So right now, I'm online looking at deals for the week, thinking about all of the hundreds of coupons I need to get organized, and thinking about something new to come (you'll find out about it hopefully by the end of the week). Josh, on the other hand, is in the living room doing Denise Austin's Yoga DVD. Yes, you read it right. I bought this DVD MONTHS ago, finally opened it a couple of weeks ago, did a quick "watch through" of it, and didn't go back to it. He is or can be much more disciplined than I can or ever hope to be. Go Josh!!
I have stuff to write about, but at the same time, I don't think any of it is too terribly important or worth typing out. We ended up not having a doctors appointment in February b/c I wasn't able to do the necessary tests. We'll hope for March! I truly am finding a peace with all of this...I don't feel that I'm near as obsessed with it all as I have been the last few years. Don't get me wrong, it's not like I've had this sudden change of heart and no longer want children or anything like that, but I pray about this a lot, and as I said before, I pray for patience, and I think I'm finding that lately. There are so many other things for me to work on right now, and when the time is right, everything will just fall into place. Thanks for keeping us in your prayers...it means a lot!
Have you ever wondered what your purpose is in life? Who am I kidding, I'm sure we all have at some point! I wonder that a lot. I just noticed that I keep saying "a lot" a lot, lol. Sorry! Anyway, back on topic. I have really had this on my mind lately...what am I supposed to do, what am I meant to do with my life?! Mainly, I'm thinking about this in the career sense. I know without a shadow of a doubt that I need to help others, but how?! I have really been searching lately to find out the answer to this question. Have you found what is it you think you were meant to do, and if so, do you feel fulfilled with it? I need a little inspiration here and would love to know your story :o)
On another note, today is 13 years since the day my dad died. Yesterday would have been my parents 29th wedding anniversary. The neat thing was, that 29 years ago yesterday, there was a snow storm on my parents wedding day here in Alabama. I thought it was special that it snowed yesterday :o) I miss my dad every day, and he will always hold such a special place in my heart.

You know this...I don't have to say it, but I will...I love you.
Let me just say...I'm so glad you are no longer private! I didn't meet your deadline before & was sad I had no way of letting you know I wanted to read your blog.
One more thing we have in common...My parents anniversary is March 1st also. This is just too strange.
Josh doing yoga cracks me up...
I will admit I'm a little glad you aren't private anymore because private blogs don't show up in my google reader, so I don't get updated when you post. Now I do! Hope all your tests go ok in March!
Go Josh with the yoga. I never could get into that. I'm glad you are doing better with the baby thing. Hope March it better for you.
Yeah, I didn't like that private thing either. :-)
What a sweet picture of you and your parents. Of course I remember them looking just like that. :-)
Love you, girl. Hang in there.
You will find people to help all along the way ... don't doubt it. It doesn't necessarily have to be a profession. Sometimes they turn up in the strangest of ways...you just have to keep your heart and eyes open.
I ditto Teale's comment. I'm glad you're back on my updater. :)
I wish I could catch the exercise bug...I just keep coming up with other things to do. Love the picture of you and your parents and thought it was so special that it snowed on their anniversary!
Sometimes I still feel like I haven't "found" it in life, but I think each stage of your life you may have a different purpose... just remember that God has it all planned out for you.
Amanda, you are such a strong and beautiful person. I know that your dad would be super proud of the woman you have become. I know that you made me feel much better when I posted about my dad and I hope that I can reciprocate those feelings. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Love you!
