Some light things, some not-so-light things...

1. went for a 2 mile walk at lunch today. that was refreshing. b/c i worked out at lunch i got home early tonight. so now i have time to fix a meatloaf - one of our new favorite meals.
2. drove brutus (dave's jeep) to work today so he could drive my car & check it out...anyways, i am really proud of myself for driving his stick shift jeep all by myself in rush hour traffic. i usually will only drive it out in the country or something where no one will see me stall the engine. *lol* but i faced my fears and did it today. i didn't have one single mess up. YES!
3. Dave got home tonight about 8:30 after working on my car all evening. turns out there was a small boulder wedged between my transmission and subframe. somehow the thing bounced up under there and managed to not total my already totalled car...he also fixed 3 different clunking noises for me. (one of which has been bothering us for 4 years) YES!
4. Found out tonight that justice was finally served at my former workplace. So glad to hear that things can't be corrupt forever.
5. I was totally blessed this afternoon when i was surfing the web and checked bethany's site. see her post here, the third paragraph: http://www.xanga.com/yoyoyoder and this is why i feel blessed....

• Sometimes I really, really, really want to be a mom too. I always thought growing up that I would have a baby by the time I was 25. I figured when I married David at the age of 20 that I was well on my way of reaching my goal. But certain things have happened that have delayed that dream and sometimes I get really frustrated and start wishing all this time away. David pretty much tells me everything that Bethany said - how I just need to be thankful for this time and work on myself so that I can be the best mom possible when that time comes but that's hard to focus on and I don't always follow David's advice (I guess I'm stubborn...and I start resenting it instead), so anyhow, it just helped me to read Bethany's post, hear that good advice from someone else, and refocus my thoughts to something a little more positive. (Of course inside I'm still having an immature battle saying that it's just not fair!!!!!!!!!!!!....hhhhhh....)
