Six months? Seriously?

Cur­rent Mood: Happy & Sur­prised

Yes. It’s been six months, almost to the day, that I last wrote any­thing here. A lot can HAS hap­pened since then. 

School: I’m now in my sec­ond semes­ter of school. I got through the first semes­ter with a 4.0!!! 

The Boy: He’s still his same old, crazy, ener­getic self. He’s devel­op­ing into this inter­est­ing per­son who I am still get­ting to know. He keeps me laugh­ing with the things he says. I look at him and won­der where he came from some­times. He’s still the light of my life! Halfway through fourth grade, honor roll stu­dent, sings in the choir, takes piano lessons, and is the world’s fore­most author­ity on all things Drag­onball Z. He got Rock Band 2 for Christ­mas, and I’m telling you: The most HILARIOUS thing in the world is hear­ing this boy sing “Eye of the Tiger”!! 

Church: Still teach­ing Bible Study. 13let​ters​.com. The kids love it!

Read­ing: I have no idea where my Pur­suit of Holi­ness book is. I DO know where Know­ing God is…but I just don’t have time to read! Work, school, The Boy, Sleep and.…..

For a minute, let’s go back to my last entry. Six months ago:

I keep read­­ing a lot of “sin­­gle mom” blogs. I love them. One thing I see is that a lot of them talk about dat­ing. They make me feel weird, because I have ZERO inter­est in dat­ing. Maybe men have got­ten on my nerves one too many times, or maybe I just have too many other things to think about, but I just have no desire to cul­ti­­vate a rela­­tion­­ship now or in the forsee­able future. I like my life the way it is. Well, I could stand to get out and do more, but oth­­er­­wise, I’m cool. Don’t get me wrong: I occa­­sion­ally have moments when I would like male com­­pan­ion­­ship, but it never gets to the point that I want it enough to do some­thing about it. The feel­ing passes and I keep it mov­ing.

I kinda like it this way though. I have wasted so much time in my life think­ing about men and rela­­tion­­ships. It’s a relief not to be dwelling on it now. My focus now is on three things: Liv­ing a life pleas­ing to God, rais­ing my son to live the same way, and going to school. I think that those things keep my plate pretty full.

I meant that. When I wrote it. I did. For real! But then Octo­ber came. A chance meet­ing with my first love. Phone calls. Long ones. Seri­ous con­ver­sa­tions, where a man who is now 40 admits that he has loved me since he was 14. And now it is Jan­u­ary 26. And I am get­ting mar­ried on Sep­tem­ber 4, 2010. I think I’ll start a wed­ding blog and go into detail on that.

God has the ULTIMATE sense of humor. I’m SO seri­ous.
