At Last




So I can’t believe that in less than 2 months will be our 1 year anniversary. It seems like just a couple of months ago that I was planning a wedding and walking down the aisle to marry my wonderful husband. When I walked down that aisle it was to Etta James “At Last” and that was how I truly felt. I didn’t want the traditional wedding march, I wanted to express everything that I was feeling to get to this point in my life. And now here we are almost one year later. Time really flew, which is so awesome because to me that just means that married life is suiting us just fine and that one I owe all to God. Right now I feel like so many things in my life are just such a blessing, especially my husband and wonderful marriage. It was a long road to get where we are today, and sometimes a rocky one and I just truly feel that the Lord led us to where we are today and that it was his will and plan all along. As high school sweethearts the odds were against us and still are, but we are more in love than ever and growing together everyday and that is how we plan to live out the rest of our lives….together.
At Last Lyrics by Etta James
At last, my love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song
Oh, yeah, at last
The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clovers
The night I looked at you
I found a dream that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to rest my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known
Oh, yeah when you smile, you smile
Oh, and then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine
At last

84 Degrees

So I am loving the weather. It's nice and bright and beautiful outside and I can roll down my window and feel the sunshine on my arm and it makes me want to go to the park and have a nice picnic with my husband and put our new kitty on a leash (because I'm sure she would love that....) and let her run around in the grass and have some good old fashioned kitty fun and be one happy little family. Now I know what you’re thinking, no cat would enjoy that... and you’re probably right. In some way my kitty has unfortunately become my substitute for a cute, sweet, and cuddly little baby because well… it’s simple really. I'm ready for a baby but shouldn't be and my hubby isn't ready because he is being the rational one in this whole situation. Which I guess one of has to be. I mean it’s not his fault I’ve been baby crazy now for about 3 years because it’s seems like every time I turn around one of my friends or my own mother for gosh sakes is having a baby. As Jenelle would say... “what the H!”

Anyhoo back to my point. Yes I love the weather but right now I am HATING it. Right now it is 84 degrees in my office. It’s hot and I feel sticky and my boss is well… let’s just call him frugal. I say it’s hot and he say’s “Well you’re not turning on the air so open the door.” Which I get I guess. I mean it is only March and seems too early to turn on the air but its 84 frick fracking degrees in here!! So me being the sneaky one that I am, I turn it on when he is gone. Except wouldn’t you know with my luck that all 6’ 9” of him comes walking through that door the moment I do it. I had to turn it off. So I am sitting here, hot with my eyelids drooping because it’s warm and it’s making me sleepy and my legs are sticking to my leather chair. But my boss just left so I let him know that if I fall asleep I can not be held responsible for my actions and that I hope he enjoys his nice cool air conditioning in his car. Now now… don’t be worried, we have that kind of relationship where he is a smart well you know and then I am one back. It’s great really. Anyways he just smiled and said he would and that maybe I should consider getting a fan and walked right on out. 1 point boss man 0 for Jessi.
