A Young Wife’s Tale

I stocked up on Gluten Free Chocolate Chex for David and Cinnamon Burst Cheerios for me. I’m happy to know we’re helping our nephew’s school. ShopRiteShopOnceGiveTwice.com even has printable coupons!

I have one $25 ShopRite gift card to give away!

Ten years ago today, David asked me to be his girlfriend.

Jenny B. Jones has a great sense of humor. Every chapter of her book, Save the Date, had me laughing out loud.

It tells the story of Lucy and Alex. Lucy is a klutzy blonde who runs a group home for young women who have aged out of the foster care system. She grew up poor, and disdains people like Alex Sinclair, a wealthy former professional football player who is running for congress. He proposes they fake an engagement to help him win the election. In exchange, he promises funding for her group home.

Friday I went to our local community college to register. Many spring classes had already started, but they managed to register and enroll me in English Composition II. Class started this morning! It went very well. The professor was discussing grammar, and I was pleasantly surprised at how much I remembered from grade school. I’m excited to be going back to school and improving my writing.

*I have never experienced the loss of a child, but this post was just so beautiful, I had to share. Check out Raising Arrows Is There Anything Worse Than This?

*One night last week, David says I yelled in my sleep, “I will not let my best friend die for my best activity!” I have no idea what I was dreaming about. David said he is pleased that even in my dreams I’m making good moral choices.
