KG's Hideaway

I've been having so much fun on FaceBook that I have totally neglected my blog!! wth?? You see, on FB I don't cuss and I try not to be too bitchy... but here, I can (and do!!!) say every evil little thought that crosses my tiny little brain. No matter how rude, crude or socially unacceptable (that's something I do well!). Anyhoo...

Jamie and Jess GOT MARRIED!!!! LMAO I told ya, BEYOTCH, that you'd be maried by summer and LOOKIE LOOKIE who was right! I LOVE being right (yet another thing I do well!) Well, congrats. Ya know I love ya... but you know what this means, right? Craig will have design a "shower bar" for you!!! HAHAHAHAAA

Oh yeah, here's this: We attended the UTA athletic banquet with Ryan a couple of weeks ago. She used one year of NCAA eligibility for track but didn't use any of her basketball eligibility since she red-shirted as a result of transferring. SO... she'll be an athletic FRESHMAN in the fall and we CAN'T WAIT for BBALL season to start! This year of not getting to watch her was horrible, but we still enjoyed cheering the team on. Coach pulled her aside the other day and told her to come back prepared to play the 5 and to spend alot of time on the court during games. In high school she was lucky to get a minute or two on the bench each half during games but playing a 5 in college is WAYYYYYYY more physically demanding so this should be interesting. At 6'2 she'll be MOSTLY ok in height in the SL Conference but she's not bulky so she's got to get the upper body strength to match her lower body. We shall see! But here's the pic of that night... oh, and they have ordered the SL Conference Championship rings and should get them in the fall. BLING!!

Uhhh, back to me now... So there's a ton of crap going on here. Kids driving me up the fucking wall, yard work killing me, work needing to be done on the house driving me mad but my one place of complete peace in with Craig. I swear, with Jesus, Mary and Joseph as my witnesses that I do not deserve this man but whatever it was that convinced God to send him to me is my life preserver. He treats me like some kind of wildly expensive thing, like I'll shatter if I'm touched, while still driving me to realize that I'm stronger than I give myself credit for. He sees so much more in me than I've ever (maybe even ever will!) seen in myself but it does challenge me to try and be the person he knows I am. All of that, and I can honestly say that he knows my absolute worst, most embarassing secret... and loves me anyway. I'm so glad I shared that secret, even though I did it when I had no reason to ever believe I'd meet him face to face, because it's allowed me to see that I don't have to hide anything from him... and I don't. Oh don't get me wrong, I don't tell him everything... but neither do I hide anything. If he asks me about something that I don't particularly want to talk about I just buck up the best I can and tell the truth. He knows me well enough to know if there's more to a story or not... plus, I'm the WORST at keeping a secret... horrible. Especially if it's really good or really bad. (are there any other kinds???)

Anyway, we are coming up on our 10th wedding anniversary and I'd really like to do something special for him but don't really know what I want to do. Ideas??? Send 'em my way.

Alright, it's almost 4:30am so I really need to hit the hay. I see him laying there, sound asleep and I really need to go curl up there with him.

G'night...errrrr, G'morning!!
