Today is the first day of 2006. While I have a feeling in my gut that this year will be a good - maybe even great year - I have nothing fantastic to say to capture my feelings tonight. I'm afraid I'm rather out of words. They have been stolen I think. Stolen by the same monster who stole sleep from me this week. But I can say this: in church this morning the pastor pointed something out that I found particularly intriguing. He said that it is a known fact (he may not have used the word "fact" however...I'm tired...) that people reinvent something about themselves every seven years. That resonated deep with me. If you have you have known me for seven years, or know anything about what my life has been like for the last seven years, you know why.
I'm worn-out from a week of staying up too late and plan to throw my throbbing head against my pillows in a few moments.
I doubt I will be able to reinvent my headache. But seven years after its onset seems as good a time as any for reinvention of something. So here's to 2006 and reinventing me. May my Lord lead the way!
Back in college, in 2004 when blogging was hardly even a thing yet, I was here. Blogging before blogging meant anything to anyone. You can look in the archives for my past writings, but it was much more like a journal in the past. When we started fundraising, I messed around with the idea of launching something new for this new phase of our journey but actually hated that idea. I am a sum of all of my life and so much of it is here already. So I'm keeping it here. At least for now.
My main focus these days is blogging about our newest journey into the bizarre and wonderful world of gestational surrogacy. Posts dated 2013 and forward will trend heavily toward that journey. I don't promise everything I write will be about though. There might be other things that sneak in occasionally.
Please come along our journey with us. As the saying goes, "The more, the merrier!"
