Catchin up

There are so many people in my life I'm thankful for. I am so blessed by God to have such good friends. People who are literally irreplaceable. I am so dumb sometimes and I seriously take them for granted. People who I don't see that often that when we do hang out or talk everything just picks right back up like we saw each other yesterday. There are people who genuinely care about me and when I sit and realize that it's such an amazing feeling. And I have so many people in my life that I sincerely look up to. I sat around a table with 3 women that I look up to probably more than anyone a couple of weeks ago after church and I listened to them talk about things that they struggle with in life and I was just so encouraged. They are going through so much, all of them are at such difficult times in life with everything that is going on and they just sat there and talked about how much they trusted God. What amazing women. All I could do is listen and think that I wish I could be like them. They KNOW that God is going to take care of them and their families no matter what. I can barely cope with the things I'm going through and they just seem so minuscule compared to what they are dealing with. And it was so awesome to watch them all comfort each other. Being there was truly a gift from God.

On a different note, tax season is over in 2 weeks and I will be jobless and broke again. If anyone knows of a receptionist or office job that they'd let me know about I'd REALLY appreciate it. I need to find one ASAP. Being broke is never something enjoyable.

In other news... God is amazing. Seriously thanks for praying for me for my test. It was so great. I was the second person finished and I'm confident I got at least a B if not better. It was great. I really thought I was going to bomb it. I worked my ass off for like 3 days and for some unknown reason I seemed to have retained all of the information that I looked at. It was totally God. I picked John Piper's Desiring God up again and I've been reading that (which is amazing because I haven't been able to read anything since tax season started). Such a great book. I really want to start Searching For God Knows What by Donald Miller, but I'm not sure if I'll have time to read two books right now. I'm probably gonna try though ;). I went to the movies and FINALLY saw 300 yesterday. Dave Todd was right. It was AMAZING! One of the best movies I've seen in a LONG time. I talked about it for hours after it was over. Everyone would switch topics and then out of no where I'd be like "But OH MY GOSH that movie was SOOO AMAZING!" And it was great hanging out with Craigory. That guy is the best. Really. He was teaching me to Salsa dance in Meijer. I'm so glad we're friends.

EXCITING NEWS... I have 3 weddings to go to this summer. I'm pretty stinkin' excited I'm not gonna lie. I just found out my cousin is getting married to his girlfriend in May. And then Brynne and Adam are getting married June 19th. And MY SARAH is getting married June 30th! I can't wait for their weddings! They're going to be amazing :). Those are going to be some beautiful brides ladies and gentlemen! So I'm going shopping on Saturday for new clothes and accessories! :) I can't wait!


Well that's all for now. :) HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!!!!
