Great Day in my Life

Today a wonderful thing happened. I was told that we will get to adopt our daughters! Two years ago this week was when all of this started. They told us it would take 6 months at that time. We actually believed them. LOL. Was it worth it? Absolutely.
Everything seems brighter today - food tastes better, the sunset seemed more spectacular, I look at my husband and love him all the more, I look at my children and know that I will never have to worry about them being taken away, abused and neglected ever again. I have a feeling that I will sleep better tonight than I have in quite some time. The 2 year old awful feeling in the pit of my stomach is completly gone.
God is good AAAAALLLLLLL the time, and HIS timing is perfect. Thank you God for teaching me that, even if it was the hard way.
Life is really good. So much for the crappy depression of last week!

Where does the time go?

Wow, it's June already. The days are steadily getting hotter and my fuse gets shorter as the temp rises. I extremely dislike the heat. I need a vacation. I would love to be up in the Colorado Rockies right now. I love Estes Park, Co. in the summer. It is so cool that you need a jacket and it smells so clean when you get that high up in the mountains. Makes you want to yodel... ;)

My oldest two daughters are at church camp [insert the hallelujah chorus here] and we have had a relativly quiet week. It is amazing how getting the two teenage girls out of the house will completly change the dynamic of the house. Sara is sleeping in Rik and Ambers room (which will totally tick them off - muuhahahahahha) and it is so much more QUIET in this house. But we sure do miss them. I cannot wait to pick them up tomorrow! I am sure I will hear the unfolding drama of the week. Who likes who - who's "going" with who, etc. What does that mean anyway? Where are they going? NOWHERE. I "went" with quite a few boys whe I was their age - Bodie, Brian, Larry, Russ, Larry (again) and it was not until I was a sophomore that I actually went anywhere with a boy. Actually, That second time around with Larry, he had his Mom's car and we would go to Lake Overholser. oooooooohhhhhhh.
Whoa - I was out on another rant just now. Talk me down, man - TALK ME DOWN!

My husband is driving me crazy. He keeps interupting me! This is me "writing and being hateful" Eddie!
Only he will get that.

I miss Tulsa. I miss the metropolitan feel of it. People are just different there. Can life be so different only 100 miles away from here? I miss my Mom. She's been gone 9 months now, and I still feel as if I can just call her up.
I miss singing every Sunday in the band - I never should have taken a month off. Now I cannot get back in. I've been black-balled. It's just as well, I think I am too controversial for them anyway. Geez, it's not like I am Kelly freaking Osborne. Why, I ask you, do people think that every time the church doors are open you HAVE to be there?

I am going through all of this change and I HATE CHANGE. My husband and I have been in a constant state of transition for almost 2 years now...

I guess I am depressed.
