Sorry for the mondo delay in posts. I’ve been busy this past week with renovations to our family room. We painted the walls, and striped one of them which took longer than I thought I would. And then my cousins from Michigan came up for the weekend, and those two kids keep me busy. Seriously, why do kids have so much energy?! Haha..

Jack and I went to a house-warming party this weekend for his high school friend and his fiancée. We got to see many of Jack’s high school friends, so it was nice. It made me think about what it will be like for Jack and I to have our own place, and I get really excited about it. It won’t happen for at least another year since we will only live together after we get married. And we all know how long it takes to plan a wedding! So their house was pretty nice, and it was fully furnished. I was surprised that they were having a house-warming party before their wedding, which is two weeks from now. I guess I always assumed that you do that after you get married. Perhaps I am too old fashioned to understand more current trends.

Recently I’ve been thinking about past events that caused me a lot of pain. I had thought for a while that I had dealt with it and let it go, but just last week Jack and I had an argument, which made me realize that some of my anger still exists. I now know that the anger I had for previous events festers itself in current situations. This really bothers me and I’m not sure what to do. Are these things that will always be with me and I can never fully get past? Or if it is possible to get past this, then how can I know for sure? Right now I plan on reflection on my actions and my feelings. When I did that after having the fight with Jack, I realized why I felt the way I felt and I could address it. So I am hoping that by doing this I can move on.

Anyway, that is all. I’m hoping to renovate at least one more room or hall in the house, so maybe I won’t post for a while again. =P
