SO my blog, it's been so long work work work. But I will now try to blog once a week if for no one else that reads ....then for Julie. =)
So last night after we played tennis five of us went to baskin robins to get some ice cream and jonathan started asking random get to know you questions to all of us.... Let me just say I really had those questions. You know the ones that are like describe youself in 7 words... yadda yadda. I feel like those things make me take my guard down and people can see who I really am, which is kinda a terrifying thing. Not that I have really incredible juicey secrets. See I have no problem telling people I'm close to stuff like that, but to share things with the friends you talk to maybe once a week, it's just hard. So anyway we did it, and for the first 15 m inutes I really just wanted to run away, I tried hard to take a long time and maybe i wouldn't have to play.. that didn't work.
I must admit it was refreshing to here things about peoples lives, their passions, fears, best childhood memory and what God is doing in their lives. It was a lovely thing to share quality time with people, some who I may never see or talk to again after July, and some who I may be in touch with the rest of my life. Whatever happens I can honestly say, It was a great moment, to be in the moment, and see the beauty of the moment. =)

Blabbering thought
Yesterday at work i was getting bored and usually I'll sing or something but I decided shoot you know... I'm gonna pray. So I started praying for a bunch of things, People, family, places, and Haiti came to mind. I remember the seeing a few Haitians on tv worship and how that was so beautiful to me and I thought "when the storm hits, messes us up, changes our world, do we worship?" I know my first response is usually isn't usually thankful, and my situation isn't usually my world world literally being torn apart.
I was a busy kid yesterday after work From "Sherlock Holmes", to Taylors surprise Birthday party, to girls night. Three really great and quite diverse groups of people. On the way home from girls night I see that change is wanted, I just don't know if it's wanted enough to change. Tough. Half the time i feel like the things I write aren't complete thoughts... hopefully that will get better soon. That's all for today.
have a great one! =)

Post dentist
So yesterday I got my wisdom teeth out, they didn't completely knock me out, but i was pretty drugged up. This morning when I woke up my mouth was pretty sore, and I'm really not looking forward to the pudding, jello, applesauce, milkshakes, or soups, only because i can't enjoy the taste and have to swallow it all. What's the fun it that? Might as well not eat if you can't enjoy it. =)
I am, However, ready to get out of the house today. Choir practice at 630, we're singing Sunday whooo hoo!

Hello Bloggers!
Well hello everyone, as of now the only person following me is Julie, so Hi Julie. I thought about starting a blog awhile back. Baily Dodds said I should so everyone will know what I'm up to when I'm in Australia, so here it is.
Today I was at work feeding a sweet baby her milk and rocking her and thought I have stuff I should blog. As her big beautiful blue eyes were dozing off i thought to myself, I may never see this sweet baby again after I leave. I had questions, When she grows up will she get picked on? Be the popular kid? Become heart broken? Disappointed? Angry? I dunno but in this moment I know I'm holding this pure, beautiful, innocent child of God who hasn't experienced any of that. But it dawned on me, the same God who is with me in Australia will be with her as she gets older. What an extraordinary Concept! What a great big God, i try to think of how big God is and I have NO IDEA, not even close of what an unfathomable God we serve. I am, however, very excited to continually lean more and grow more and become more amazed everyday.
Tomorrow morning I get my wisdom teeth out... eshh. So thats all for now folks. more to come? I sure hope. =)
