Random thoughts- ready. set. go.
Cashews- a weakness of mine.
Princess Beatrice's hat- REALLY? Talk about ugly. And what is it about British weddings and all the women wearing hats? Is that some tradition? PS very impressed by how much the Christian faith was incorporated into the wedding- I hope they actually meant it, and it wasn't just for "tradition".
Yesterday I was at Sav-a-Lot (favorite grocery store, just ask Erin =) and in the check-out line there was a DOLLAR pregnancy test- really? How accurate can those be?
The other day I was driving and a little boy was hanging out of his car window with a stick pretending to shoot me. Future soldier?
New favorite song- Restless by Audrey Assad. Listen to it.
I'm trying to work on not gossiping and speaking more "loving" words. I'm really good at sarcasm, and while I find it funny, I know sometimes it can be hurtful. As Chandler from Friends says, "I'm not so good with the advice, can I interest you in a sarcastic comment?" =)
Target- another weakness. I went in to get cereal, wheat thins, etc. Walked out with two new pairs of sandals, white strips, and many other senseless things. I seriously have to limit myself to going once a month.
Work is going well. A little girl I take care of is going "home" this week and I'm having a hard time with it. I just love her so much -so many people are used to me being her primary nurse they joke that I'm her mom. If they only knew that I actually am interested in foster care and adopting someday and would take her home in a minute=) I pray everyday that she is in a family that loves her and loves God. I know God will take care of her. My parents got to "meet" her when they were here which I loved.
Ran today. Awful. Can't breathe, get cramps. Guess I'll try again tomorrow. My goal is to hike a 14'er this summer (a mountain that 14,000 feet high....kind of a big deal) Don't know if I'll pull it off because a) my back doesn't like having backpacks on for more than an hour b) I'm out of shape c) that's really high into the sky and I'd probably get lost or struck by an avalanche or eaten by a bear.....;)
Things I'm looking forward to- May, going home to see my grandparents and friends and meet baby Abram! June, my friends Carley and Alison are coming to visit. July, weddings and two weeks in the midwest which means lotsa cottage time and sun and seeing people I love. And then September is Tim and Jenny's wedding. Yay for summer and love =)
That's it! Bye =)
