Happy 4th Anniversary!

Four years ago today, I posted my first blog posting ever. [sigh!] Hard to believe it has been 4 years, but what a ride it has been.

Together we've...
enjoyed the blessings of GOD
thrilled at the awesome privilege of being an Aunt
chatted about the joys and turmoils of single life
discussed the malicious intent of spiders
pined for George Clooney
traveled around the country and down memory lane
found kindred spirits
managed to keep sane amidst the drama
learned how important relationship is on our walk
reviewed music, movies, musicals and books
become addicted to facebook but made a full recovery
dissed Valentine's Day (Single Awareness Day)
snapped photos regularly
fought off 2 invading armies of crickets
been charmed by the likes of Mr. Darcy and Mr. Rochester
explored city parks, museums and gardens
talked about the highs and lows of friendship
caught up on local culture
enjoyed the excitement of several beautiful weddings
thrilled at the perfect formation of a delightful turn of phrase
been captivated by art, architecture and photography
fallen in love with a serial killer (but he is just fictional)
dieted and tried to get healthier
signed up for eharmony and then immediately bailed
become a biker again
laughed about the irony
searched for a new church home and then returned to the old
discovered how scary doctor-prescribed steroids can be
reconnected with old friends
enjoyed city life
gotten caught up in apartment living drama
gotten people lost with our navigation skills
appreciated the blessing of having awesome girlfriends
realized our own special gifts like Spi-Dar and sarcasm
crushed over a guy or two [sigh!]
learned how important a good night's sleep can be
been enraptured with the beauty of a sunset or a glorious dahlia
googled a bit too often perhaps
and laughed a whole bunch.
WOW! It's been quite an adventure. Thanks for coming along on my journey! I've definitely been better off for having had you alongside. Thank you!
