Oh yeah, I'm actually supposed to do something here... :)

Ok, so, I'm remembering now that when one has a blog, one must actually post to one's said blog.

Well, let's see here...

Recently I...

-Finished reading A Voice In The Wind (Mark of the Lion #1) and it was amazing! It took me several months to get to chapter 9, BUT, then only a week to read chapters 9-35... it was fantastic. I feel like I have much to learn from Hadassah's unshakable faith and serving attitude. Anyway, the end was so heart-wrenching I had to immediately start the next book, Echo In The Darkness, which I'm really enjoying so far, but haven't been taking much time to read, which I need to work on :P

also...

-Had to make a last minute trip out to Tennessee because Mama Fay (my grandma) passed away. I loved getting to see all my family and showing Dan my roots, or "place of our birth" as Zach (my brother) called it. It was really hard to say goodbye to Mama Fay but I know she is with her Lord and Savior and I can rejoice in that. We only got to stay from Fri night to Mon afternoon so we didn't get to go up to Kentucky to see Mom's side of the family, but my two aunts and my mom's parents came down to see us on Saturday so that was cool. I definitely feel like we need to go out there more, I hadn't been in 4 years, and that was way too long and this trip was way too short.

-I did get some really awesome antiques from Mama Fay's house, for now some of them are packed up safe and the rest of them are at Mom and Dad's house, but when I move into a new house in a few months where I don't have roommates to entrust my things to, I will take some pictures once I get them all up "decoratively" around the new house, wherever that may be! :P

-Oh yeah, and, I got fired. I knew it was coming, I only had about 45 minutes of work to do everyday and I was there for 8 hours... not so bueno. So when I came back from Tennessee I was at work for about 30-45 minutes and my boss comes in and says it's not working out and they're going to scale down and hire someone for part time. Why didn't they ask me to go part time? Probably because they knew I hated the job, (let's be honest, I hate being bored). It was a mutual separation.

Now I am home {PTL -shh don't tell! ;) } and getting caught up on a lot of things. Knocking things off the to-do list left and right, there's just so many things that need to be done between the hours of 9 and 5, it's silly.

-Getting ready to go to Hawaii in two weeks...and ya, I'm gonna leave it at that
