Catching Up

It's been a while since I've blogged. I'd love to say that I've been terribly busy, but that's just not true. I just haven't had a great deal that's news-worthy. But, for the sake of playing catch-up, I will elaborate a bit on the goings-on in my life.

Matt's aunt and uncle were in town for a couple of weeks, so we took advantage of the opportunity to spend time with them whenever our schedules permitted. I really enjoyed getting to know them better, and consider them my family, as well. We went over to Siesta Key and had dinner with them one evening, and it was terrific fun. I really love winter in Florida. With the exception of the last two days, it's constantly warm. It makes me happy.

Something making me not-so-happy is my work schedule. Well, that's not entirely true. I do like the mornings that I get to stay at home, but I hadn't factored in the fact that I would miss one of my favorite TV shows when I volunteered to work nights. Oh, well.

My job is about the same as it has been. Except I have no staff in my department now. Stinking recession and budget cuts. Nothing to do, except grin and bear it, I suppose.

I've been doing some preparation lately. Those who are close to me know how important this Saturday is. I will elaborate more later, but for now am keeping this private. I will simply cryptically state that I am hoping things will be different for me in the near future.

My marriage is the same as ever. Fantastic. In fact, in less than a week, Matt and I will celebrate one year of marriage. Yay! It's actually almost unbelievable that an entire year has passed. I'm every bit as crazy for him as I was the day we met. BTW, does anyone know how long a frozen wedding cake top needs to defrost before it is consumed? I'm really hoping it tastes ok. Well, even if it doesn't, we'll manage to choke it down, I'm sure. We are planning on our anniversary to spend the day at the beach where we said our vows. And then, next weekend, we're going to bop on over to Orlando and use our Disney passes that are about to expire. I'm really looking forward to it! I love going places with Matt, he's the perfect travel companion, especially on weekend jaunts!

I suppose I have now brought my blog pretty much up to date. Hopefully, I will have additional news to share in the near future.
