Being Busy

I've been told I need to blog again. I have a blog basically done just waiting for pictures, but my life has been a bit on the crazy side of normal.


My life:
I worked 6 days last week. Four 10 hour days, one 5 hour day, and one 9 1/2 hour day.
My sister got engaged.
I was asked to be a maid of honor.
I was asked to take the engagement photos.
I bought a plane ticket right after it changed to a higher price and right before it went higher still.
I'm finally seeing work done on my baby after 4 weeks in the shop.
I cleaned my room, but you'd never know, 'cause I gotta clean it again.
My computer is on the brink of a blank screen of death. And it maybe in Do Not Resuscitate mode too.
I might have a warranty on it until July but have no idea where the warranty papers are. I went to college. And somehow, looking through all my papers wasn't that high on my list when I was packing to come home.
I still have photos from Virginia of Laura and Rod and Mike and Mindy to edit and get to them.
I don't have any disc space in which to save said photos.
I must have done something mean to my CD writer on my computer because he's not talking to me.
My sister ended up in the hospital getting a MRI to see what is causing her migraines.
I'm trying to make some big, life changing decisions.
I taught junior church and forgot until the night before that it was Mother's Day and I should probably do something with the kids to that end.
I leave in less than two weeks to see my sister, who is moving out of her house the weekend I come.
In five days I have to go to court at the ungodly hour of 8 in the morning because of "careless driving." *heart rate increases to a dangerous level*
My lamp shade broke- disintegrated more like it.
I've had a confusing schedule of training at work.
I had a bear of a time trying to find coverage at one part time job.


All this to say here are somethings that make me happy:

- I get to see my sister in less than two weeks.

- I get to be a maid of honor.

- I'm wearing pink shoes.

- My God is providing for me in unexpected ways.

- I have Dove chocolate.

- Both Aubrey and I don't work this weekend so we get to hangout the whole day.

- I live five minutes away from the coolest shop invented for Barbies.

- I got to see and love up my nieces on Sunday.

- My nieces love me. Or they love that I will be a jungle gym for them.

- "I am the thorn in Your crown, But You love me anyway. I am the sweat from Your brow, But You love me anyway." (sidewalk prophets)

- Speaking of Mother's Day, I have the best one. *Sticks out tongue*

- I get to take my first engagement photo session.

- It rained for two days straight.

- I love spinning in the dark with the rain on my face.

- The sun is back.

- When I fall- God picks me back up.

- I have a huge stack of library books to read.

- My baby might be fixed before I leave to see my sister.

- I'm wearing jeans to work.

- "For no word from God shall be void of power." (Luke 1:37- ASV)

- It's Friday.

- Everything is green now.

- Grace.



Looking on the bright side,

  1. When you say "my baby might be fixed...." referring to your car, you could have called him by his name..... since we're trying to figure out a name for "your baby" (think camera).... Just saying. (=

    I know life is crazy, but I'm super happy we were (FINALLY) able to spend a Saturday together. And thank you for taking me to "Ti~Ti's Armoire;" I loved it!! (man, the spelling is hard to find..... esp. knowing just the pronunciation of the French word....) I'm super happy we were able to chat too... good stuff.

    BTW, love the pictures too!! But I don't recognize where most are taken.... help??
