Time

So today makes nine months that Shane is gone. I've said this before..it's strange b/c sometimes it seems like just yesterday but other times it seems like another lifetime ago. I guess it's because my life has changed so much and in turn, I have changed.
A good friend told me this morning that the strength I've shown throughout this ordeal is an inspiration. That made me feel so good. I definately feel like a tougher person after going through the cancer battle with Shane and getting through his death. If anything, Shane taught me to live life to the fullest and that's what I've been doing...and it makes me happy. Sure, some people will judge me, but obviously those people didn't know Shane very well b/c if they did, they'd know he'd want me (and all his family and friends) to be living it up, not moping around.

Aside from being the 9 month mark, today also marks a year that Maxwell passed away. He was the coolest dog ever and if it weren't for him, I probably would have never given in to Shane about getting Maggie. I was always a cat person, but Max definately proved that dogs are far superior!

Ok, now in my quest to be more positive/happy and less gloomy/sappy, here's a video I took the other day of Jacob and I flying his recently purchased stunt kite!
