Well, folks... it's been 4 days short of A YEAR since I last blogged! Wow! Not that I don't have some good excuses. We moved into our new house, went on vacations, I graduated from college, we traveled a bit more, hosted our very first Christmas in our own home, celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary and attended (sadly) three funerals. We've been busy!
I've been a little intimidated about picking this back up again. How do you come back after so long? Britney can do it, but I'm not sure I can. I've decided to just dive in.
So, I thought I'd tell you a sweet story about my thoughtful husband. I've been in a bit of a "funk" lately. Tim called me at 3:00 yesterday while I was still at work.
"Hey honey, it's 3:00"
"Yes, it is."
"So you only have about an hour and a half left until you go home!"
"That's true."
"But I thought you might need a little motivation to make it through the last hour and a half of work, so I thought this would be a good time to call and tell you there is a small surprise waiting for you when you get home."
"Really?!?"
"Yes! And it isn't even a sexual surprise, so you can get really excited!"
"Well thanks! I am excited."
He sure knows me well! That last hour and a half flew by, and I drove home to find a quart of my very favorite frozen custard (chocolate custard with strawberries and chocolate chips) waiting for me in the freezer. I ate chocolate custard and macaroni and cheese for dinner (comfort food, anyone?) and then went to have my butt kicked at my first of 11 F.I.T. (Females in Training) classes at our church. Michelle teaches the class, and she graciously laughed off the fact that the custard and mac & cheese were fueling me through the work-out.
Today I'm thanking God for paid time off, a sweet husband, open windows, and exceptional girlfriends who make working-out bearable. And tonight is Girls Night Out! Woo hoo!
