Please explain

Why is it that the people we love the most drive us crazy sometimes?

I had to pray my way out of bed this morning. It worked, and I've had a great day, but dang if those first five minutes weren't AWFUL.

I don't really miss the computer. It's been good for me to have some time away from mindless internet surfing. My house is slowly but surely getting more organized and cleaner (did I mention the slowly part?). My marriage is still strong.

And I need to get up the guts to tell Josh that his working at home is driving me crazy. Or I could just put on my happy face and tough it out for another five weeks until school starts again. Hmmm . . . . I just don't want to make him sad. He's having a hard enough time readjusting to normal life, I can't bear to think that I might make things harder for him. It's been three weeks, but the Air Force has left its mark on my husband, for better or for worse.

And on that cheerful note, I'm going to bed! Hopefully my kids will sleep well, although they both went to bed around 9 p.m. and I don't have high expectations. By the way, thanks for the pie, Amy!

emily, if you need a computer or just want a computer to use for a while come over any time. We're just across the stairwell as I'm sure you're reminded of far too often. :)

Hah! Thanks, Natalie. We still have two laptops, although now one is really just a glorified DVD player.

You're welcome. Thanks for coming over on Saturday. It was fun to see you guys and your cute boys :)

I keep telling myself that sometime in the future I may not get all this "wonderful" time with my husband... and telling myself that only works sometimes, but other times...! lol I totally understand! Last week I finally grabbed a book and dove in! It was fun and a whole different world! I wish I could read as fast as you do!
