Perfectly Happy but I still need therapy!

I am perfectly happy with the way my life has turned out. God had an awesome plan for my life (and still does). It could not have turned out more perfectly. I am married to the man I feel like God made just for me. I don't think we could have had the relationship we have today if we had met and married earlier in our life. I am thankful for the timing of everything and the way things have turned out. We are who we are because of our past. I would not change anything and neither would MSH. It's cool because we are totally insynic with each other. I would say that we think the same...but that's not true...Dan thinks way better and way more funnier that I do!

There is no sense in us beating our selves up over the past. It can't be changed. We just have to learn from it. That's why MSH and I have such a great relationship now.
Please pray for sweet Alli. She has had a tough week. She fell and broke her leg and then had to have surgery on it. She can't do anything for herself. Also pray for her Mom and Grandmother who are taking care of her.

Also please pray for CDM1. He is in the process of trying to buy his first house. He has done the research and feels like this is the time for him to jump into the arena of "Home Ownership". I am really proud of him.

Now for all the work that MSH has been doing around the house....oh my, he works non-stop. This week his major project has been to re-build the back fence (along with the work he had to do at the Holly House). Our fence was falling down. Now it is starting to look really good. This weekend we have to get our plywood for the windows bought and cut. Yes, my friends it's that time of the year again. We could have a system in the Gulf in just a few days.

I think I need to go to "Yarn Buyers Anonymous" or get into some kind of therapy. There has to be some support group out there that can help me. Actually my Oriental Sister needs to go with me. She has an addiction as bad as I do. I think we enable each other. Today I was at work and she was driving home from lunch with friends and she "thought" there was a Hobby Lobby on Fairmont in Pasadena. (it's sad that we have to hit stores not in our area) I told her that she must have thought that because a few weeks ago, I "thought" there was one there and I drove up and down for about 5 miles and could not find it, so I (being the smart woman that I am) went home. I offered to look on the Internet and see if there was a Hobby Lobby in the area...and there was just a few miles away. But on a different street. I wished her good luck and we hung up. Later I get a phone call and she has found a great sale on our favorite yard. The conversation goes like this...

She said: The have the yard for 99 cents, do you want some?
I said: Yes
She said: They have the brown twist, how many do you want?
I said: Five
She said: They have twelve, I am buying all of them. The have the pink twist, do you want some?
I said: Sure, how many do they have?
She said: I am buying all of them. They have that blue...
I said: I am not sure which one that is...
She said: I am buying all of them.
I said: Ok, we will divide all of them up tomorrow at work
She: Ok, see ya!

A few months ago we were together at a conference in a different state and while everyone went to happy hour, we did what we love to be best...go to the local Hobby Lobby! We found a great sale and bought tons of yarn! We went back to the hotel and showed everyone and I am sure they thought we were crazy. We are crazy...CRAZY ABOUT GETTING OUR FAVORITE YARN ON SALE!!
