I solved a mystery today. I slipped on a pair of shorts that I didn't remember owning and that I hadn't worn since last summer. (Yes, they fit! - although I little too snugly I'm afraid.) As I was straightening out the pockets, I noticed a piece of paper in one of them. I pulled it out. It had been washed and was very fragile, but I carefully opened it up to find 3 library call letters.

Yes, I'm one of "those" people who actually frequents the library. Now that I have kids, they're my excuse to go, but I confess I'd go anyway. Where else can you find free movies, books, CDs, and computer software for free? But I digress...

I thought it would be interesting to find out what was behind those unrevealing numbers that I held: 641.578, 658.048, and 346.73. After a little bit of digging online, I managed to find out that 1 year ago, I looked up books on making a nonprofit work, women and divorce, and outdoor cooking. How's that for a varied diet of reading material? That's me. That sums me up pretty well. Interests from one spectrum to the other.

It is remarkable to think that just last Memorial Day, I was having to deal with hwmnbn moving out, facing a possible nasty divorce, and now, we're as in love as ever. And no, I'm not just saying that. I mean it. He has made so many awesome changes, and I really admire him today. In just a short year, he's come so far. :tear:

Solving that mystery today really struck me. How far I've come. How far we've come. How much has changed in a year. Just when things were horrible and I didn't know how I was going to manage, the sun comes up. I can see again. Things get cheerier.

Time for me to curl up next to my hubby and my little one. Good night.

Marriage is not just spiritual communion, it is also remembering to take out the trash.
