Royal Weddings and Royal Pains!

Well, it was a wonderful morning of people coming together for love and celebration of love, which is always a wonderful thing!

I watched my first Royal Wedding this morning with Will and Kate and was amazed by the dress, the glorious appearance of the Abbey, the choir, etc. Everything is just as you would have though it to be: Regal and majestic. That being said, I wished I would have seen a little more passion between Will and Kate. When they approached the balcony to make their first appearance as husband and wife and have their first kiss as husband and wife, I felt like it was a quick embarrassed peck vs. a couple excited to kiss as husband and wife for their first time. But I suppose I can't talk as I don't know how it would feel to share a kiss in front of millions of people...But it would have been fun! :) I really enjoyed it all though! It was nice to see those childhood princess dreams actualized you know? It was sweet.

My royal pain? Having the start date for work pushed back another week! Now I know what you all are saying: Enjoy your last week off...But really you guys, I haven't worked in 6 months (which I have NEVER done before! and I'm sooo bored now!) and the lack of income really is stressing for us (it's no fun not being able to do anything because you don't have the money you know? You end up just being a hermit!). I think a good portion of it as well is needing that purpose you know? Right now there is just no purpose for me other than to just exist it seems, so this will make me feel much better and we can enjoy life a little more two without having to pinch every penny! (Not working is a little more fun for the rich I would imagine! But not soo much for the poor!) :) We will get there though! I'm extremely grateful for the job I have gotten though! I'm pretty blessed considering there are some job woes here still. I'm REALLY excited to start though!

The Royal wedding was neat to see, but I still have a certain fondness to a Feb 14th wedding with a man who is and always will be a prince to me!

I hope you all find/have found your prince as well!

Live, Laugh, Love.

"The Lead of Love"...

"Looking back at the road so far The journey's left it's share of scars. Mostly from leaving the narrow and straight. Looking back it is clear to me, that a man is more than the sum of his deeds, And how you make good of this mess I've made is a profound mystery. Looking back you know you had to bring me through all that I was so afraid of though I questioned the sky now I see why...Had to walk the rocks to see the mountain view looking back I see the lead of love Looking back I can finally see how failures bring humility(I'd rather have wisdom and pain) Brings me to my knees (Than be a comfortable old fool)Helps me see my need for thee..." - "The Lead of Love" from Caedmon's Call. I have really been working on putting the pieces of my life back together and I think that one of the things that have been missing in my life is my spiritual growth. It's something I've been thinking and missing for some time now and think that maybe ...

Facing Fears Head On

We all get scared from time to time. It's not unusual, it's not a feeling only subjected to specific individuals, it can influence anyone. The trick is to admit your scared, figure out why, and face it straight on. I think this is something that I've been facing daily since my divorce (and definitely before but it's been more prominently noticeable since my divorce), back then it was "how will I do this on my own?", "will anyone ever love me or am I even capable of loving someone back?" and maybe the funniest of the bunch: "Am I going to become one of those 'spinsters' with 20 cats?!!?" (I don't even really like cats that much! LOL! I much prefer a dog!) But I think this experience here has been the scariest of all experiences. These are new fears like fitting in, adjusting to the culture, acceptance, being able to work and make a good living, driving, etc. It plays on my mind everyday. I know I can do this, I know that 6 mo...

These Small Hours...

"Our lives are made in these small hours, these little wonders,these twists & turns of fate. Time falls away, but these small hours,These small hours still remain..." I love this song from Rob Thomas, I think it fully embraces one of my favorite things in life: know knowing and appreciating the little things in life. I really feel that a lot of times, it's the small things that can make the biggest impact in one's life, and sadly enough, it's often the things we take for granted the most. When I was in Boise and things felt rough or those "twists and turns of fate" would throw blows at me, I used to drive up to table rock (or area's by that also over-looked the city) when the sun was setting and stars were coming out to think and put things back into perspective. I remember being just in awe of the sight as the sun slowly dipped into the earth and the night city would come alive with the stars making their twinkly appearance above. As I sat the...
