An Introduction

Hello world! It's me! And if I'm going to tell you about my life I think you should know about who's in my life.

Let's begin:

This is me at the office. I dressed up as a Hippie this Halloween and thought it was appropriate to show you this picture first.

This is us - Jim and myself. We were having a holiday photo shoot and I liked this one best.


These are our dogs, Boy and Maddie (respectively). They are wonderful dogs, except when they eat the pot roast for dinner. Then they are bad dogs.


This is Luna, our kitty. She loves to cuddle and explore, and can be a royal pain in the butt...but she's wonderfully smart, comes when she's called, and loves to sleep like this:


That's our immediate family. We live in a quaint little town that has lots of historical buildings and we love to spend time with friends when we're not working. We also love to travel and go on vacations (last year we went to Mexico and it was a blast!)

That's my little family! The end.

25, still alive...my my my, how far I've come.

This blog started over a year ago when I was in a dark place. It was meant to be a spiritual outlet for my frustrations over an ex, and a place to document a vow of singleness I placed on my heart after the relationship was over.
It seems God had other plans for me, but I still want to return to this blog to document my life...when I remember to do so.
I'm in a relationship with James, and have been over a year and 4 months. We're currently working through our copy of "The Love Dare", and my relationship is by no means perfect...I still don't have a home church. I still work a lot and I don't have time for anything.
But I'm learning a ton about who I am and what I want, and I think it's important to share it. There has to be some chronicle of my life, even if no one else reads it.

I live with James in what I like to call the 'Haus of Rohrer' (an ode to his last name and the fact that we're both German). We live with and take care of his elderly grandfather. Life is definitely not where I thought I would be right now...but somehow, I'm really starting to enjoy the "day to day" of it, and not thinking big picture anymore.

Finding simplicity and happiness and gratitude goes a long way to make a happy girlfriend (or wife, someday).

This blog may be private, or public...I don't know that I'll advertise I've recently started to talk about my life again, but for now, this is enough.
