Just so there's something new

Not too much to say right now - and really should be working, but taking my 15 minute morning break, which I NEVER do!

Life is good right now! :-)

Finally got my "problems" at work resolved...nothing bad...just a project I work on that blew up (not my fault!)...got it fixed finally! Woo hoo! It's only taken me 2 months!!

Had some friends spontaneously decide to come see me this past weekend - that was fun! I miss them! Got to see one couple from the marriage retreat too - that was fun too!

My sweet wonderful husband was unable to shoot Bambi...he tried...saw 2 deer, but never got a shot on 'em (I've heard this story about 50 times! LOL)...oh well...there's always next time...it's still early in the season!

Not too much to talk about right now...life's good - that's a good thing!

And hey - 206 days till graduation...or 6 months, 3 weeks, and 3 days!!! :-) But who's counting? LOL

Ok back to work...

Luv ya!

Thank you to all who commented on my last post - if you would still like to post a comment on that one - feel free...I'll read 'em, but I'm ready for a new post....All comments were very helpful!

I'm sitting in class tonight...I don't really like this class. I don't pay close attention when I've read the assignment because he doesn't add much to the the text. I'm up for the 2nd half of the hour, so I HAD to read for tonight. That also means I have to pay attention the 2nd half of the class, so I've got to get this ready before that point of the class.... This class is taught by a young attorney who feels like he has something to prove...blah! Just teach the material, I don't care that you have something to prove! And to make it more annoying he walks around with his arms crossed without tucking a hand - so both hands are on top of his arms...blah....ok - can you tell I don't like this class! It's not just the prof...the book stinks also - you'd think something like Intellectual Property would be interesting, new, and well written...if you thought that - you were WRONG! The highlight of the class is visiting with a friend online while she's at work...

Having a little car trouble - hopefully it's nothing major....when I drive it sounds like a stick in the spokes of bicycle tires...it's only when I'm moving...no significance of turning...my sweet wonderful husband changed my brakes and rotors (something else that needed to be done), and didn't notice anything stuck in the tire or anything...gonna take it to the shop tomorrow night, so the mechanic can look at it Friday...hoping it's nothing major, but have NO idea what the problem could be...*sigh*...always fun...

Have some friends coming up this weekend for a marriage retreat...not sure how many of them I'll actually get to see, since we're not going, but hopefully I'll get to see some of 'em...for dinner or something...

The husband is going to hunt Bambi this weekend...he's excited.

I will most likely be doing homework and housework - I know you're jealous!

Ok - getting close to "half-time" so better run spell check and get this posted...
Later!

Friendship

Been thinking alot about friendship lately...won't go into why...just know that it's been on my mind....my thoughts....

What is Friendship?

What can friends "expect" from one another?

What's "required" of a friend?

Is there a minimum requirement for "friendship"?

When you lose contact with an old friend, do they still count as a "friend"?

Is it wrong to "writeoff" a friend?

These are my thoughts, and what I'm considering during my Debtor Creditor class...I'll letcha know what I find...

Dictionary.com...
friend‧ship 
–noun
1. the state of being a friend; association as friends: to value a person's friendship.
2. a friendly relation or intimacy.
3. friendly feeling or disposition.
[Origin: bef. 900; ME; OE frēondscipe. See friend, -ship]
—Synonyms 2. harmony, accord, understanding, rapport.

That doesn't help much - can we define a word with it's root work in each definition...we were told in school that we couldn't do that...

Proverbs 18:24: A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. "

...maybe I need to do more?

Proverbs 27:10: Thine own friend, and thy father's friend, forsake not; neither go into thy brother's house in the day of thy calamity: for better is neighborur that is near than a brother far off.

...guess that rules out just "writing them off"...*sigh*...that's tough...not that I WANT to write someone off...but it feels like it would be easier....I guess what I"m wanting to be able to do is "nothing"...if they aren't doing anything, can I just not do anything?...

Ok...so conclusion - can't write 'em off...I think I can't just do "nothing"...but what's the minimum requirement...who defines "friend"...is it just by self definition "thine own friend"...

Open for comments...actually would like insight...only request is that you don't ask why it's on my mind...please...just comment about friendship in general...

The wedding...

There was a church....















He gave a ring...
















She gave a ring...














A candle was lit (yes it's blurry, but you've seen a candle lit before!)...















They were pronounced married (doesn't he look thrilled! LOL!)...





















They went for a ride...















There was cake...















....and everyone went home!
