Maybe In A Past Life

The sun leaked in through the window and I knew today was going to be the most beautiful of 2010 thus far. Any other day, I would be overjoyed to hop out of bed, take Shea outside, and enjoy it. Today, I wished for death. Having limited sleep due to the inability to breath, all I wanted to do with my stuffed up head was sleep.

Shea began to stir, and I was nearly positive that more sleep wouldn't happen. But, everyone is always saying dogs' have a sixth sense. Maybe they do. Shea got up and walked around for a little, but then came back to bed and laid on my feet. I think he was trying to telling me not to worry about him for a little and get some sleep. He could tell I needed it. Anyone who could have seen me would have known that!

What a nice boy, right?

He let me get some more sleep and once I got going, we went outside for an extended period of time. He deserved it. Once I was able to muster up enough energy to drive, we went up to my parents house. Lucky for us, my mother had picked up my grandmother to visit for the day. Always a good time.

With that, I'd like to enrich all of your lives with Grandma's view on the relationship Jeff and I have.

Apparently, this devout Roman-Catholic woman, believes that we have all had previous lives. Odd isn't it. I thought that was not a part of our belief system. Anyhow, she believes that Jeff and I must have known each other in another life. Specifically, she thinks we hated each other. And this, our marriage and love, is in fact God setting us straight. This is our punishment from our previous life of hatred toward each other. Jeff agreed that this was probably true. He is certainly paying for his past live's sins now.

Grandma believes that she was actually an asian princess in another life. Maybe that is where I got my eyes!
