It hasn’t been overly busy lately, but I’ve been spending a lot of time trying to get back into some of my old routines (before wedding planning and other things took over). Things like walking on my treadmill (I’m in the process of watching ‘Good Will Hunting’), getting back into a routine with my kids, etc. It’s not the exact same routine – it’s so awesome to have a husband […] Read More
On weakness: I don’t like to appear ‘weak’. I highly value strength and self-sufficiency. Even though being a single parent wasn’t easy, I take pride in the fact that I was able to provide for my family and manage my household for the last 3 1/2 years. It’s very difficult for me to admit when I am in need or to ask or receive help. This comes from a drive […] Read More
Thought I would post something. I love being married…again. It’s very different from my first marriage – I’m older, wiser, better circumstances. It’s awesome! My husband is amazing!!! He’s so supportive and encouraging. It’s kind of hard to deal with sometimes, because of my staunch independence – I don’t want to appear ‘weak’, like I would NEED someone; I’ve done this for 3 years on my own. Is it a […] Read More
Well, I’m back. I guess it’s time to face the ‘real’ world. I had an awesome honeymoon! Relaxing, and lots of fun. The wedding day was great, too. Some friends who have flickr accounts have pooled their photos of the wedding here (you can also click on the title of this post to get to the site).
I’m getting married. Only a few more hours of being Carol Fisher, soon to be Carol Tebay. Here we go!
2 days to go until the wedding. Yay! I’ve completed all my work-work and now have 2 weeks of holidays. I’m so glad to have the time off. Now it’s just to the last minute details, which after reviewing a checklist one of my bridesmaids sent me, doesn’t look to be too bad. Doesn’t look like I’ve missed much. I’m excited. The day is almost here. And it’s forcasted to […] Read More
Monday it finally hit – excitement over the wedding. Up until Sunday night, my mind was still filled with all the tasks to be completed before August 1. But some great friends surprised Leighton and I with an impromptu pre-wedding party and the excitement started to build. Monday morning came and I started feeling really excited. In less than a week, I’m going to be married! Wow! Last night my […] Read More
Tonight after the kids went to bed, I started watching TV on the couch and fell asleep until 11:30 pm. Must have needed the sleep. With just over a week to the wedding, it feels like there’s too much to do, too little time, but I know it’ll all get done. The thing that is weighing most heavily on me is my workload at work. I want to get everything […] Read More
Luke 5:16 (NLT) I ‘withdrew to the wilderness’ this morning and it was so amazing. I was out of town, sitting on a hilltop, overlooking the prairie and grain fields. Being away from the city, in the midst of nature, of God’s creation, is often where I feel closest to God and where I can hear Him most clearly. I love being there! Just me and God and the birds […] Read More
I enjoy debate. I always have. In high school, I was constantly questioning my youth leaders about why we believed the things we did. Just ask him; he grew up with me. Why was I questioning? Because I honestly wanted to know the Truth. It was not good enough for me to have someone tell me what to believe. I wanted to seek it out and know it for myself. […] Read More
