The joy of a salesman


I'm in lufkin this week with david. His team will be here for the next 2 weeks probably. I thought after being married we were done with long distance!! =) So i decided to be here with him at least one week.


Yesterday I went on the doors with him. It's hilarious the kinds of things you can see and do on 2 streets for 7 hours. We saw a big fat possum, met lots of old people with funny opinions to say, had a naked lady come to the door and say "why you knockin so late?!" when it was only 6:15pm. David sold this old lady who kept repeating herself and forgetting what she was doing, her birthday, her middle name etc. However she wanted and needed the system. Later her son found out and cancelled it...apparently she has als heimers. Then Why does she live alone??!!! I don't know, all the more reason for an alarm system. ANYway.


David says the ONLY way he'll do this again is if I'm selling too. The money is good, but I don't know if I want to put myself through that kind of mental anguish. Is your home protected??? Call david! he can hook you up!!! =) We honestly can't wait to just be students again!! Well...me anyway.

my chinny chin chinn


I sure hope we've changed!!!

Today is david and I's one month anniversary! ha! We celebrate everything =) why not?! Even though we've been married a short time, I am confident we could win the newleywed game by a huge margin =) Being married has made our lives easier it seems. No more long road trips, late night phone calls, having to go home late at night, packing clothes to visit etc etc. Everything about being married is grrreat. And I'm pretty sure it's not the "honeymoon" stage. We've been together 5 years so I believe that whole rose colored glasses syndrome has worn off, but we still love each other like crazy!

So in honor of our special day, I thought he deserved some major props for the man he is. He does it through all the little things...for example...yesterday he:

brought me cereal in bed
helped me teach the 3 sunbeam class at church
tells everyone I'm amazing when I don't deserve it
Opened the door for me
let me have a sip of his coveted dr. pepper
taught the FHE lesson with his parents
let me sleep extra while he showered
kissed me on my forehead
listened to me talk about nothing
laughed at my dumb jokes
and basically made me feel like a queen

I'm a pretty lucky girl. The end.


One more great thing that happened yesterday...I walked outside to a surprise gift from mark and patti! Mark made me an easle! (is that spelled right?) He's handy with a saw and made me an artist's easle!!!! flippin awesome! Thank you thank you!
