My life is b(l)ogged.

Ramblings.

Sometimes I have to remind myself to breathe. Taking 18 hours is more than I anticipated.

Got to talk to Caitlin on the phone Tuesday night after playing phone tag for literally 3-4 weeks. Love and miss her so much!

I have a new goal--to drink as much water as Abby on a daily basis.

90% of life is just showing up. -I don't know who said it first, but my Dad always says it to me.

Troy's football season is like a roller coaster. Uppp and down and Uppp and goinggg.

I meet with my Monday night class 10 more times and then the semester is over. And I am considered a Senior. A Senior. 10 times.

Katie's a CHI O!

I miss not sleeping and studying all night with Laine.

My light in my room stopped working. It made that weird popping noise. I knew I needed a new bulb. Luckily I had an extra. Unscrewed the light fixture. Lo and behold--its not made for a standardized bulb. Its made for a "candlelight" sized bulb. Really? Guess I'm without an overhead light until maintenance comes/I buy a unique bulb.



I mean, everyone has extra candlelight light bulbs
around the house, right?!

The death of Jesus was the death of death.


LOOK AT THAT SWEET FACE!

Trust Me and refuse to worry,

for I am your Strength and Song.

You are feeling wobbly this morning, looking at difficult times looming ahead,

measuring them against your own strength.

However, they are not today's tasks--or even tomorrow's.

So leave them in the future and come home to the present,

where you will find Me waiting for you.

Since I am your Strength, I can empower you to handle each task as it comes.

Because I am your Song, I can give you Joy as you work alongside Me.

Keep bringing your mind back to the present moment.

Among all My creatures, only humans can anticipate the future events.

This ability is a blessing, but it becomes a curse whenever it is misused.

If you use your magnificent mind to worry about tomorrow,

you cloak yourself in dark unbelief.

However, when the hope of heaven fills your thoughts,

the Light of My Presence envelops you.

Though heaven is future, it is also present tense.

As you walk in the Light with Me,

you have one foot on earth and one foot in heaven. -Jesus Calling
