Sweet NIbbletts, I found an old Diary!!

In preparation of my upcoming move I am deep cleaning my apt. Tonight I found a journal that I started in 1998!! (ack how am I that old??!!) and at the back of it was a lovely list of important standards that I felt my future husband should adhere to. So I'm copying word for awkward word, what I wrote back then.

1.  A solid walk with God.   Well we start off well at least!
2. A love of children.
3. Music lover, but not opera or metal!
4. Must be sensitive and be able to cry.
5. Must have short nails.  Pet Peeve, I still can't deal with men having any whites on their nails.
6. Has to wear decent clothes to church (i.e. no jeans)  Ohhh how the mighty have fallen..
7. Has to have a steady job. One would think this would be oh, maybe #3??
8. Has to have an active part and interest in church.
9. Can't have slicked back, greased up hair.
10. Good table manners.
11. Must be cute (to me) and half an inch taller (at least!)
12. Cannot snore!
13. Has to have a good personality.
14. Short hair! (no chin length cuts for my man!)
15. A GREAT sense of humor.
16. Has to put up with my weird spells.
17. Has to be as weird and crazy as me! (no normal, boring guys need apply!) Not sure this is possible?!
18. Can't wear too tight, or too baggy jeans! Ye-Uck!
19. Clean shaven, no goatee, or mustache or beard or anything.  This has changed. Partially since I had to put up with a full beard for 4 months with the last dude.
20. Tender yet tough.
21. A late sleeper.  Clearly I have my priorities in order!
22. A Basketball fan.  Can you tell I'm a Hoosier?
23. Someone who will sing to me.  We Kiss in the Shadows? Anyone?
24. Someone who will protect me.

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...

9/52

So I'm doing my best to get these weekly wrap up's done on Monday each week. Today has been a DOOZY. It's 9 pm and I am just now sitting down to check email and such. So if this post isn't the most well written, you'll understand once you read next week's wrap up about today!  In happier news we started off last week with my BIIIIRRRTTHHHDAAAYYYYY!!! And nothing says your Birthday like watching One Tree Hill and eating a piece of ice cream cake with lunch. Spoiler alert, I had a piece of Ice Cream cake every single day last week.  The chalkboard was updated, but sadly none of my pictures with said chalkboard looked decent.  I rocked my Be-You-Tiful shirt and a new necklace my Mom had given me.  And then I had a little photo session in the piano room with my balloons. Because, it was my birthday. and I was alone. So why not!  This is pretty much me in a nutshell... :)  Normally, I try to get work done before students arrive...
