Working Out the Bugs

We hope and pray we have everyone able to view this blogsite. Kyle will be blogging tomorrow for the first time. This is a very hectic week at our house Brandy is taking semester finals as is Kyle. But at least the projects are complete and turned in to all the teachers. Lots of things that we are still working out between each other to make this a great year. I feel that we take the people that we live with full time for granted and after 25 years of marriage that is what has happened to us. I just feel like the kids are along for the ride. The weekend after Christmas we went to Holiday in the Park at Six Flags. As kids Mike and I had rode the run away mine trains many many times. And even the kids have rode it with us. But riding that ride in December when it is cold...is a totally different sensation. The last climb before the final free fall you are in a decorated house sitting looking around enjoying the antiques and then...you are dropped into a mine shaft dark as night! That pretty well describes our lives in the last year and put a new prespective on my life. Because after the drop into the "black hole" you resurface on level ground again. I think that is the lesson Mike and I were suppose to learn..and also to trust that the other one is not going to work out after all these years. In the last couple of months, Mike has started stopping by on Friday (he's off that day) and brings lunch for us to eat. We are relearning that it is truly the little things that count.
