Hello there everyone.  I know I haven't been around the past couple of months, but you'll have to forgive me.  I have come to the realizations as of late that I am struggling with a very serious round of depression.  I am not in danger of hurting myself, but I haven't felt this way in about 10 years.  It's really crazy and annoying, but things haven't been easy.  I hate feeling the way I have been and can't stand not having the confidence that I used to.

On a completely different note, Jonathan just turned 1 year on Wednesday! His birthday party is tomorrow here at home.  I'm really getting excited about it...and his gift from my husband and me.  We are in the process of making him a growth chart!  It's really cool, and I'm happy with how it's turning out.  It's got his name down the side and will have a sail boat, a small ship, a car driving on a bridge and an airplane!  It's so cool...and what is really great is that it's not costing us anything!  YEAH!!!

For those who pray, I do ask that you keep me in your prayers as despite the excitement with tomorrow, I'm still struggling inside. I pray for each day to be a good day, but it's very rare if it happens at all. I really appreciate it!

We are finally home!  I'm so happy about that.  We got in yesterday afternoon...we were supposed to come in on Monday night, but that didn't happen.  Oh well.  It's not the end of the world.  If I've got the energy, I'll write more later, but as of right now, I'm nursing a bum knee (I went to deplane and I turned but my knee didn't), and dealing with a little bit of jet lag...I hope that everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving!

So...I've got so much to do before we leave for Phoenix. I'm leaving Tuesday and my husband is leaving Wednesday.  We're going to be having so much fun with flying standby.  I get to travel with Jonathan by myself...it's going to be a blast. (or not). We're heading down for Thanksgiving and for my brother in law's wedding two days later.  I'm excited to see family...especially my in laws as they are coming in for this. It'll be their first time meeting Jonathan! 

Well...back to the grind.
