just because

since ehrrbody seems to be getting engaged these days i thought i'd tell our engagement story. odds are i've written about it before. but let's get real. if i can't remember if i have... i know nobody else remembers either. jay and i were besties for several years before we started dating. lots of good times and BAD times with that. i'm pretty sure i've written that story...if not, will do. so we started dating in december of 2005. we already knew basically everything about each other so dating was kinda pointless. ha. i knew i wanted to marry jay when i met him. he took A LOT longer to catch on to our love... but i think he knew when we started dating we'd get hitched. fast forward to april 2006. it was easter sunday. sporting my seersucker dress (from steve & barrys! sarah jane!!)  i arrived at church ready to celebrate Jesus' resurrection and then get my grub on at the Webbs. YUM. i didn't think too much of the day b/c jay had assure

so tuesday morning started pretty normal. went to work, got a lot done before lunch and was feeling pretty good. went to lunch by myself. sometimes i like to do that. but i go places where i know they know i have friends/family, ha. is that weird?! so i grabbed my kindle and went to lunch. it was relaxing and perfect. seriously, i got in my car after lunch and thought, "wow, i am freezing, chills that just won't stop!" got back to work and by the time i got to my desk i thought i was going to vomit. super nauseous. it was awful. so i shut my laptop and headed home. i thought if i took a hot shower and rested a bit that i'd feel better. nope, not so much. it was 2:30pm when i laid down and i was down til friday morning! awful. tuesday was the worst. everything hurt. everything. i couldn't even get comfortable in bed. the only way i could lay and not want to die was on my stomach. so thats pretty much how i stayed. i was beyond nauseous, achy, awful chills..

few things to start... i put gabe on the preschool waiting list at st. luke today. i keep telling people that i feel like i'm back in middle school hoping to not be rejected or picked last in PE class. no joke. i'm nervous. i got no credit for gabe having 4 cousins in the school. dang. in fact i didn't get to check any of the "bump you to the top of the list" boxes. we're probably screwed. christ community - where's our preschool? i might be able to get my child in :) second, i asked a lady that i have loved and admired all my life to start mentoring me. this girl needs it. i feel like i'm stuck in a rut spiritually. hope she says yes. oh LAWD i'm just lining myself up for rejection. mmk. let me tell you about my saturday. i hope i'm not the only one who has dumb days like this! it all started with an early morning run with madison. apparently neither one of us thought checking the forecast was important because we were completely u
