I have been a bad blogger lately. I've been feeling like the days just blend together. Miss Lea wakes me up first thing in the morning and the next thing I know, I am noticing that it's past midnight and I should catch a few hours of sleep. Everything in between has been going really well, though. Just fast. Miles and I celebrated four years of marriage. Lea's got me caught between frustration and infatuation (with love underlying it all). Noah's transformed into quite the jolly fellow. Nursing is going very well, which is a relief. He's huge!

I had to Old Yeller a friendship that was based on a lot of falseness. I hate it when I invest time and energy into someone only to find that they're not at all what I've thought. I won't air someone else's dirty laundry, but I do wish that I could make some friends around here who don't have any huge skeletons in their closets. I'm bummed about that one. It left me feeling confused and more than a little naive.

I think that we're going to try to move to upstate NY next. We have a little over a year before that can happen, but I am excited about the idea of going back to Ft Drum. They have great rock climbing, the Adirondack mountains, and most importantly, it's in between our families. We won't have to miss weddings because of ridiculous plane ticket prices. I'll be able to hang out with my brother and watch my niece grow up. I won't have to live in constant fear that something will happen to Shell's parents and I won't be able to say goodbye or even pay my respects.

Roscoe was placed a few weeks ago. I'm happy for him but I hope I never see him out and about because I don't think I would do so well at holding myself together.

I've been trying to get into shape. I'm not out to lose any weight but I think it would be super duper if I could tone up. I have been especially fond of our little rebounder. It's really fun and it'll leave you sore for days if you're not careful. I discovered that one morning after I overdid my workout. I could barely walk.

That about sums things up.
