but as love that's really love can never fail but fail it does

stupid blogspot - this was my blog from yesterday that wouldn't post...

i've tried unsuccessfully this evening to get on here and blog but geez, a gazillions times a charm.
i was gonna last night but right as i sat down to, the storm came. i quickly shut off the computer so i wouldn't get lightning'd.

that storm sure was something. it poured for hours and the lightning never stopped. the sky never went dark. me and the baby were peeking out of the blinds behind the couch when a huge bolt cracked right outside the window. we both jumped and ran. the kitties slept under the bed and i had to sleep all alone all scared...

it's been weird without lincoln here. i am kinda used to it because of his work schedule, but i hate sleeping alone. the bed is too big with him gone. i miss the night time talkies before sleepy time. and the kiss kiss goodnight. he'll be back tomorrow night so all is well.

the countdown to the one year has commenced. it is a week away. since it falls on a wednesday we are celebrating saturday night. i made us reservations at a fancy restaurant on camelback that came highly recommend in my internet searching. we did get quite a few suggestions about the melting pot, but i wasn't sure if fondue was for me. i think i will have to try it some time and probably somewhere else before i go and spend that kind of money on dipping things. but that's just me.

it amazes me how fast this year of marriage has gone by. and everyone says the first year is the hardest. it was smooth sailing for us 98% of the time. but if you take into consideration how long we have known each other (9 1/2 years) it isn't surprising. we also will be celebrating 9 years of couple-dom. we started dating august 2, 1997. madness. we were just kids. i don't think you are supposed to find your husband at 14. yeah, we went through a lot from 1997-2002 trying to decide what we wanted. but from 2002 on... almost perfection. and i hope i am not jinxing that by saying that.

i just feel very lucky and blessed to be so fortunate to have been able to grow up with the person i am going to grow old with. and as different as we can be sometimes, we are exactly the same.

i could blog all night to pass the time but i think i will go do pilates instead. i've been doing it the last couple of days (just the abs and buns portion, i do the abs diet circuit for my arms and legs) and i feel better about myself all ready. plus i want to wear a nice dress that i bought last summer and wore in hawaii but have since pudged out. i better get cracking...

love.
