I don't know WHY I am up this early in the morning..........I am really trying to make the most of my off days! LOL
I have been doing lots of reading, and watching some TV.......I am so busy during the week that I don't have much time to indulge in my favorite activities. I take advantage of the opportunity to do so as soon as the time is available.
I have a lot of phone calls to make today, and I plan to tackle the girls' hair (GOD HELP ME, LOL). Thursday is their first day of summer school, and I want them to look cute!
My hubby's friend, who just married recently, sent us a disturbing photograph; it's a HUGE bite mark on one of his (?) limbs, taken next to some prescription medication, and the title of the photo message reads "Please pray for my marriage.....it's failing." I don't yet know if it is him, or someone he knows. I do know that Matt was looking for a message from him earlier this week. I didn't have the heart to show Matt the pictures this morning on his way to work. He and the guy are like brothers. I will be praying.
Those first few years of marriage are the toughest, because the man and woman are learning how to live with one another. We truly learn who and what we are in those first years, and what we are made of. The early years determine whether we are willing to sink or swim. Matt and I had a very rough time, but I am grateful for the fact that he decided to stick it out with me, and I with him. No one says that being married is always easy, or fascinating, or even fulfilling. But the benefits of being married and in a mutually committed relationship, I believe, far outweigh the drawbacks. I shall pray for him, and hope that whatever the problem is will be resolved, and soon.

Man I remember the first year when I was married. Good Lord. I disliked everything about my husband. I kept wondering why I married him because I didn't know who that alien was who was in my house. I will also be praying for your friends marriage. I am glad that you had a day off. Good Luck with the girls hair. You know when you finish if you could come and comb mine I would greatly appreciate it. (giggle) http://journals.aol.com/iamtish0726/all-things-are-possible/ Tish
I do pray for your hubby's friend. Yep marriage those first few years are so hard. I'm happy that you and hubby are trying to work it out. Why are you early? I'm sure your daughters will look great for summer school.
