Left behind
I feel left behind... Don't know how to explain it, well I guess I do but don't know if it will go to far. I feel frustrated that I'm not as close to a friend as I used to be. I feel that I'm being pushed out and replaced by someone else. It's an odd step to move from single life to married life. Though Mikhail is my best friend I still feel as though some of my girl friends are my best friends and it hurts when they move on. I've never liked this much. Always have had a hard time with moving on. It makes me feel "uncool" for lack of a better word. I could continue but just can't... so in saying very little that makes probebly no sence at all i revert back to my original feeling of - feeling left behind.

Life as Mrs. Garin
Life as Mrs. Garin has been nothing but pleasurable bliss. I think after being married now for 3 months I'm starting to embrace the role as "Wife!" Though I'm sure I'll ever truly get the hang of it I'm embracing it non the less and am loving ever moment of it.
Now some of you would say, "oh, 3 months, just wait till it's been 3 years. You'll be singing a different tune." Well, all I can say to you all is that you must have married the wrong person if you're singing that tune...
So, what's changed you ask? Well, budgeting for someone other than yourself and your needs is difficult. Trying to keep track of what your spending as well as the other person is spending makes balancing a check book on a daily basis hard. I look at my bank account and wonder, "what? I didn't buy that!? Who has my credit card number?" Then soon have to remember that I'm not alone anymore. But if that's the worst of it - I'll take that over anything any day.
Being a wife is amazing though. The idea of having someone love you unconditionally and loving that one individual unconditionally is glorious! It's love you can't have till your married; it's something you can't quite explain. I'm finally understanding the term "I love you more and more everyday!" It's true I do love him more and more every day. I want to be the best I can be just for him. I want to be Super Wife! ;-)
I'm excited to start my life with him and to invest my whole life in him! Keep God first and foremost in your marriage and you will prosper in love!
