What A Difference a Year Makes

I haven't posted here in over a year. Life happens, you know. Last year at this time I was about to start back at General Dynamics after being laid off for two months. I was still single with no prospects of even getting a date in sight. Then around Thanksgiving (give or take a few days) I got into an out-of-the-blue conversation about classic rock-n-roll music with a man who was just a face and a name on my Facebook friends list. That conversation led to meeting the man who would become my best friend, soul mate, and husband. Two months ago I married Shawn Campbell. The ironic thing about this whole deal is that I met him online. I was very much against the idea of meeting men online through dating sites or whatever. I mean, seriously. You can get hooked up with some weirdos and you don't know what you could be getting into. But since this was someone whom I had some idea of his beliefs and what he was like based on his postings, I figured, "why not?" Isn't it funny how God works sometimes? :-)
