I last wrote in January. I was frustrated with a "process". That process was buying a house. It was a long process and it wasn't until April that we ended up buying a house.
That is what the first half of this year was all about: Finding a house.
We did. Then we went on vacation.Then did some work on the fence. Then I went to summer camp for a week. Then we got a dog. Then I went back to summer camp for another week. Then I came home for a couple days. Then it was time for VBS. During VBS I was offered a new job at the church. Then I got the new job. Then we started remodeling our basement.
That has been our year in four lines. That has been our year in 75 words or less. Yes, there were other things that happened, but if you asked me to give a summary of 2013 thus far, that would be it.
So here I am, with a couple minutes to spare before a band rehearsal to say "Yes, I am still here. Yes, I am still writing. And, yes, life is still moving faster than a NASCAR race."
...Did I just use a NASCAR reference? Good grief. That would be the influence of my husband. Not living in the South, but my husband. I don't even like NASCAR, just watch for the wrecks.
But thats neither here nor there.
I, however, am here.
And, I will be here more often. I have a lot to say. I have a lot that I learned this year and I am excited to share it.
