Getting a Head Start

In just about three weeks, Tim and I will celebrate our 14th wedding anniversary. Last year, we completely forgot about it. This year, I decided to get an early start. Since recently becoming a reader of thepioneerwoman.com, I have been inspired by her writing and thought it would be fun to recall my own journey to Mr. Right. It's somewhat less dramatic (Tim never wears chaps...shrug) but fun to recall just the same.

So, for your reading enjoyment (maybe), I will begin posting tidbits of my experiences in matters of the heart. Tim was not particularly happy that I started with the guys who came before him. "Why can't you just start the story with me?" I have a reason -contrast. If you don't see the "ugh" of the search, you might not fully appreciate the "ah" of finding you know who.

The posts will be on amiesbraindump.blogspot.com and I will post here whenever a new entry is added (hoping to average a couple a week). And, of course, this page will continue to offer the usual updates on the crew and silly anecdotes.

I don't have a title for this story yet but your first entry is there waiting for you. Hope it's worth your time.

Heeelllllooooo. Where is the next entry for your story? Sheesh, you get me hooked and leave me hanging. I want to tell you that I think I was liked by a cow as a teen too. I about fell over laughing on that one. Such imagery. Okay, so hurry up, I live to be entertained. Hence, why I need more children, it's like turning the channel on tv. Hmmm, I think I could go somewhere with that metaphor. Gotta run. ~~Kristi

Very interesting! I totally got hooked on the Pioneer Woman when I came across a link to her love story. For about 2-3 days I was even less productive than usual while I read all of her entries.
