Deanna on Board-Phoenix Edition
Im in Phoenix, which for some reason I keep transposing the O and E...But Oh Well. Im blessed to be able to take this little bit of time away and boy do I need it.
Im spending some time out here with my friends Richard and Robin. For those of you who may not know my Richard story. Richard was one of the first people I EVER met on the internet. I was 16 years old, on good ol dialup up late at night just trying to get through the next day and waiting on my new liver so I could live. I found a "Christian Young Adults" Chatroom on AOL and jumped in. I still remember the little side chat we had and from that day on we became friends. When I went into surgery for my transplant he was on my "to call" list for my mom to have people pray for me. I think thats when he realized I wasnt psycho.
Well 11 years plus later Hes married to a awesome woman named Robin, and has 4 kids. Somehow in a time like this when I feel like I need to run and be under someones Rock, they just seemed like the right place to be.
Robin is an amazing cheerleader, and I am throuroughly enjoying my time here getting to know her better. Their children are amazinig and their 3rd child Leah has seemed to take a liking to me. I call her Hunny Bun, and it makes her laugh. Alexander their oldest was born on my birthday and is such a sweet boy. Matthias plays shy but hes not which I think is cute. He drew me a picture earlier today. The baby girl Paris doesnt let anyone forget thats shes there. Shes so bossy to only be 9 months old! lol.
They keep apologizing for the noise of children running around and Leah wanting to play Barbie on the computer in my lap but to be perfectly honest this is the happiest time I have had in the past few months. Watching the kids play and just be themselves is so downright beautiful to watch. I want that in my life one day.
Im tired you guys. Not sleepy tired but an inside out kind of tired. Im really not sure what time it is anymore on this whole coast change thing. But truthfully, Im already starting to feel a little perk on the inside. Maybe just a visit to the desert was all I needed. I love it here so much I am already trying to plan another trip back.
Anyways I still have another day (hopefully two) here and I will keep you updated.
Thanks for listening to the first travel edition of my Blog which I will affectionally call "Deanna on Board"

Day 15, I hate fighting...like realllllly hate it. Id rather stop and regroup and remeet on an issue
Day 16 I'd perfer if we didnt go to bed mad at each other. Its a sucky way to start the next day. Hope your up for late night talks :-)

Day 22. I love the holidays, and Birthdays and wrapping Paper. I love the Christmas Rush and my house smelling like Christmas, which (if you may ask) smells like pies with extra cinnamon :-)

I cannot Deal with my movies not be in alphabetical order or my books not being organized (separate hardbacks from paperbacks, and aphabetical based on height) Its my thing.. let me have it. And evil stares go to those that think its funny to mess it up Desmond Demps and Jay Glover
