Love You, Mean It

As we sit here with Brian playing football and me listening to love songs and getting overly emotional and teary eyed, I think yet again of how happy and lucky I am. As "Let's Stay Together" is finally allowed on the playlist again and is a happy tune again, and I find new songs to love and relate to our lives :)

I'm sappy, I know....

"Ten miles from town and I just broke down
Spittin' out smoke on the side of the road
I'm out here alone just tryin' to get home
To tell you I was wrong but you already know

Believe me I won't stop at nothin'
To see you so I've started runnin'

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
As long as I'm laughin' with you
I'm thinkin' that all that still matters is love ever after
After the life we've been through
'Cause I know there's no life after you

Last time we talked, the night that I walked
Burns like an iron in the back of my mind
I must've been high to say you and I
Weren't meant to be and just wastin' my time

Oh, why did I ever doubt you?
You know I would die here without you

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
As long as I'm laughin' with you
I'm thinkin' that all that still matters is love ever after
After the life we've been through
'Cause I know there's no life after you

You and I, right or wrong, there's no other one
After this time I spent alone
It's hard to believe that a man with sight could be so blind
Thinkin' 'bout the better times, must've been outta my mind
So I'm runnin' back to tell you

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
Without you God knows what I'd do, yeah

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
As long as I'm laughin' with you
I'm thinkin' 'bout all that still matters is love ever after
After the life we've been through, yeah
Know there's no life after you"

one year later and a much happier place.

Have Faith

So my Mary Engelbright calendar has been very funny lately. It has eerily appropriate comments for different days and events. When my poor student had her first confrontation with a vomiting patient, the calendar said "If at first you don't succeed, try again. If not, then quit!" For the day that we began to wonder if we would be able to get our house, was the two words of "Have Faith." And for my day in peds was the picture of a bad little boy with the quote "If you can;t be a good example, you'll just have to be a terrible warning." This was then followed by a day of typically bad kids behaving extremely well. There remains nothing much too new in our lives. Still waiting for our contract to be signed and attourney review to end. Keeping our fingers crossed as I try to be a patient person.
