Solid As A Rock (Lol)

Ok, so I'm sure that I've probably lost a lot (I know I'm delusional, but I like to imagine that had a large following) of followers, due to my lag in posting; however, I have had nothing but difficulty with getting set up with the new Internet Explorer 9, in order to resume blogging. I'm still not set-up...I'm just borrowing someone else's computer at the moment (you'd think that doing this would've occurred to me a long time ago, but, no, all book sense & no common sense). I was initially so resistant to upgrading my browser. Yet my fans (1 friend, to be exact) began pleading to me to post something new, as I just kind of left everyone hanging since the last update on my love life. Well, I finally caved-in and decided to upgrade my laptop. When I attempted to download IE 9, not only did it fail, but I was also unable to even open a browser (the litte blue internet "e" icon)....and, I have been without internet every since...approximately a month, I believe. You'd think that would put me in panic mode and that I wouldn't know what to do with myself, but the time spent with my new Beau has more than made up for this relative minor frustration (you know, everything seems so much nicer when you're in love).

Now as for the new man:

We are still going strong. He's wonderful...brilliant, has wisdom (not being redundant here b/c true wisdom is distinct from this world's standard of intelligence & comes solely from a strong relationship with God), patient, and compassionate. Some would say that he's the yang to my ying, but since I'm a Christian & such talk is contrary to God, I'll just say that he compliments me ever so well! Although similar to me in many regards, in other regards, he's total opposite. Whereas I tend to be Type A & keep my own neuroticism at bay by planning & lists, he is a let's savor each moment and take each day one by one kind of guy...this of course makes me laugh, since I've always claimed to be a Matthew 6:25 girl. Yet, being in his presence, his relaxed demeanor calms & comforts me and allows me to see that I've got some more relaxing to learn how to do before I can continue to assert that I live by Matthew 6:25; however, he's not perfect. & I love this fact b/c it allows me to be me & to not feel guilty about my shortcomings...instead, he inspires me just that more to improve (& this has always been a daily personal goal of mine). But, let's not get it twisted (lol). I bring some good stuff to the table as well, and he seems to recognize that...he even verbalizes this endlessly. He seems to really value me in a way I've never experienced before. I believe love is more than a word, & now, I believe (Than you, Heavenly Father), I finally know what it feels like! I could blog a whole lot more, but I think that this is a good stopping place for now...please be patient with me on the long pauses between posts, as I work out my browser issues & stay tune.
