Monday was a gorgeous, sunny day, high 68*. Today, Wednesday, it snowed! high 28*. Much of my life has been this way the past few weeks. I think I have my week all mapped out and all of a sudden I end up following a completely different path.
February 3, 2008 we bought this car.
Fully loaded, navigation, leather seats, alloy wheels, HEATED seats, etc.
February 6, 2008 I returned it.
I have certainly decided I am one of the most unique individuals on the planet. Who returns a CAR?!?!? Thankfully, we had purchased it at CarMax and they had a 5 day return policy.
The reason for the return? I felt like I was driving a mini van. Somehow I was missing the 4 kids and a soccer game. Plus, I had a sudden urge to go buy blonde hair dye, so I could fit in with the other suburban barbie moms. News flash, I have no kids and will never be a barbie.
So back to my ol' faithful Jeep Cherokee until I find the "perfect car."
February 14, of course, was Valentines Day. Caleb and I never make a big deal about it. I made a nice steak dinner and he bought me roses. The day was nice. Too bad I had to work. :)
February 23, we went to Blairsville. Lauren, Ayla, and I got together to put together Ayla's wedding invitations!!
Tomorrow, I have to work. Unfortunately I have already written myself a 'to-do' list that could last me a week. By the time tomorrow is over, the list will have only increased. With the housing market at such a low, my job just gets busier and busier, stressful and more stressful.
This weekend Caleb and I have plans to put a ceiling fan in our living room and paint the kitchen! I'm excited!!
I'll try to be better about posting......
I love this song by LeAnne Rimes
God only knows how I've needed a friend
Who can see through the boldness and pride
Someone strong enough I can put my faith in
Someone willing to let me inside
So be a man and be my man
[First Chorus:]
I dare you to need me
Like nobody else
I dare you to feel me
Like you've never felt
I dare you to want to want
To wanna be good to me
Baby you've got your reasons
Dangling from kite strings
But you can open your hands, let them fly
Oh I know you wont always say and do the right things
Oh but some things are worth a try
So if you can, be my man
[Second Chorus:]
I dare you to know me
Like I've never known
I dare you to show me
That I can be shown
Dare you to want to want
To wanna be good to me
Tell me I,
Tell me I'm the one who deserves you
Oh and every time, every time you know that you want to
I dare you
[Third Chorus:]
I dare you to hold me
Like you never will (again)
Kiss me and leave the world standing still
Dare you to want to want

People aren't confused by the gospel, they're confused by us. Jesus is the only way to God, but we are not the only way to Jesus. This world doesn't need my tie, my hoodie, my denomination, or my translation of the Bible, they just need Jesus. We can be passionate about what we believe, but we can't strap ourselves to the gospel, because we're slowing it down. Jesus is going to save the world, but maybe the best thing we can do is just get out of the way. Casting Crowns

Congratulations on your child-less, mini-van-less, unique life! Enjoy it while you can, missy.
This is the last night alone. I'm so annoyed cause I had all these big plans for tonight and they went down the drain all because I didn't have glue stick.
