11:22 pm - Thoughts
This past week has been a good one. Josh and I were finally able to make it to the temple on Tuesday. Everytime we go I am reminded of the serenity and peace that is felt there. All my troubles and worldly burdens are cast away as I step into the Lord's house. I am so thankful for places of refuge and understanding. I have been listening to my christian cd's all week and you woulnd't believe how much better of a mood good songs can put you in. It definately brings things into perspective in this hectic, fast-paced life. I have also been training for my new job at BJ's this week. I think i am going to like it there. The managers and staff are very nice, the food is awesome, and the company itself gives a lot back to the community. I have to work/train 5 days next week. Tomorrow, I have to go straight from church to work and will be there until about 11pm. I am not too excited about working on Sunday, but I am definately excited about eating the food. They told us today that by the end of training we will have had the opportunity to try everything on the menu. They told us to come hungry becaues we'd be eating a lot. Food..I'm there! With me training and Josh working late this past week we haven't seen much of eachother. He gets home and has to sleep and I have to leave. Today we had an hour together, yesterday I think we had 3 hours. It just makes the time we do spend together more special. It's hard though. I think it will only get worse when school starts back up and he gets his steady shift for the next year, which will most likely be graves. Today, after training I spent the day with my family. My dad came to BJ's and took Sydney to their house and I met up with them at about noon. We went shopping and just hung out. It was nice. I also started scrapbooking again. After looking through pictures I realized that Josh and I have a ton of pictures. I have always wanted to make a scrapbook of us, just for memories sake, and to show our future children someday. This is easier said than done! I already have two huge binders of letters that Josh sent me while he was on his mission. I think that will be cool to show our kids someday. Anyway, I scrapbooked for like 2 hours last night and walked away with four pages! Scrapbooking takes a ton of time. I enjoyed myself though. I brought all my supplies into the kitchen and plopped them on our island and had at it. I played music and thoroughly enjoyed myself. I told my mom that she would have to come stay the night sometime soon so that we could have a scrapbooking party. It sure did bring me back to a place that I loved. It's amazing how my high school sweetheart is now my permanant sweetheart. Love endures and it lasts. In the period of two years I talked to Josh maybe a total of 3 hours on the phone. At the beginning I got a ton of letters, but near the end they would come a few times a month. We changed and we grew up. Distance and time made our hearts grow fonder, and he came home and we picked up just as we left off. Josh is my best friend and although we like to tease eachother and get on eachother's nerves at times, we love eachother with everything that we are. I think we will always have the fun, teasing relationship. He puts me in my place and reminds me that the world doesn't revolve around me. I think that is good, although it isn't entirely bad to be a princess in your husband's eyes! He called me twice tonight at work already. I think he misses me! It's really cute. Well I think my novel is complete for tonight. Way too much time on my hands!!!
