Epic. Fail.
I failed my challenge. I did not blog every day in 2011. I made it over 250 days and then I fell of the band wagon. I'm a loser. Work has been so busy that I have had little time for anything extra and unfortunately blogging was one of the first things to go. I am going to "back post" and get caught up, but after December 31, 2011 I will no longer vow to post daily. Sorry friends.

Slacker.
I'm a slacker. This blog has been the least of my concerns lately. I've been working and working and working some more. I LOVE it, but it's exhausting!!! :)
I will get better and I will have LOTS and LOTS to share!

Journal
I have yet to pick up my journal to write it in since that dreadful day in 2010. It even pains me just to read it. I started this journal in January of 2006 - just 2 weeks before Alex and I met. I don't remember life before him, so when I say my entire life is in this journal it's really what I mean. I picked it up to read it tonight . . . I've been looking though stuff to take to my classroom and I came across it tonight. I wasn't able to read more than 50 words before I was sitting on the floor of my office, with a tear rolling down my cheek. I had to put it away- I just had to. As I went to put it back on the shelf a piece of paper fell out. Now mind you, I NEVER share this journal or it's entries with ANYBODY, but I thought maybe I would start. Besides what's a blog for... ? To release it all, right?

"I want to be everything to my husband. I always want him to look at me with the love in his eyes like he did at the very beginning. I want him to feel that I am the most wonderful, awe inspiring woman on the planet and if that ever stops it will be it for us and it will be the worst feeling in the world."

It's NO secret that my phone is 3 years old and a piece of crap. I have been anxiously awaiting the iPhone 5 for almost a year now. So sad to hear that there is NO iPhone 5, but rather an iPhone 4s. I guess that's what I'll be getting and I cannot.freaking. wait!!
