Bad to Better

Bad to Better.  That basically describes the last 2 weeks in a nutshell.  There were a couple of emotional speed bumps I encountered last week that really shook me up.  I've never been one to hold onto negative feelings, but I know good and well that Satan was trying to attack me.  As last weekend came I decided to fill my life with a busy schedule to help me forget those negative feelings. 
Saturday I had my last laser hair removal session, a free haircut, and my first wax!  Sunday we went to Church and then went to meet up with one of Bud's high school friends Oliver and his family that was visiting from Germany.  I even fit in time with other friends at a pool party that afternoon.  Monday we had dental appointments in the morning, I had a doctors appt in the afternoon, and that night we met friends at Barton Springs and I took my first plunge into the natural springs.  It was a balmy 68 degrees.........BRRRR!!!!  Tuesday night Bud was working at the IMAX which meant I got to go to see Inception, one word...AMAZING!  Wednesday we met up with another group of friends we know through ROTC.  Bud was asked to be a groomsman in one of their weddings come June 2011.  Thursdays we normally have small group, but this week was different.  We had a free night.  The groom to be came over to have dinner with us and we skyped with his fiance.  She asked me to be a bridesmaid!  Bud & I will be walking down the aisle again June 4, 2011!  I'm UBER excited.  This will be the 2nd time that we are both in the wedding party and it'll be the 3rd wedding besides my own that I'll be in!  Always a bridesmaid, already a bride!  Tonight we are going to meet yet another couple to play BINGO at the local Bingo Hall.  I know you can laugh it's an old person game, but believe it or not it can be a real hoot and semi-addictive. 
So as you can see I made myself busy this week.  So busy that I mostly forgot those feelings that I had encountered the week before.  I'm not sure that I've completely worked through the emotions.  I'm still questioning a lot of my actions, even though Bud says he doesn't think I need to.  I'm going to keep praying for peace.  I'm going to keep praying for discernment in all I do. 

On a side note--
I received my AS in Business Management in May.  I immediately registered to take ASL 3 this semester.  Tuesday I had it on my heart all day that maybe I should drop the class.  After Bud got home from work at 11:30pm and right as we were crawling into bed I mentioned to him that I wanted to talk about our plans for this coming semester.  I told him I didn't know if I wanted to take a class this fall.  It was amazing, because he immediately told me that he had been feeling the same way, but that he had decided to wait to see if I said anything.  He didn't want to influence my decision.  That is why I love my husband.  He knew that if I really wanted to take classes he would support me and that if I didn't he would back me there too.  I think he's really noticed how much I've enjoyed coming home from work each day to clean up and cook a home cooked meal!  I've enjoyed being able to spontaneously meet up with friends and not have to worry about homework.  This will be Bud's last year in school and our last year in Austin.  I don't want to miss anything and I want to be able to go to everything!  So Wednesday morning I logged into my school account and dropped my class.  I'll be readily available for anything this school year has to throw at us.  What a blessing!
