Sreepy

Hiya.

I'm exhausted and possibly incoherent right now. And, blah! I feel gross. I ate a veggie burger (bad idea #1) then did a Jillian workout (bad idea #2) at 10 pm (seriously?). Maybe I'll be glad of it tomorrow :)

I haven't blogged in a while, mainly because I have literally been going nonstop since the last time I blogged. For the most part, life has been redundant. Work, clients, class. However, there have been some exciting things to go on of recent:

#1- My friend Holly got hitched and I was a bridesmaid. Woot woot!! It was in a beautiful, beautiful Methodist church. My question, why don't the Churches of Christ have stained glass?! Priceless comment from my grandmother in regards for her 23 year old granddaughter being single, prompted by this occasion: "Always the bridesmaid, never the bride." She's always been encouraging :)

#2- I have made some new friends at work, aging from 6 mos-6 yrs. They're awesome. However, I did stick my hand in poop last week checking for a "dirty." Surprise...dirty! Just to let you know, I'm not dumb enough to stick my hand too far down. This stuff just came too far up. TMI, I know. Sorry

#3- There has been recent familial reconciliation. I've regained five cousins, four of them under the age of 13 and the other being their mom. A. maz. ing. I realized that maybe I can expect things to get better sometimes instead of thinking things will stay the same/ bad. Now I have some of my family back :)

#4- One of my wheel bearings is shot to pieces. I got home and my dad literally said "Your wheel is seriously about to fall off." I could feel it wobbling the last time I tried to drive. Father's Day came at a very appropriate time. God love the man, he's seeing that it gets fixed.

#5- Since my bearing is shot, I'm driving Mom's Envoy. Bam!! Hello big vehicle that's fun to drive, but nauseating to fill up with gas!!

#6- I'm working with a 70 something year old man who has been on a feeding tube for a year. Hasn't tasted food...IN A YEAR. Ponder that thought for a second, and then thank God if you are able to eat and enjoy the sensation of taste. Anyway, I've gotten to witness this man light up at the thought of improvement and the ability to eat a milkshake :) He was even ecstatic about the thought of pureed pancakes. Gross, one would usually think. Optimism and appreciation, this man has!

Now I'm anticipating the arrival of Ms. Stephanie Ammons and a trip to a cabin far away from here. Yay for good times to come!! I'm loving things right now!! My summer isn't much of a typical summer, but I'm one semester closer to graduating. Sadly, whatever tan I had...I've lost.
