Lately

I'm sitting here while three people clean the house around me. Someone cleaning the bathroom counters 20 feet away, someone vacuuming in the living room and I can hear the stove being taken apart getting all of the splatters from our yummy chicken tacos last night. I figured now was as good of time as any to update my blog. I have a rough life, I know.

Jill is coming to visit on Thursday for the Austin City Limits Music Festival. I am very excited. I haven't seen her since this summer when we were home for Jenn's wedding and then she was busy with Bridesmaid things. So it will be nice to have some time with her.

Last weekend I went to Christian's nephew's flag football game. Fifteen feet away from me was Max. It was surreal. I've never lost someone super close to me, but when the kids were taken from me it felt like a death. I never saw them or heard from them. I only had pictures that were frozen in time. Seeing Max was like seeing someone come back to life. He was taller and his hair was longer but he was the same kid. It was strange. I kept my mouth shut. I didn't know what to do. He looked at me, but I don't think he really saw me. It was nice to have C to talk it all out with. She gets it.

Other than that, not too much happening. I'm loving my life. It's been a long time since i've had that feeling. And Wednesday marks a year of greatness. Not being a fan of surprises i'm a little anxious about what is planned, but as long as i'm with Christian, i'll be happy.

Yup, i'm sappy. That's what happens.
