We enjoyed the warmer weather today but I think that will change tomorrow. Oh, well! I talked to Doug and he sounds good but I think he's ready for Eden and I to be there. I am wanting to fly out next month for my birthday-he'll work, I'll shop and we'll go skiing sometime in between. That all is subject to change that's how life goes for Doug just last week he was getting a month off and heading home! There's not a lot to say but had a few minutes and thought I'd write...an outlet for me. I was reading Kristie's blog and got the idea to give some realism's about myself that you might not know!

1. Having a baby is everything I ever wanted but never knew I did. I never pictured myself as a mother and didn't dream about my wedding day. Now I can't imagine life without Eden.

2. Doug and I dated four months and then got engaged. He's traveled all but 1 year of our marriage and it never gets easier telling him bye. It drives me crazy when I hear people complain about their spouse. If you have someone to talk to and laying next to you at night there's no reason to complain.

3. I type and retype several times before I post because I am not a great writer and grammar wasn't my best subject.

4. I am a people pleaser but I am working on that! I've been told the older you get the easier it is. It takes a lot for me to walk away from a relationship but when I do that's it. After reading Kristy's I understand that it's okay to do that!!

5. I love anything that has to do with water. I use to be a lifeguard and by far it was the best job I have ever had. We didn't get paid much but if they knew what we did there after the patrons left we wouldn't have gotten paid at all!!

6. I would love to do interior decorating full time. Mostly because I love to decorate but partly because I love the show Designing Women. I drive by the house anytime I get the chance. The actual house is in Little Rock.

7. I am addicted to CNN. I watch every chance I can and enjoy talking about politics. I am the liberal one in the family. My sister and I have completely opposite views on everything concerning politics. So, this last election was fun...well, at least it was for me.

Til next time take care,
Alison
