So much to say....

A lot has happened since I've done any real update on my blog.  I know most of you are unbelievably shocked at this because I usually post new blogs so FREQUENTLY:-)   One of my goals for the remainder of 2007 is to be better about making time to blog.  I always feel a sense of satisfaction when I take the time to process all the goings on in my life.  Turning 30 has proved to be quite the milestone for me.  My life couldn't possibly be any more different than it was when I was 29.  I have an entirely different job!  On Monday morning at 8:45 (too early!!) I begin my new adventures with Sprint/Nextel!!  So long AT&T, who should change their slogan to the network with the MOST dropped calls EVER!!!!  Hello brand new phone and free cell phone plan with Sprint - The Most Powerful Network!! :-)  I have new awesome friends (Corinne Davis!! Shantel), new roommates (welcome to my amazingly loving and beautiful pal Marie K!), a brand new mountain bike!! (thank you Amy and Ethan Pitsch, the best friends anyone could ever ask for!) two really awesome birthday parties - one with my friends and the other with my family, the closest relationships with my family that I have ever had up to this point in my life...




I've been to Chicago twice, to hang out with quite possibly the most amazing person I have ever met in my life - Drue Maureen!! I've been snorkeling and scallopping on my sisters brand new boat several times, which has given me a much needed tan and much needed and appreciated time with my family, not to mention the cutest nieces and nephews on the planet. :-)



I also spent two days in the hospital with some kind of lower abdominal issue, which gave me even   more time to draw near to my family. We are not a perfect family by any means, but we have been learning the value of truly loving and accepting each other at all costs.    This is a unique blessing, which I never thought I would be lucky enough to have, but am so thankful that God in His divine mercy has chosen to bless me with the myriad of family that He has and the myriad of people who "see everything of which I am ashamed..who see my light and love my dark," as Alanis Morisett would put it. :-) To be known and to be loved even still, this is a mere glimpse of the heaven that is to come.
