this is my blog

most people know i have no reservations stating my issues with life. that is why on days like today i like to blog. to make public notice of the hapiness in my life. i have been reminded the last couple of days of many things in my life that make me happy.

it is such a unique time for jeff and i. we both have jobs we like and that challenge us. we have tied the knot (in our own way). we have moved into a house (with out having a mortgage). and we are trying settling our debt. i feel like things are just really getting started with our life together.

we are pretty good about not taking times like these for granted but are very human. i wake up every morning in our new house and wonder when it will be before it is common place. it is such a fun time to notice something new each day in the house.

it is also a joy to do yard work and finally get back to cantainer gardening (i put my 30 plus plants up for adoption when i left austin). i hope to get out to the farmers market this weekend and stock up on herbs. we are planning a house warming party in two weekends and i want the deck to look great.

anyway, these small details are a real joy in my life now and i hope i can continue to find these small joys not only in this house but also in life.
