Quiet Evenings

Filed under: Life — gardener @ 2:11 pm

Marcel is working this evening- so that means after a busy day- that I actually have the evening to myself. I know- some people think it’s horrible to actually relish in the alone time- but truth is- I need it. Without it- I would probably be impossible to live with.

Since Marcel hasn’t been doing great- the doctors actually have him working half days now- so he’ll be home at 2 a.m.- long after I’m in bed (or that’s the plan, anyway). I spend some time working outside today- after doing my ‘paid’ job- so I’m ready to take a cool bath and curl up with some mindless television.

First- I’ll give mom a call. I talk to them daily- and I wouldn’t have it any other way. There will come a day when that luxury isn’t available, but for now, I’m cherishing every moment.

It’s Beginning to Look….

Someone posted on Facebook earlier today exactly how many days it was until Christmas. I found myself groaning a little, not so much because Christmas isn’t ‘that’ far away, but because people are starting to post x days til Christmas. With that being said- I will admit that I’ve already started thinking about Christmas and have opened my passworded gift app- and started adding gift ideas, links on where to pick up things- and prices. It’s the best app ever for gift buying. It keeps everything all tied up in a neat little bow, which I love.

Marcel has expressed wanting a pair of the new beats, and while I personally think the pair he has is perfectly fine, I know that it’s one of those little things that would make him happy. He is constantly listening to music with his current pair, and I know an updated version would sound even better. So- it’s on the list. Along with a new pair of shoes- and the Abercrombie training pants he’s been eyeing for a few months now. That’s all so far- but I know the list will expand as the days pass and inspiration strikes.

The Garden of Life

Filed under: Food for Thought — gardener @ 2:02 pm

Life has been buzzing along here at a great rate of speed. There have been so many great things happening, that often- I don’t take the time to turn on the computer and pound it all out on the keyboard to post here (although, I definitely should). I reminded myself a little earlier that I ‘do’ indeed have a WordPress app, and that I should probably be using it- as it would make life much easier to type out a few words and share a few thoughts, for the times that I don’t get on the computer. I’ll just have to remember that.

Work has been really good- and continues to get better. I’m grateful beyond measure, and I find myself feeling inspired. So much has happened, and through all the struggles we’ve dealt with over the last year and a half- there have been so many wonderful lessons- and I’m filled with joy- abundant joy- Does it mean life is perfect? Nah- that is a word that shouldn’t be in the dictionary- but this life is ours- it’s fantastic, including the struggles along the way- they serve to teach, and I’m always a willing vessel to learn. After all- that’s what we are here for.
