so far today i have...
worked a 7 hour shift
listened to both Josh Groban cds all the way through (that's a first)
driven through snow
taken advantage of my gym membership for an hour and a half
gone to the library (got a few books on cd so that i have something else besides music to listen to at work)
looked forward to my weekend - 18 hours and counting
done the laundry of three girls
cleaned the living space of those same girls (ok, so i'm one of them)
contemplated the direction of my life
drank chocolate milk
thanked God for another day
and it's only 1:30...
bedtime.

I've been thinking about how life can change so much in a matter of a couple years...
Most of my old friends - the ones I have known forever - are married.
That is, four have "tied the knot" in the last year, and three of them
are what I would consider best friends. Funny, two and a half years ago
I thought I would be the first one to go...and I almost was! Scary. I'm
soo glad that didn't happen, and it's not that he was a bad guy or
anything, it's just that I have changed/grown (I'm sure he has too)
so much
in the last couple years, and now I know that God had a different plan
for both of our lives. I don't know why but I always thought that I
would be married at twenty...just like my mom. Gosh, she was pregnant
at my age! That's weird. I'm glad I'm not pregnant at this age...or
married, for that matter... Alright, so I don't always feel that
way, but for right now, I'm content with being single. Like I said,
that could change at any given moment.(ha ha). I'm such a girl. 
Anyway, alot more has changed, but this is just something that's been going through my mind today.
(btw- another one is marrying in march. seriously, when will this
madness end? well, it's fun when I actually get to be in the wedding...two in the last
year.)

I want to live like there's no tomorrow
I want to dance like no one's around
I want to sing like nobody's listening
Before I lay my body down
I want to give like I have plenty
I want to love like I'm not afraid
I want to be the man I was meant to be
I want to be the way I was made
(well, in this case it would be woman)
I'm still breathing, everyone I love is alive and well, the sun is shining - it's an amazingly
beautiful day outside, God is continually showing me how amazing and in control of my life He is, I
have eternal hope in my Savior....the list goes on and on!
It's a good day - life is amazing. God is showing me how much time I spend dwelling on the temporary worries of this
life when I really have SO much to be thankful for! Seriously, try dwelling on the positive. It works wonders.
"...whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is
pure, whatever is lovely,whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent
or praiseworthy - think about such things."
I know, it's truly profound

| I'm teething. It's so incredibly painful.
I hate cell phones right now. In particular, I'm speaking of mine. I
hope you don't take it personal if I don't reply to a text message,
because my phone just all of a sudden decided to screen them for me (as
in - I only receive certain ones). Why? I don't know, but it's sure
annoying. Then there are the times when I think you're ignoring me...
it's so unnecessary, but what can I do? Except stop texting altogether... 
Well, I'd talk your ear off a little more about messed up
communication, but my one-year-old brother and I are meeting to chew on
those little rubber rings they say help ease the pain. I think he
just appreciates the sympathy.
