Here's the first wave of pictures, Ness has a bunch more on her camera.

I'm back, and with no Sedona photos. The fact that my batteries died is almost criminal when you consider the fact that the snow was just lightly dusted on those amazing red mountains.
I did, however, get older pictures off my camera, so at least there's SOME.

I just want to be one of the first to say...

I woke up this morning feeling like I had such a deep appreciation for my friends. Sometimes, life just sucks, and you really don't realize how lucky you are to have certain people in your life that are just SO AWESOME, you don't know how you'd get through the day without them. Without making a list (and y'all know how much I ADORE lists), I just want to write down a few thoughts on a few people.
I have this one friend, thousands of miles away, crazy busy schedule, but everyday, every single day, makes time to contact me, even if it's just a "Hey!" or "I'm so sorry, I'm busy."  I have another friend, who is just about 100 miles away, that I have a conversation with every single day. Even with the distance, we make (and keep!) plans to see each other. In fact, I'm leaving to see him for the weekend in about an hour or so. Another friend, who is the person I've known the longest, mother of one, I don't talk to very often... but I hold in such high regards. If ever there was anything wrong, she'd be on top of it, and she still is.  The girls at work.. started off as co-workers, turn out to be such good friends, people I can lean on and vent to, no judgment.
It's just nice to know that when I feel like I'm falling apart and that I'm a mess on the ground, that I have such a great network of people that I can talk to. That's just lucky.

What are you today?

At what stage, when you are trying to reach someone (and leaving voicemails) do you just give up?
I don't want to. I want to fight the person to talk to me, because it's all so contorted. Do they believe the lies? Or do they just simply... not care.
But even if I did, and they did.. would it ever be okay again? Or would it just be weird?
When should I give up?
*sigh* women make life complicated.
This is why I am only friends with boys. Boys are simple. When I fight with boys, it's usually resolved over Cinnabon and Pepsi.
When I fight with women, reputations get dragged through the mud, lies fly everywhere , cattiness and jealousy take over. There's no fighting fair. There's no listening to both sides.
Just bitchy-ness.
Dammit.

Best quote of the weekend:
Nick: "I am okay with you being friends with men, and being close with them. Women are crazy, and I'd rather you didn't have to put up with that."

May I just say: BEST. HUSBAND. EVER

I seem to be doing a lot of these lately.. eh, they're fun <3
