Day 31 I have been frustrated a lot lately, it seems. I did think that it was just because there was so much going on in our lives and too many things up in the air at once. I was listening to a Jack Johnson song tonight and one line said, "Cause this moment keeps on moving... We were never meant to hold on." Maybe I am too prone to hold on to the comfort of 'today' and not cling the the hope of 'tomorrow.' I don't think we talk often enough in the Church of the pain in hope; the pain in faith. He has provided in the past and will again, but somehow it all feels the same. Maybe that is just a deficiency on my part though... probably. Hope you rocked the 'real' interview! (Note for anyone elese: there is a quasi-worthwhile reason the house looked like this!!)

Day 23 Today I have been thinking a lot about contrasts and parallels. Change is prominent on lips today it seems, but I am not sure I like recent changes. We may ask for it before, but when it comes, especially unexpectedly, rarely is there a line to welcome it; I know I didn't. In the end, it will work out I am sure. Contrasts and parallels. This picture, recent political stuff, and recent life events made me think of that.

Day 25 Alright, so here is my first attempt at an HDR image (not sure it came out so well). I am all about being open to new things as of late and I owed you a pic of my re-arranged corner anyways.

Day 21 What can I say. I am on a marker kick.

Day 19 Some days it is thick and some days it is thin. Today was just the right ambivalent balance. At least for three fourths of it.

Day 18 Alright, everyone loves combo deals. Confessions probably require divulging unknown stuff, but you already know this. I have a memory problem of sorts. I know that white socks are never something that you wear with brown pants and birkenstocks, but I didn't have anything else clean. Keep forgetting to do the laundry. I should not be allowed to cook alone. Multiple times now I have forgotten about something on the stove until it is close to the breaking point of edible and inedible. Thanks for always helping me successfully survive life. It is probably easier when you are actually around, but that's alright.

Day 17 Figured I would put this one up earlier... I don't mind to vocab, but is more the idea of the whole thing I think. At least it has been nice out.

Day 16
It has been so nice out lately. This is from the park that I was telling you about. I would say we should go there, but it will be pretty chilly soon and may not warm up by the time we be up and outta here! We can still go.

Day 14 Yes, Franzia, I do believe you are know for your Old World Classics! I remember the first day my dad brought home wine that came in a bottle. It was called 'Fire Truck Red.' I didn't even know wine came in bottles! In an instant my world burst forth with endless, glorious possibility. You are my life's 'bottle of wine.'

Day 13 More times than not, it really 'cannot be determined from the information given.' Often I think that is intentional. It forces the outstretched hand, and I am glad that you are always there to hold the other one. Funny. Today seemed to be so much less funky than yesterday.

Day 26 "Cause it seems your heart is a part of mine I’ve sorted through every word I know to use And looked for beauty to define I haven’t found what I want to say to you But I’ll try for the rest of my life Lets try for the rest of our lives" - If I Ever, Alli Rogers
