Just shy of half, try 5 months...

It's February 10, 2011.  I can't believe it's February 2011.  This month of this year has lots of significance and thinking about it for too long makes me want to cry.  I've been looking forward to this month for a while now, actually over two years to be exact.  What I didn't realize two years ago, is that February 2011 would hold even more meaning now to me than it did then.

Today marks five months exactly that I've been home from the mission, which blows my mind.  My trainer and a few other missionaries from my mission hit their one year mark last week. Again, I can't believe how quickly time has passed.

It never ceases to amaze me how well our Heavenly Father knows us, not just collectively as a people, but as individuals, and as me, Christina.

Really, February already!??!

I can't believe January is over and the semester is one third of the way done!  It's just crazy to me!  But I'm happy about it because it means Corey comes home soon!  So exciting!  It's just over a month until he returns to San Diego!  So weird that's it's almost been two years!

Today it's so beautiful and sunny outside, and yet it's 0 degrees.  Yikes!  I don't get it!  How can it be sunny and yet so cold?!?!  It makes no sense!  Rexburg is crazy like that, but it's not just here.  Back in Oklahoma City they're having a blizzard!  And just 3 days ago it was in the 70s.  That is weird!  I kind of miss that about Oklahoma... one second it's warm and the next it's freezing.  I really did love the blizzard we had in 2009, but that's probably because it's the only blizzard I'd ever seen and I didn't have to be out in it.

Countdowns - One more month and Corey will be home, two more months and school will be out, three more months and I'll be in Mexico!  :)

An Unrelenting Longing

Earlier this year, I blocked my parents from being able to text or call me and from seeing my social media. I had prided myself for years th...
