Saturday Randoms - Because I Can Make Saturday Random if I Want to

Author: Amber

I can tell how cold it is outside by the lantern/lamp/light in my yard. I live in a townhouse condo and there are lights that are meant to light the path between houses. One of those is in my yard. If it comes on in the evening/at night, then I know it is warm enough for me to go outside. If it doesn’t come on, then I know I should make plans to hibernate. Oh, and also if it isn’t on, it is very unlikely that my van will start.

It is no wonder to me why I don’t watch much TV. First of all, my sweet hubby is a TV hound and has a long list of must-see TV. And the main reason - electronics hate me. The remote hides from me and the cable box mysteriously won’t turn on at times that I feel a little TV couldn’t hurt. And if you are rolling your eyes at my saying that electronics hate me, just ask Jon to confirm my statement - he has seen first-hand how computers treat me compared to how they treat him. It’s sad, really.

Sometimes I wish I could send a text message to Daniel and Josh to tell ask them nicely to quiet down in their beds before they wake up their siblings. It just seems like such a long walk up those stairs at the end of the day.

I was recently humbled by a person (who I occasionally thought negatively of) doing something nice for me. Something double nice. She is not a reader of this blog, but I do appreciate the kindness she shows to me and to my family, even though it may be difficult at times.

Today Jon and I are celebrating our 11th wedding anniversary. Funny thing - today I have the same nervous and tingly feeling in my tummy that I had 11 years ago. We have a very exciting time ahead of us! 11 years, 10 homes, 2 cities, 1 village and 4 wonderful children later, here we are…still in love, still happy, still best friends and still having fun together!
