| | I don't even know when the last time I blogged was, but I really need to get back to it. So much happens every day, it seems, even in our rather normal, rather dull lives....and it's nice to have a written record of it to look back on. Just today I was looking back at some of my November 2005 postings - before I met Joey face to face - and it was really interesting to see where I was emotionally and in my daily life...and someday I may want to look back at May 2009 and see the same thing.
My in-laws left on Sunday night to go back home to Missouri. It was so hard to let them go. When I married Joey, I assumed it would just be me and him because I didn't think anyone would ever accept our marriage - but lo and behold, I was wrong. It was such a great feeling to have both my family and his convening at our house Sunday afternoon, and everyone getting along great. I love my in-laws as much as my own family, and even though we don't live close enough for us all to be together like that very often, it really meant a lot to me to have my "two worlds" brought together like that. I was sitting at the parade Monday in Springfield wishing the Bitticks were there with me and wishing Joey was there with me - because something that is very important to me is to share the life I've always had with the people I have now. I'm glad I had a chance to do that over the weekend while the Bitticks were able to visit, and I hope to be able to do it again very soon. It was so good to go to Ceasar's Creek with them and have them visit Northside. The only downside to the weekend was watching Mall Cop, which should never be watched by any self-respecting human being - NEVER.
Last night, Joey watched Slumdog Millionaire (which I tried to watch but kept dozing off), and we went to bed, and I went to work this morning. I picked up a couple of editing contracts today - a true blessing because things are going to be financially tight the next couple weeks. I don't know why, but some things just seem to be going really better for us here. It seems like some greater power is working in our favor, providing for our needs even when we don't have the means to do it ourselves. I know it is God, and I am thankful for it, albeit I'm not sure why we deserve it. But nevertheless, I'm glad to be home, and I'm glad things seem to be working out - that we are getting by financially, that I have a decent job (at least for now), that I am getting editing contracts, and that we have a great apartment and quite possibly a great house on the horizon.
I'm aware this blog makes no sense, but it is 11:34, and I am tired, so perhaps it is best to sign off....

...and so I ran...
