Joyful, Joyful

Life is weird sometimes, I think. Don't really know how to explain. Things have changed so much. I know it's meant to be a good thing. Really weird though. Who would have ever guessed even just five years ago that I would be married and living in Fargo, North Dakota? Seriously? My life plan was so much different. No dating in high school. Maybe one or two dates or so in college. Get into "the real world" and build up my career for a few years before ever seriously consider getting to know someone. A long engagement and finally marriage. A few years after that, children may become an option, but I figured I'd probably still be too spoiled to want anyone else in my life getting that much attention. Now, I'm 1234 miles from what I've known as home, living with this crazy man who's been my best friend for years, wondering what else will become out of whack. My mom, little brother and sisters are in Colorado visiting my more-family. I'm somewhat jealous. I must admit that sometimes, I just get so sick of being up here. It's pretty nice weather-wise now. I have some really good friendships (I think) breaking out. That makes it so much more dealable. We really have a great place to live and decent jobs and whatnot... But it's so hard. I'm the type of person that gets overly-attached and it's been about the hardest thing ever not to be able to bug my family almost everyday. We still call each other sometimes, but it's totally different. I know...I know... My family is now with Yost. Well, it is...but it's not in the same way. Oh yeah, I just got home from Knitting Night, which I look forward to every week. I've started on a new project: a mini-sweater. I think it will turn out very nicely. We'll see. The first six or so inches with be easy-ness that I've been doing all along, but then comes the different harder type things. Ugh. Just so you know, I absolutely adore the song "You Led Me" by Barlow Girls. Yea. I'm listening to yet another compilation of my favorite songs, some of which are: I Wonder What God Was Thinking, Joyful, Joyful, Brave, What If, Go Light Your World, Sunrise, Sunset, and This is the Night...Okay, fine then...I also have the Fox and the Hound song on here. I can't help it. That movie is absolutely amazing... It gets to me everytime. Such a great moral and such good characters... One last comment before I go and bug my husband (who I came home to spend time with and all he wants to do is play video games...sad...oh well, I'll start reading my new investing book): Thank you Isaac Daniel for commenting on my blog. That's what made me write more (because I figured someone might actually read this one). God loves you and so do I. ~K
