It has been a long time.

Since getting Viola, the major event has been David going to Tokyo, Japan for a year of school. We've been chatting every day online. He sends me pictures of Tokyo, his food, his friends, and himself. He is doing good and wants to say hi to everyone.

I've been weeding out unimportant habits / hobbies from my life since he's been gone. Trying to work on myself while I am alone so I will be a better wife once he gets back. One thing I have eliminated is almost all computer games. It has freed up some time and I am happier with one less thing to think about.

I hope all is well with my friends, family, and online buddies and I apologize for not reading many blogs over the last year or so. Life is getting less and less chaotic and I hope to return to reading blogs in the near future. I really enjoy reading about your lives and I miss the excitement of seeing a new post.

I love... (part 14)

I love how I felt yesterday when I received a gift ticket to see WICKED.
I love how much fun I had at the special Valentine's Dinner from Saturday night.
I love my husband and how much time we spent together last weekend.

I love... (part 11)

I love the number 2 (and even painted a picture with that theme).
I love browsing books in bookstores or online.
I love mindless puzzle video/computer games.

2010 Already?

So I haven't posted much. I thought I would post more over break but I haven't been doing that. I am enjoying break more than ever before. I sit around... read... play video games... hang out with husband... It has been fantastic!
Here is a melting pot of thoughts from the past few weeks.

Resolutions:

• Lose "the weight" by the deadline of September 1st, then begin on 2nd half of goal weight.
• Finish Master's degree.
• Read the entire Bible at least once.
• Read over 75 books (repeat resolution).

Fun and Time-Sucking PS3 Video Games:

• Civilization Revolution
  
• Eden
• Wheel of Fortune
  
• Braid

Random Thoughts:

• New Moon was good enough to see twice in the theater but the story line is still my least favorite of the four Twilight Saga books.
• Still don't like doing housework.
• Sore throats are a bummer.
• South Beach Diet is the only diet that works for me (and holidays).
• iTunes giftcards do not suck.
• Family Game Nights are still the best.
• I still LOVE my LG Dare cellphone- even after a year.

Well, that's about it right now. I might add some to this post as I think of items.
