pieces of me: April 2011
http://annaelyse.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 24, 2011. My life is a little scattered lately. and by a little, i really mean a whole heck of a lot. there isn't much that feels normal. or stable. or consistent. and the things that are, i'm clinging to them for dear life. like a wood plank in the middle of rapids. or what i assume rapids would feel like. this is what i was surrounded by saturday night. In the midst of chaos, i'm clinging to hope. I'm clinging to it with everything i've got right now. And that my hope is secure in him.

Monday, January 31, 2011. Last night at church. Photo of emri and ben : jewel anderson. I remember standing there when emri was in the midst of deciding if ben was really not going to let her fall. i looked at her with tears in my eyes and wanted to scoop her up, off the banister. and hold her safe. as if i knew better than her DAD. but i just stood there, watching the scene unfold. There was something in that moment that struck me. i KNEW ben was going to catch her. ironically, once last year i. To beli...

Thursday, December 23, 2010. Merry christmas from THE MAN*. Half our team is in kc, the other half in luxembourg. every year we take a christmas picture so they know who they're talking to. or who they're frustrated with. depends on the day. ;). Friday, December 10, 2010. Sometimes i search out some big grand thing. i create some incredible moment that will top all other moments. the BEST.EVER. if you will. And those are great, and i really, really love them. but i also love the normal ones.

pieces of me: 2011/29 & expectations
http://annaelyse.blogspot.com/2012/01/201129-expectations.html
Monday, January 02, 2012. Well happy new year! I used to hate that my birthday was on the same day as the last day of the year. no pressure. not only the weight of "did you live the last calendar year to your full potential? But also "how was this last chronological year? Gah for a girl who thinks all.the.time. and gets all caught up in memories (and regrets) it's hard. it always has been. i'm hoping it won't always be. In the unmet expectations-i got to experience so much more than i could have thought ...

pieces of me: so, apparently i'm an extrovert
http://annaelyse.blogspot.com/2011/06/so-apparently-im-extrovert.html
Wednesday, June 22, 2011. So, apparently i'm an extrovert. I mean, i've never doubted it before, but i've loved my alone time. just never realized how balanced it was with my talk my face off time. But i did life giving things, like reading, relaxing, cleaning. normal things that don't drain a person. and then i remembered my one measly little ten minute conversation. for me, someone who could easily carry on a conversation for excess of 5 hours, this was a big deal. i never realized that. So basically i...

Wednesday, September 28, 2011. Pickin' me a boquet of dogwood flowers. The last night i was there looked around the room. kids a few years out of college. retired generals who had fought in multiple wars. wives. sisters. mothers. brothers. friends. all playing the craziest game of catch phrase ever. harassing each other like best friends. like family. because we were. in the military your friends ARE your family.
