i don't even know

I started this blog post yesterday and couldn't find the energy to finish it...I think after I wrote the title I took a two hour nap. That was after a 16 mile run...that just seems unreal. I didn't run the entire way...in fact, I think that 16 miles was a little too big a bite for me to chew so to speak. After not having a long run in 2 weeks, I should have started back a little slower...and my body is telling me that. Hopefully by tomorrow morning it will be a bit better. I ran in my new shoes as well. Me gustan mis zapatos de tenis neuevos.

I am currently listening to a program on this website www.hos.com. A friend put me onto this website over a year ago...I don't always listen to it, but it is free on Sundays. Sometimes it's a little out there, but today is a lovely mix of jazz...I love me some good jazz. :) Plus jazz just seems to perfectly fit my mood right now, and I always feel like jazz fits perfectly with fall.

I'm still not happy with the concept of cold weather, but I am still working on it and trying to be positive about it.

Church was really good this morning. B talked about God's promises, and it just really put me in an introspective mood and a mood of desiring to spend time with Jesus. I am going to do that as soon as I get done with this blog entry.

When I got home, I watched Pollyanna with B and S and it was fun. Even though it is a fairly sad movie, it is still soooo good. I am contemplating making hot chocolate again. I have some interesting ideas of things to do, so I'm thinking that might happen here soon.

This has been a lovely and restful Sunday. I am really enjoying just relaxing. I have a fairly chill week ahead of me with fall break on Thursday and Friday, so it is pretty much going to be a nice week. I am looking forward to the break, and to having some alone time with God. Hopefully I will end the week with a much clearer vision of where I am going with my life.

I realized last night when I was planning my schedule for next spring that I only have to take 10 hours to graduate...so scary!!! I am going to take a light course load...only 12 hours...so that will be nice. Maybe I will be able to get them all on a T/R schedule and have 4 day weekends. That would be fun. :)

As scary as graduating is, I am looking forward to being in the real world, having a full time job, paying bills, having enough money to pay bills. I guess I'm ready for something different.

I just want to leave you with something B said in church this morning: Whenever you see a rainbow remember not just God's promise that He will never again flood the earth, but also remember all the promises He has made to you because He is faithful to those promises.

Easy.

I'm listening to Pandora right now, and the song that is on is Love Song . I'm not sure what exactly that has to do with my life at the moment, but thought I would share it with you all. In fact, I feel rather at a loss as to what I should say as I sit here eating sweet potatoes. I had a lovely run with my roommate, B, today. We both decided that it is much more fun to run with someone than to run outside alone...not to mention smarter as our neighborhood isn't the greatest. Running feels so awesome now. I am getting new running shoes tomorrow, and I'm really excited about them. The lady at the store let me go out on the sidewalk and run back and forth to test them out when I went today to look, and they just felt really amazing. Switching Subjects... I have never really had many guy friends. I'm not sure why. I think part of it had to do with the fact that for a while I was really scared of men in general. Then I went through a men disliking period (I refuse to say

learning to savor

I was asked today if money wasn't an object, if I didn't have to work, if I could do anything in the world, live anywhere in the world, what would I do? I wanted to give her a thoughtful answer, a truthful answer, so I thought about it. If I could do anything what would I do? My heart leapt within me at the thought. It's one of those rare opportunities where you just allow yourself to dream for a minute of a perfect world. What would that world look like? I knew within myself what I would do, and I did my best to express it to this lady. I would have a house on the beach. It would be a safe place, a resting place, a refuge. It would be open to anyone who wanted to come. I would have tea every afternoon with my friends. I would cook and bake. I would work in my garden in the backyard. I would spend hours in communion with my Beloved. I would take walks on the beach, watching the sunset. I would sit on my front porch and soak up the day and night. I would savor life, and I wo

I say Hi!

I have discovered the secret to avoiding awkward situations... things are only awkward if you make them awkward. Think about it. We take our cues from the people around us. If someone else is trying to make you feel awkward, and you just ignore it and go on with life...then they will stop. I was in a situation tonight that could have been awkward, if I had made it that way, but I choose not to. As a result I ended up having a great conversation and was very encouraged and uplifted from it. Anyway...this is going to be short because it has been a very long day and I have a lot of homework to do tomorrow...so tomorrow is going to be a very long day. We finally covered Philippians 3 in Bible Study tonight...so excited to move on. Also, I am greatly enjoying playing chess with a good friend...we are having about a weekly match up. Good times!! I'm getting better, so we'll see if I'm able to eventually pull off a win. Funny how God grants little desires of our hearts. I always k
