***OK, I WAS WRONG IN MY LAST POST WHEN I WROTE ABOUT HOW WE VISITED MOM AND DAD CUZ WE WERE WORRIED ABOUT THEM AFTER THEIR HOUSE GOT BURGLARIZED. THAT HAPPENED LATER. WE MUST'VE VISITED "JUST BECAUSE" THAT TIME. 10/2 WAS THE DAY THEY GOT ROBBED. JORDAN CALLED YOU WHILE YOU ME AND KEILA WERE STUDYING AT PANERA. AFTER YOU GOT OFF THE PHONE, YOU PAUSED FOR A SECOND, LOOKED AT ME, AND SAID "MOM, DAD, AND TAPIN ARE OK." I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO THINK THEN YOU STARTED PACKING UP OUR STUFF AND TOLD ME WHAT HAPPENED. WITHOUT HESITATION, YOU DROPPED EVERYTHING YOU WERE IN THE MIDDLE OF AND WE WENT TO VALLEJO. THE DRIVE THERE WAS HORRIBLE! I CRIED LIKE A BABY AND YOU CONSOLED ME. I DON'T KNOW HOW I WILL EVER GET THRU TIMES LIKE THAT WITHOUT YOU... YOU ALWAYS KEPT IT TOGETHER IN STRESSFUL TIMES LIKE THAT. THAT'S WHAT ATE LANE MEANT BY "QUIET STRENGTH."

I'm an imperfect christian woman. I'm going thru stuff I can't even find the words for. I shouldn't be expected to cope one way or another.

Going to the store and seeing Valentines Day stuff all over is depressing! Can it be February first????

***IT BEING FEBRUARY DIDN'T MAKE IT ANY EASIER...SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE CERTAIN RADIO STATIONS, TV CHANNELS, AND STORES ARE NOTIFIED WHEN I'M THERE AND AUTOMATICALLY GO INTO MUSY-LOVEY-DOVEY MODE!
I left home to avoid watching One Tree Hill. Mark & I talked about the wedding for months. I got home & realized I DVRd it. What a mess. :(

***YOU WERE RIGHT. THE WEDDING HAPPENED AND THERE WAS NO CRAZY SITUATION THAT LEFT SOMEONE INJURED OR DEAD OR MISSING LIKE I THOUGHT. THE VOWS WERE ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL AND HAD ME CRYING LIKE A BABY...AGAIN! BLAH, BLAH, BLAH. LOL

***I'M EXCITED AND BUMMED AT THE SAME TIME. WEDNESDAYS ARE THE BEST DAYS FOR ME TO MEET WITH MY MENTOR, BUT WON'T WORK FOR HER. NEITHER WILL TUESDAY NIGHTS OR DAYLIGHT HOURS. WE HAD OUR FIRST MEETING SCHEDULED FOR THURSDAY, BUT SHE HAD TO RESCHEDULE. I'M NOT AT ALL DISAPPOINTED IN HER. I'M GENUINELY EXCITED AND LOOKING FORWARD TO HER MENTORSHIP! BUT LOOKS LIKE SCHEDULING IS GONNA BE TOUGH:(.
I just saw a billboard that said The Lord is coming May 21st! I'm so excited to see my babee!!! LoL
