like the tide

Love is tricky. It is never mundane or daily. You can never get used to it. You have to walk with it, then let it walk with you. You can never balk. It moves you like the tide. It takes you out to sea, then lays you on the beach again. Today's struggling pain is the foundation for a certain stride through the heavens. You can run from it, but you can never say no. It includes everyone.

Yes, this is a stand-in cheater picture.

But you read about the devastating loss of my laptop, right? I deserve a freebie...

Karyn, Will and I went to the coast on Wednesday.

It was a day filled with gummi candy, jelly beans, singing in the car, picture-taking, breakfast for lunch, deep fried candy bars, rain, running with our eyes closed, writing in the sand, walking in puddles and also, grieving the loss of my laptop.

Have no fear, because I was only without laptop for maybe 24 hours. I bought a replacement yesterday because I just can't go without one.

So yay! And Will gave me his code for Lightroom, the Photoshop program (Awesome!) so I was experimenting with the crazy functions this morning..love it.
