blessings and dishwashers

before we moved into our house, about 10 years ago, we lived in a rental house in this same neighborhood...WITHOUT a dishwasher. when we decided to purchase this house & make it our home, i was ecstatic because it had a dishwasher. now since dishwashers weren't original to these 1960's houses, this one came with a portable one. yes, that's right, every time you wash dishes, the dishwasher must be rolled across the kitchen & hooked up to the sink.  and the noise level of the wash cycle is probably about the equivalent of a train coming through the kitchen!  but, i LOVED it!  it always worked and it made my life easier. our friends & family mocked it but i never cared. i was happy to have it.

now i tell you all of this to say, my wonderful husband bought me a new dishwasher and installed it...like for permanent. it's efficient, super quiet, convenient, & even beautiful. i didn't ask for it-i never complained or even had it on a wish list. he just wanted to make life better for me. i am extraordinarily blessed.

blogging

so when i was working, i had a blog for my band and i kept it up - for the most part.  i hadn't really missed it too much until recently.  so i thought i would start up a new blog.  i just want a place to write out my thoughts, talk about fun things that are going on in my family, and share awesome things that GOD is doing in my life. i hope that all who choose to read and follow me through this blogging journey would always have "a pinkdiggity day".
