the ipod was in the little black car when i got in for an errand this afternoon. i was going to surf some music and starting listening to some random stuff. then i passed fernando ortega.
i needed a good dose of it. i like the volume loud when i'm by myself - today girly and i played fernando pretty loud. i had a million things running through my head. my errand turned out a flop. so we were back in the car with the ipod sooner than expected. it was just enough - i backed it up a few songs, turned the volume even higher and cried most of the way home. i told her i wasn't concerned who saw me at stoplights or how messed up my makeup was becoming. mommy just needed a good cry. it had been awhile since a good one and by the time i got home it was all good again. i am married to a good man.

yesterday turned out to be an unexpected day off of sorts - the spur of the moment shopping trip ended up lasting all day. at the expense of my mom and friends schedule - ahh!! thanks. coming home that night with 3 tired, hungry kids - i realized that reentry back into reality takes some adjusting, even when there is no time to readjust. it was worth it on both ends. fun day - good night.

i've got an hour and a half left - then its an appointment with dark chocolate & peanut butter & him ~
i'll end with one of fernando ortega's songs. its not 'his' - he just sings one of the better versions of 'i will sing of my Redeemer' that i've heard. remembering its best played alone & loud -
'i will sing of my Redeemer, and His wondrous love to me; on the cruel cross He suffered, from the curse to set me free. i will tell the wondrous story, how my lost estate to save, in His boundless love and mercy, He the ransom freely gave. sing, oh, sing of my Redeemer, with His blood He purchased me - on the cross He sealed my pardon, paid the debt and made me free. - p.p. bliss
