Sick, once again and pretty much colored all my coloring pages so here I find myself writing on my blog.... sneezed like 13 times just now. ugh. I am wondering what it is I should be writing about, really there isnt much to tell. Its kinda just been normal day to day stuff going on. Me and now my one roomie have alot in common though I am a little more extraverted then she is I bring out a little of her random side. The other day she came prancing and I mean prancing into the room to tell me she had got the oven to start! haha I will never forget that moment. there are many more moments that have just been a blessing in connecting with her and learning how to live with someone else!
But I am still trying to figure out what all I should say... what all I should update you on. This heat keeps us inside and its pretty much going to be like this for the next couple weeks. I know back at home its been pretty cold, you can have some of my heat if you want.
well... thats pretty much all I can say... im stuck inside, sick, with the day off and already gotten to much sleep so I cant take a nap. God will get me through it, I am going through the book of Acts so I have been able to fill alot of my time in prayer for others and just going through Gods word! suuper good!
well Good morning, and if I dont see ya, good afternoon and goodnight!
Love you all and I am praying for you!!

So,
It has been a while since I wrote, at least it seems like forever. Just a little update on how everything is going. Last weekend I went on a short vacation to Casa! It was wonderful to be staying in a house with couches and be a 5 min walk from the beach! Hopfully Ill be able to get some photos up on here or on facebook soon so you can see what it looked like. One thing though I got a really bad sun burn... lol a little less bad as my Miami sun burn if you remember that one. I did blister all over, not too bad tho :) (No worries mom!) It was great to ride the train there and back, I am sure I will be able to do it again, I know I want to!!
My brain status... well, Im hanging in there, I have never really gotten the home sick feeling before, but I skyped my mom and to my delight my Grandma was there as well!! I was able to talk with her, at that point I did feel very much so home sick. But it was good, my new roomie (not sure if I mentioned her) is soooo great!! she is just lots of fun. we are able to relate on many diffrent levels, and our taste in movies is pretty much the same. (Dad, we were going to watch the Sting but it wasnt working on Itunes, she hadnt seen it and was really interested to see it!! Im hoping I can rent it again and watch it!)
Well I wont say things are always easy but I am blessed with a glass half full mind and most of the time I can find the good in all situations. Pray though for my heart, and Gods leading in my life. There seem to be some doors opening, but also doors that are closing, pray that I am able to not try and force doors to stay open!
Love you all!!

Time Change
We have now moved back an hour, so instead of 8 hours ahead of you all I am now 7.
Its monday, the 9th.
104 degrees.
This morning when working with the kids we had a scavanger hunt all over the house! A little later a fed them lunch, around 12. The parents get home normally at 1230, but when it was around 115, I was a little puzzled... I sent them a txt and they said they would be home at 1230... I had to look at the clocks even my phone. Yep it said 115... I soon figured out that all the clocks had not been set back, and neither had my phone!! the kids had an early lunch and I had more time then I knew. :) silly silly me!
Last night before I went to bed I wanted to read something, I normally study my bible in the morning and after noon and so wanted to read something a little diffrent. The books I had where either a deep thinking read from John Piper, or a realtionship book (Boy meets Girl given to me by my loving mother) It was night time and I didnt want to read John Piper, my brain didnt want to wrap around such knowledge right at this moment. And I didnt want my head focused to much on relationships since it already does enough of that. I looked around my room, and for some reason I hadnt seen it before but on there shelf tucked in a corner was the book Captivating. I had heard lots about it from my sisters and the bible study girls, also its the book that the college group girls are going through. Thank you God! :) I went through the first chapter and I am excited to see what God shows me.
Well back to the kids, we will probably go swimming!! :D

PTL!
Dear all,
I wish I could write down everything that goes on every single day. I know that I could if I tried, but Im trying to limit the time I spend on the computer. I cant belive that this week is pretty much over, alot has been going on, heart stuff and God just working in my heart to show me so much. Pretty much thats whats been going on! Every day God shows me my need for him, and how often I try to rely on my own strength to do things. God is the maker, creator, he knows my heart, my desires, he knows what is best for his glory, and I am a fool because my whole life I have not realized that he is everything I need and I have not given it all fully to him!! I am coming through the path of healing from the past and looking towards Gods will for me. As I spend more and more time in his word his voice becomes clearer and my desire for him has grown and still grows to a fire of passion daily wanting more of him! So I really cant explain it :) I desire to fallow after him to give him the glory for the rest of my life, it is such a short time here, and I dont want to waist it on myself.
In the arms of His love!!
