufacture coupons and meijers has a nifty coupon program that I have recently discovered. I am hoping to eventually go Gluten- free or at least cut back big time on my gluten intake. I have read that people with R.A benefit from a non-gluten diet. We did have Chinese this weekend and window shopped at hastings but we have drastically cut back on eating out and see it more as a date enjoying ones company type thing. That was also the first time in a year that I have had Chinese. We have also been walking on the weekends we don't work. I enjoy the Arboretum, the gorge trail, and the cardinal greenway. I have been working its not what I expected. I hate seeing 3 year olds getting there liquid zoloft or hearing about peoples homes getting robbed so they can get narcotics. I want to hold on to this job for another 2 years then I can start teaching and won't need anymore of these types of jobs that I don't really care for. I feel like I have learned a lot about humanity, why do people on medicad complain about a cheap copay when they have one when people are willing to spend a hundred dollars on one medication without complaint? Other memorable things lately- my sister in law found out she is having a boy today.
hanging out with brooke and devon and there new found friends carrie and derek.
going to the state fair instead of church because when we got there bible study was canceled so we just went to the fair with brooke and devon instead they wanted to go to Cracker Barrel too.
Class has started and mat has started school too, I know he will excel he is already a better student then I am.
We have been watching Freaks and Geeks and It's always sunny in Philadelphia through netflix, I will be sad when it ends because its so hard to find good tv shows. We where watching the office last summer and Lost in the winter and Battlestar the previous summer.
Life is good at the moment. I have also been driving this has been my green monster for awhile but I have conquered this fear.
