The last few weeks, I have been having a hard time not being in school. If it makes any sense, I prefer to be behind a computer screen, my hand with a pen and notebook beneath it, and my nose in a book. I like school. I am good at it. I miss it so very much.
It is making it hard for me to focus at work and remember that in August, I will be back in the classroom, in my first semester of grad school. I can’t wait.
Tonight, I needed a relaxed night. I needed to decompress, and just hang out with Alan and sweet Shelby. And that’s exactly what I got. I made a batch of my mother’s biscuits, and Alan made Mexican Hot Chocolate. We sat on the couch and ate and drank (the healthiest meal ever, yessir!), I wrestled with Shelby for awhile, and tossed a ball around the house for a bit because it is way too cold to play outside, and then laid down with him as Alan watched the news. Have I mentioned how my sweet Shelby dog loves to lay with me on the floor while I spoon with him. It is absolutely precious. I adore this dog!
Later, Alan and I both nosed around blogs (me) and StockMarket sites (Alan) while in our pajamas on the couch together. I read through my cousin Kate’s blog and read up on her beautiful family’s life. It got me so excited to see what my future with Alan holds. I cannot wait to be married to him, to have a child someday, to have a child who gets to wrestle with sweet Shelby, and then collapses out of exhaustion on the floor together.
There is so much good ahead. I cannot wait. Forever is going to be so amazing with Alan by my side.
