| There Is a Time For Everything!!To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven: A time to be born, And a time to die, A time to plant, And a time to pluck what is planted; A time to kill, And a time to heal; A time to break down, And a time to build up; A time to weep, And a time to laugh; A time to mourn, And a time to dance; A time to cast away stones, And a time to gather stones; A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing; A time to gain, And a time to lose; A time to keep, And a time to throw away; A time to tear, And a time to sew; A time to keep silence, And a time to speak; A time to love, And a time to hate; A time of war, And a time of peace. ~~Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 | | |

| I will type up a post about my b-day later because tomorrow I leave for Atlanta (come back Sunday)...then take 2 finals and leave the following Wednesday for TEXAS!!!! So, yah the next couple weeks are kinda crazy So if the post doesn't have happen soon, you'll know why Ya'll have a great week!!! I graduate in less than two weeks!!!!!!! | | |
| I haven't updated in awhile because life has been crazy!!! I should be doing homework right now School is insane, especially since it is the end of the year!!!!!! Not much more is going on...I have been working a little (for my parents) but no real big events have happened.
I guess the only big news is that I'm graduating in 3 weeks!!!! (at least that is when I'm done with school ) and my 18th birthday is in a week and a half (April 29). So, I guess there are some "big" things going on in my life...I just haven't had much time to think about it all. I'm excited to be graduating but things won't really change for me. That's a good thing...I'm excited to live at home and probably will go full-time next year to NSA (but I don't know that for sure....my parents and I are still trying to make some decisions on what to do). And, yes pretty soon I will be counted as an "adult." You know all the things that I really ever wanted to buy, I could when I turned 17...I guess now I can make my own medical decisions and not have to have a "legal guardian" sign every form I fill out but I don't know....yes, I know I'm down-grading turning 18 and graduating....Give me a few weeks and I'll be really excited!!!! Right now, I have to much other stuff to worry about (ie: papers, reading, homework, etc.....) Ok, well enough of me rambling...Ya'll have a great week!! I promise I'll get excited soon  | | |
| Ok, I don't have alot of time because I'm leaving to pick up my mom in Spokane. (I hate this thing...I had this whole post typed up and then lost it :) But...I just want to encourage ya'll not to take anything for granted! At the beginning of this week, my biggest worry was my finals...by the end, that was the least of my worries. (They did go well...well, at least I did the best I could :) I finished my finals and went up to Spokane with a friend for a couple of days. Wednesday morning I called my grandma to see how some test went for my grandpa. She told me he needed a triple by-pass. They ended up doing the surgery this past Thursday. It all went very well!! My grandpa went home yesterday and I talked to him today. Praise God that everything went well!!! My mom was already down South with my sister to get her liscence. My mom stayed and my sister came on home. On our way to pick up Gentry from the airport, I was in a big car accident. (I wasn't driving and it wasn't the fault of the girl who was.) After the shock of the accident wore off, I realized how blessed I was to just be standing here. The weirdest part of the whole accident was I could feel another presence in the car. Even though the whole car was getting torn up, I knew nothing was going to happen to us. God is awesome! Nobody was hurt and God reminded me once again how ill-equipped I am to "run" my own life. God is in control!! That is such a comforting thought, when you think about how you do not have power over whether or not you are standing here. My life could have been taken, but for some reason God didn't take it. I'm glad He is letting me live :) But, remember that He is in control! | | |
