Mama Mia!

I went to this movie tonight, and I really liked it. I really liked the music, and the storyline made me laugh. What a tangled web. I even got tears in my eyes at one part. Rarely do movies touch me strongly, but stories like this do, because to me, life is so sad, with a little mixture of happiness in it. I know some can look at life as Happy with a touch of sad...I guess I never have been one of those people. Not that I'm pessimistic...I think it came from growing up and having my father always tell me that I'd have a lot of sad in life, and a lot of "boring" so to enjoy the happy and "fun" moments when they happen. Guess it always made sense to me. But boy, when the happy "fun" moments happen, I really savor them now. Especially having my dad gone now...really reminds me to make the most of it.

I start school on Monday...it's coming quickly. I'm not quite ready. I'm sad I will be away from Aspen so much. I hope I get through it all quickly, so I can enjoy watching Aspen Twila grow up. She's a sweet baby. I'm lucky to have her.
