It's been a long time...

So, I've been crazy busy for the past couple of months and haven't had time to update.
There has been so much going on that a fully detailed account of everything would take too long.
I realized my last post was on June 1!
Here's a basic summary of everything that has gone on in The Farcht Lane.

JUNE
We finally moved into the house.
Moving is a never ending process.
Still has pictures to be hung and boxes to be unpacked.
It's a great home and I'm thankful for so much space!
I love decorating and buying new things to make this house a home.
I promise I'll post pics when this place looks more "complete."

Spent some time in the hospital at the end of the month.
Things can only get better from here.
I wouldn't have survived without John.
Dave is lucky to have such a wonderful brother.
And, of course, my fabulous friend Christina.
I love you, Janoy!

JULY
Dad came out for an emergency trip.
I'm thankful for such a wonderful family.
I went back to KC for a week.
It wasn't as relaxing as I had hoped, but it was good to be there for awhile.
Mary & Brian will always be close to my heart.
They are both such incredible friends and offer so much support!

I've been going to an IOPMH group.
These people have become a HUGE part of my life.
Each and every person has a story.
I wouldn't know what to do without them right now.

My volunteering is on hold for the time being.
I truly miss the girls at Dress For Success and helping women there.
I want to go back soon, but there are a lot of other things I need to get straightened out first.
You have to take care of yourself before you can truly help someone else.

AUGUSTThe girls and I went tubing down the Salt River.
It was certainly eventful...
Memories made and times never forgotten.

Lisa and Christina have been my saving grace on many days.
Co-workers is far too small of a word for the bond we have.
These girls have made me smile through tears and hugged me when I was in pain.
Words cannot express my true feelings for you both.

Lately, I have been "shown" who my authentic friends are and those who just around when times are good.
Here's the difference:
"I can tell you're having a bad day. I can be at your house in 10 minutes."
or
"Where the hell have you been? What is your problem today?"
I think those two examples sum up a lot.

So that is my basic account of the past two months.
Wedding planning is on hold...until I get my ass into gear again.
Dave will be home in September and I can't freaking wait.
He has been so supportive from a million miles away.
I cannot imagine spending the rest of my life with anyone other than him.
I love you, blue bird!
I promise to post pics of the house and my art work soon!
I've turned the extra room into my own little "art studio."
I fucking love it.

XOXO, Allie
