In order in keep record of life with my being back and forth from Texas to Georgia and figuring out life, i have decided to start keeping a photo a day log. My hope is that it will help me slow down and sit back enough to focus on what is around me, as well as the small joys and oddness that make my life...well, my life :) I stared this about a week ago, but just haven't uploaded the photos yet, ha. So here is my back log of photos from my odd life :) Hope you enjoy :)

Day 1
A beginning of the year self shot is important in my opinion, tis nice to look back at the end of the year and see how much you've changed. On this day i was wearing Chason's Baylor University tee...yes,i gotta represent my state, don't ya know ;) This is probably one of my favorite tees of his to steal...after the one he wore when we first met anyway :)
Day 2
I can't be the only girl who finds the way her man drinks Starbucks hot...right? Something about the cup colors and the name, combined with the hotness of the guy...i get giggly :)
Day 3
Black berries have become my favorite breakfast, lunch, and snack food! I find them best after a few days of sitting in the fridge, they get a sweeter flavor. I love their squishy-ness :)
Day 4
Mr. Scary grass fire face :) Chason had a little too much fun when we grilled out...This is the result of his fascination for fire and knack for giving me a panic attack...i hate fire. Twas quite the nice night though, grilled steak, sauteed spinach was the menu. We also made a new vinaigrette recipe i had just found, i'm not too much for salad, but with a great vinaigrette, i'm all in :)
Day 5
The epitome of snugly :)
Day 6 (Yesterday)
I've been taking care of Chason's parents cats while they went out of state, feeding them and cleaning their litter...which brings me to a thought; does anyone realize how backwards it is that we humans, scoop up animal poo? Most of the time while they sit and watch, mocking us with their stares, knowing that they have all power...it just seems like it it should be the other way around...animals clean up human crap, ya know?...but, they are furry and we are not (Some of us) so i guess they win.
Point is; it's been non stop rainy and i've been scooping up cat poo, along with dealing with my own crap...life crap, not, well, the other kind of crap...Sooo, stress has been ultra high...emotions have been pretty intense, and there are just so many changes and things on my plate.
Yesterday morning Chason had a business meeting and had to run some errands and i decided to stayed at the house. It was rainy like whoa, the internet and satellite were down, and i wasn't feeling well. I was quite lonely...Texas time was 8am and no one i know is awake or able to talk then. I love my man and can't wait to start our new life here in the peach state, but it is hard being alone here...apart from him, i have no one here...a cousin yes, but i'm not super close to him yet. Relationships are hard right now...which is more pie than i can slice into here, but yeah...it's hard sometimes.
Thankfully, that morning i went to go clean up cat poo, and found Lewis (orange kitty) in when he wasn't supposed to be. Though this morning i think God let him in, because he came up to me, purred and sat on my lap as i cuddled and squeezed him like a teddy bear. I'v never seen a more cuddly and sweet cat. He, along with Little Bit (other kitty), kept me company and made me smile and laugh...it was like the sunshine i needed on that gray day. Sometimes it's the little things (and the furry things) that make a difference :)
Day 7 (today)
Chason had another meeting this morning, though this time i tagged along and waited in the car. Of course we made a very necessary trip to Starbucks before his meeting, and got our normal hot chocolate (his) and iced white mocha (mine), as well as tried the cheese and fruit bistro box..twas quite the delight and made us very happy on this early morning...mmm cheese and fruit...what is better? :) I'm thinking of getting a new usual Starbucks drink though, i mean i love my white mocha, but i'm feeling like a new season in life deserves a new drink. Any suggestions? I've already done the caramel macchiato and caramel frap, which were '08 and '09's drinks...am i the only person who likes to change Starbucks drinks by the year? Hmm....
Oh look, we are all caught up now :) Yay :) Till the morrow blog peoples :)
