So I have decided that I have a lot of thoughts in my head and not a lot of human interaction to get them out so what better way to talk about things than start a blog! A wonderful new marriage, new life in New Hampshire, and new job have been overwhelming. I love my life and wouldn't trade it for the world but it's a little crazy to think about how many things have changed in the past few months. I may or may not stress out quite a bit, maybe have had a few minor breakdowns but I am so very thankful for my amazing husband who tolerates and understands my emotional craziness and I married into a wonderful family which is pretty helpful when you have to leave your own parents and move halfway across the country.
Mostly today I have been thinking about how lucky I am to have a loving and caring husband. I pulled a very uncoordinated move and ran my face into a door frame yesterday and have a quite painful and unattractive (unless you like bright purple eyeshadow only on one eye) bruise above my eye. Here is a picture for your enjoyment.
I have HATED going out in public the past few days because people who notice definitely stare a little. All I could think about while walking around though is how horrible it must be for women who are not in loving caring relationships to have to walk around trying to hide bruises. I tried to hide it with makeup and was unsuccessful. I am in a lot of pain when I sneeze and have to blink really hard but I can't really complain, it's my own fault, I could have been paying attention to where I was going and prevented this ridiculous bruise. It's been quite the joke to say that Matt hit me (mostly because of my new pink Yankees shirt and his bitter Red Sox blues because they will not be making the playoffs) but when I really think about it, it's not that funny. That really does happen to people. So mostly today I have been so grateful and so thankful that I have a husband that I am not fearful of, who I trust completely and love with all of my heart. I thanked God multiple times when I looked in the mirror because I have the best husband I could have ever dreamed of and I said a prayer for everyone who may not be able to say that. I also asked Him to remind me to watch where I am going in the future.
