  • unearthed.

    God is unearthing a lot about myself and, let me tell you, it is not pretty. Here is something that I've been thinking about:  Why is it that whenever I sin, I'm the one who gets mad at God. I mean here I am sinning against a perfect God and I'M the one who is mad? Gosh, I'm quite the Jerk. I have no reason to be angered at the God who gave me life. I'm sorry.

    I am also finding out what I like.-
    Coming to a new school has been a pretty big change but it's been a growing experience, it definitely teaches me to rely on God a heck of a lot more. I realized I don't like Spanish all that much, and just because I went to Mexico last year doesn't mean I have to speak spanish, that's so silly of me. I have also learned to be myself and not who my friends are. I'm developing a personal style and I'm listening to different kinds of music. It's a lot of fun to be yourself!


    Last order of business- 
    I'm sewing again for the first time in a really long time and it's really exciting. I love having a creative outlet. During the move to Eagle Mt. my Mom found some really adorable vintage printed fabrics in our garage from when she was a kid ( I love how things from when my mom was in Jr. high school are considered vintage! heh heh) I plan on making a skirt, bag and re-vamping a few pieces in my closet to go with my new found personal style ;P This website http://www.burdastyle.com has given me loads of inspiration and lit a fire under my tush to get me sewing.

    Oh yes. 1 last thing. I totally found a pair of real cute jeans for 2.99 (free shipping too!) on sears.com. pretty rad, huh! It reminds me of the time I found vans for 99cents at Ross.

    and newly placed among favorite verses is Psalms 119:50 My comfort in my suffering is this: your promise preserves my life. NIV

    Reasons I love having the house to myself.

    My Mom and Mike are in Cali this weekend. This means Courtney and I have the ENTIRE HOUSE to ourselves. Why do I love this? Oh, I will surely tell you why. (In no particular order)

    Reason numero uno- When you are a minor living with your Parents, doing things in your own time, on your own schedule is a foreign concept. Which brings me to reason number one- Getting to do Homework when I (emphasis on the "I") want to. It's really quite freeing.

    Reason two- Peeing with the door open. I don't know why, I just really love do this. I used to do this ALL of the time when it was just my Mom, Sister, and, myself. When my Mom married Mike and suddenly we had 4 males living in our little, tiny house, the habit of peeing w/ the door open was quickly broken. (needless to say, I pee w/ the door open every opportunity I get)

    Reason 3!- Turning up my music as loud as possible. 'Nuff said.

    Reason cuatro- Making huge batches of caramel corn and eating it for Dinner and Breakfast the next morning. I don't exactly know why I do this, I always feel sick after and end up nagging Courtney about how fat I feel after. I'm pretty sure I do this just because I can....I don't even like caramel corn that much......But, I'm getting an impulse to make some...RIGHT NOW.

    Reason Mumbo Numbo FIVE - Last but certainly not least. having a nice bonding time with my Sister, woo hoo!
