My Naked Finger

My left ring finger is embarrassed. It has lost it's clothes and is naked.

My wedding band is missing. It's been missing for awhile and I 'm sad. I feel naked without it. My ring finger feels lighter. I want it back. I've been tearing my house apart looking for it, and I look in places I think it might be, and it's not there.

I want people to know I'm married. I'm proud of my husband. I want people to know A.'s parents are happily married.

I wonder where it rolled off too. My finger is tired of being naked. And I am too.

I'm Alive

I am alive. My blog however is apparently not. It is Easter Season, maybe a good time to resurrect it. I 'm sure who ever is reading this does not care to hear about what a slacker I am because being my last post was in December, it's quite apparent. I am a slacker.

Well, I guess updates is what I should give. All is well. A. is 2 now and is just the most amazing little person I've ever met. Her new word is Radiant. We were at the park yesterday and she told her little friend that she had Radiant hair. On top of being one of the smartest kids I know and cutest we have reached 2 which means the most amazing temper tantrums. That kid can scream. This morning as she screamed at me because, can you believe I wanted her to eat her eggs- I was like to I need to enroll her in an anger management class. Instead my husband and I exchange pleading glances across the breakfast table and wonder when Linda Blair took over our cherub's body. But alas, smiling A. returns for a while....

Husband is doing well. As I've mentioned 2006 was pretty much a year of misery, 2007 started out a little shaky, but things are looking up. After a year of job searching darling husband as found a new job with a nice salary. My only hope is that it's what he wants to do and the he finds peace and solace and will grow. Our relationship the past year has defiantly been challenged to no ends but we are finally on the right track realizing that we do indeed love each other. We've changed a lot and we're dating again and learning who these new people are. And it's nice to know that we still have a lot in common and these new people are still deeply in love.

On other fronts, because life is full of surprises we are expecting a new little cherub in August. A.'s world is about to change. It's no longer going to revolve around her and I think that's going to be an earthquake. J. and I are very excited. So far all is going well, but the fear is still there. As any parent we want a healthy child, and hope all stays course.

Well, I've wasted enough time. Hopefully I'll stop being a slacker...
