two things you told me: November 2012
http://whyanothersunrise.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Two things you told me. Friday, November 9, 2012. I'm not sure where this post is going to end up, but it's my only outlet at the moment. I'm having an emotional evening . I am very good at blowing things out of proportion, giving them more weight and time and headspace than they deserve, letting them grow until they overwhelm me. That thing right now, sadly, is health. Or rather, a lack thereof and/or the methods by which you achieve it. Yeah, the twins don't eat sugar. Sounds so fun, right? Of all of i...

two things you told me: house heaven
http://whyanothersunrise.blogspot.com/2012/07/house-heaven.html
Two things you told me. Sunday, July 29, 2012. I don't think our house could be any better. Seriously. I have loved every minute there. I mean, the cat meows constantly and leaves hair everywhere, and there are more spiders/spiderwebs than I'm comfortable with, and one of my roommates alternates between country and metal, which happen to be the two genres of music for which I have zero appreciation. Our patio, where we grill out ALL THE TIME and have people over and tend to our garden. Boys who do yardwo...

two things you told me: struggle bus
http://whyanothersunrise.blogspot.com/2012/08/struggle-bus.html
Two things you told me. Friday, August 31, 2012. Of course it couldn't be perfect forever. Such is life. No, the house is still great. It's me that's imperfect. And we're all imperfect, yada yada, but this feels like me ruining something that could be and has been so special. I don't know where it comes from. I have never been unloved; I have doting parents who always encourage me, friends who do the same, even my bosses are extremely vocal in their positive affirmation. And yet I doubt. I say, "Well, th...

two things you told me: August 2011

Two things you told me. Sunday, August 7, 2011. A very present help. Today was the deadliest day yet in Afghanistan for US troops. Http:/ seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/nationworld/2015841246 afghan07.html. Mark is set to deploy there next month. My almost-20-year-old little brother who still doesn't wash his own dishes. Psalms 3:3 But you, Yahweh, are a shield around Mark,. Mark's glory, and the one who lifts up Mark's head. 3:4 I cry to Yahweh with my voice,. And he answers me out of his holy hill.

two things you told me: January 2012
http://whyanothersunrise.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Two things you told me. Sunday, January 22, 2012. I struggle with this with my parents a lot. Sometimes I just need them to say, "Yes, this sucks. I know that it sucks, and I'm sorry." But so often — and I do this too — when I start talking, they start proposing solutions or telling me that I'll get over it. And while what they're saying may be true, it's not what I need to hear. God is perfect love because he just doesn't do any of that. If we believed that the love that person had for us is the be-all,...

two things you told me: some days, y'know
http://whyanothersunrise.blogspot.com/2012/06/some-days-yknow.html
Two things you told me. Tuesday, June 19, 2012. Some days, y'know. Seriously, why does EVERYONE IN THE WORLD have a boyfriend. But still. SERIOUSLY. Some days, you know, it just feels like everyone is a couple. And they're bent on making sure you know it. Oh, sitting next to each other at dinner? But sometimes when you're single, it just feels like the world is out to shove it in your face. Then rub it around a little, like cake; maybe smear it in your hair, pat you on the cheek with the frosting in ...

two things you told me: the big move
http://whyanothersunrise.blogspot.com/2012/06/big-move.html
Two things you told me. Tuesday, June 26, 2012. I should be going to sleep, since I have to get up for yoga in 5.5 hours, but I'm procrastinating. Like always. I brought my first load of stuff over to the house tonight. (One of my friends keeps chanting "Bro house! I just can't wait for us to be moved in and done. I am all for processing, and I don't jump into big things carelessly, but c'mon, enough is enough! So yes. I just want to be in the house. Then I can remember why I wanted to do this in...And m...

http://whyanothersunrise.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Two things you told me. Thursday, June 28, 2012. What hurts most about Mark's recent actions is how he treats his family. This girl, this manipulative stripper whore bitch, is not his family. Neither is her baby, whom she allegedly cares so much about but whom she easily left in Washington to move to California with Mark on a whim. And neither is Mark's biological mother. You know why she's welcoming, you disgusting twat? Because she has no stake in Mark's future. It does not matter to her if he ends...

two things you told me: May 2012
http://whyanothersunrise.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Two things you told me. Thursday, May 31, 2012. The last week or so has been a good time for reminiscing, as it often is when I come home. Mark's home now, too, which is a wonderful blessing, but he's not really one for reminiscing. I've been reading through the Rose Wilder books, the series that follows the daughter of Laura Ingalls Wilder, who wrote Little House on the Prairie. Almost everyone read those books growing up, right? If I have kids, I don't want them to be glued to various screens. For ...
