A few odd things.

I think I've mentioned a few times on here that I broke our camera that we got for Christmas last year.  Well we sent the little guy off to Canon and it came back this week all fixed and (thank you Jesus) apparently the fix was free.  [If you're wondering what I did, I stuck the memory card in the wrong way, too aggressively].  So anyways, I put a few pictures we took with it prior to the break that make me very happy, below. 

After a quick discussion with a co-worker today about how I dream about work/other things and come up with my best ideas when my mind finally has a minute to rest, I came to realize that my mind never really does rest and I am thinking all the time (unless I'm sleeping, but then I'm dreaming so same thing right?..)

So, without further ado here are a few random things on my mind right now (you might think I'm really odd after all this):
  • I cannot wait for summer to come so I can wear sunglasses, find a cute romper like this, etc.
  • Traveling is making me really pudgy (or pudgier?).  I think I felt back fat yesterday, yeah I said it. I started getting back to my workout routine today.  I hope it sticks.
  • Sometimes I feel like a bad wife because I don't coupon.  Will someone teach me how? I don't feel like it would be worth my time.  But I'm currently watching extreme couponing and I'm wowed.
  • I really love my husband.  A lot.  I think he has the most incredible heart.
  • I want to learn to serve others better.  It's one of those things that takes effort, and after a long week full of busyness, it's hard to dedicate that time/effort.  But, oh how fulfilling and God glorifying it is. 
  • Talking on the phone is my weakness.  Weakness meaning I hate talking on the phone.  But, considering I live near almost no one I had a relationship with prior to 2.5 years ago, I really need to learn to start talking on the phone.
  • What does Jesus want me to be doing right now?  Tomorrow? 
  • I wonder if Charlie is running around the house right this very moment.  
  • I think I use parentheses ( ) and commas , too much.
  • All for now. If you're still following, see below for some pictures.

  1. I love seeing your thoughts spilled out like this, it's fun :). Excited to shoot some fun pics with you this weekend. Miss you!

    Here's what I'm thinking: why am I awake? Has anyone else tried to leave a comment on here via iPhone? Very difficult! I wonder if Brett is actually coming over at 7am for coffee? Highlander Grogg is my favorite coffee ever. Why am I awake? I'm warm. Charlie is sleeping. This is fun. I love you. Now I can't sleep. Maybe if I close my eyes? I want to move to Europe, permanently. Its windy out. I hear crickets. Is this interesting? Should i really post this? Is there such thing as posting remorse? I'll find out soon...

  2. just one of the reasons I love you! You are so entertaining :-) Crickets? Wasn't it windy last night? I would have thought you wouldn't have been able to hear them. You're so interesting babe, no posting remorse!

  3. Sheesh it was windy. Pretty sure our roof lifted off a couple of times.

    Btw - I love the pictures. Not kinda like them and want to e-Tell you they're awesome, but actually love the character they pull out of the situations.

    PS, I use so many parenthesis it's crazy. (It's OK)

  4. Ah Jason- thanks!! That means so much. I agree, there is definitely a story to tell behind each of the pictures.

    Yeah, I have been realing lately how I use parethenses at an incredible pace. I honestly have no idea if it drives people nuts or not (I hope not ;).

  5. hahaha, I loved this post! I am so terrible at communicating over the phone and the fact that you really aren't a phone person either only assists me. Maybe we can setup practice sessions...

    Brian -
    I CANNOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO COMMENT FROM MY IPHONE AND IT DRIVES ME CRAZY!!!

  6. Katy - Brian said it's really tough to comment from his phone and he doesn't recommend it.

    And, thank you :-) But I agree, maybe we can get better at phone dates?
