Our new couch came! I'm so excited and it looks great! It's the same size as the one that we're getting rid of, but for some reason my living room looks a lot bigger. Maybe it's getting rid of the stupid coffee table we had?

I ended up having to move my old couch out of the house by myself! What a chore that ended up being- but on the good side I got my arm exercises done for the day, LOL! I managed to twist that stupid thing through the dining room doorway, through the dining room without killing the ceiling fan, fireplace, or Grandfather clock, out the french doors and across the patio, and then into the carport. WooHoo! It only took about 20 minutes. Now I want to set up the coffee table but Sean, after bitching at me for taking the couch outside (what, am I fragile or something?), told me that I shouldn't put it together. Whatever. He'll be home tonight with Ian (school called and he vomited so I went to get him) so he'll have plenty of time to hang out with his tools.

I was seriously unmotivated to do my work for class but I'm feeling more into it now. I think the fact that I'm behind on my Valentine's Day soap was pressing on me, but I finished two batches. The craft fair is Saturday so I still have some (gulp!) time left to finish up. I'm not expecting a big rush on them anyway  so I should be fine with 4 batches.

I've been thinking a lot about my new job and I am so calm I'm almost nervous! I was talking to my friend Kim today and I was finally able to put it in to words: I feel faith. I know that sounds pretty straight forward and easy, and it is. I've always spoken about faith, how I wanted to have it and were to find it, but this year (so far) has been amazing. I truly feel it in my very soul, like a constant pressure within my heart. I am never without it and, although I may lose sight of it at times, I know just where to go to pull it out again.

I am so lucky. I am so lucky to have the friends I have, the family I do, the knowledge I've been given, and the happiness that is mine every day.

I am content with my life and I am content with myself in it. I am finally, finally happy.
