It was a present given to me from mom and dad right after they moved to Northern Cali. I think they gave me the lap top as a bribe to make me feel better for them leaving me in southern cali. :)
The journeys that lap top took with me were numerous...many vacations, many late nights completing grad school and credential classes, countless job applications and music downloads, endless amounts of pictures downloaded to it (I think causing it to crash 2x), more bills paid on it than I could ever count, the journey of moving from Cali to AZ and then half way across country with Ben to KS, the beginning of my blogging adventures and sooo much more! Good bye my long and trusted friend I will miss you!
On another note, I had a great day today! I went to the Dr today for lab work, and found out that my A1C was 6.4 last year and today it was only 5.3, which is great news for me! It means that I am no longer pre-diabetic and I am down a few more pounds! Yeah me! :) I then decided to treat myself to coffee, walked 2 miles with Lynne & baby Brian, ate lunch with friends, got mani/pedi and was naughty and indulged in some new stuff from bath and body works and from JcPenneys.
Today just reaffirms my appreciation for the life that God has given me and for the wonderful people that have been placed in my life. I am grateful beyond belief for the friends and family that I have. Yesterday was one of those days that I was feeling a little blue about not having a bambino of my own, and then today He blesses me with a day completely full of great company and a sweet little boy that I got to love on all day (when originally we had just planned for a few hours)!
Although my heart may ache at times, days like today remind me that God hears all of my wants and desires and that they will happen in His time and not mine...but in the mean time He will continually fill me up with an amazing abundance of love and support from amazing people!
