I've been going to the gym every Monday, Wednesday, & Friday for two weeks now. Today was the first day I haven't gone, and I actually kinda sorta 2% missed it!!!! I don't know why though... last week I actually gained 3 lbs... grrrrr... nevermind. I didn't miss it. I'm boycotting.
On a happier note, Mom & Dad are visiting us!!! And they actually have their very own bedroom & bathroom!!! YAY!!!

New Look
Hello everyone :)
I was inspired by Erin... what do you think of the new look? Does anyone know how to use a downloaded font? I found a super cute (and free) one called "MA Fishy", but I can't make it work... any suggestions for that, or anything else to add to my page?
*muah*

Happy Birthday, Dad!
Today, the 2nd of February, is my Dad's birthday.
The other day at Memaw's house, I ran across a box of old pictures. It was a true treasure trove of memorabilia... some of my brother & me, my parents, TONS of pictures of my grandparents from the 20's-40's, plus some dating way back to the late 1800's-early 1900's, & even a couple of old lithograph tiles of my great grandparents.
Especially since I have never seen a single baby picture of my dad, I was ecstatic.
Anyway, Happy Birthday, Dad! I love you!

Squishy
Today, I got to have lunch with a friend I haven't seen in about two years. We used to work together, & then she moved out of state, but she's recently moved back to town.
The last time I saw her, her son was in daycare, & she lived next door to her mother in law, so I thought I was safe. No such luck- she's now a stay at home mom, so four year old Jaiden came to lunch with us. Boy was I ecstatic.
Of course, he instantly became my "best fwiend", and wanted to sit by me. As kids go, he was pretty intelligent, fairly polite, and a very talkative & personalitied little thing.
Around the time Sarah was telling me "ugh, I've GOT to go to the gym today... I can barely fit into my size 3 jeans today!", Jaiden gave me a biiiiiiig hug, and proclaimed loudly enough for our waiter & all the surrounding tables to hear,
"WOW!!! You're really SQUISHY!!!"
He then proceeds to poke me everywhere, to see just how squishy I am... ("your ARMS are squishy... and your LEGS are REALLY squishy!", etc.)

Things I've Learned
1) Two people run through things like toothpaste & soap a LOT more quickly than just one.
2) James runs in his sleep. It's cute.
3) It's nice to be rescued from the middle of a bad dream.
4) I always figured that once I got married, I'd trade in my necessary 47 pillows and a stuffed animal or few for my husband. Especially given what a hugger I am, I always figured I'd be a big sleep cuddler. I am not- cuddling is great & required and all, but when it's time to go to sleep, I need my space. And I still need my bears. James is very understanding.
Happy one monthaversary to my sweet husband :)
ps: when I woke up this morning, there were a dozen red roses on the dresser... i think he likes me :)

why does the urge to write always strike at the most random times?
Yah, like at 2am on a church night...
I think I've been avoiding my blog lately because I know that the task that lays before me is such a daunting one. I've got a New York trip, a wedding, a honeymoon, and almost an entire month of marriage to chronicle for you! I'll start small...
I love visiting home... I only let myself do things like take a 3 hour nap, then wake up only to lay around on my fat happy & read an entire book when I'm here.
