I did something unusual.

I joined a soccer team for the summer.

Praise God.

I have a job. I will be working in a store that sells used baby things!

I'm excited.

And guess how I got the job.

Word of mouth. Go figure.

nannying

Being a babysitter of four young kids is a blast. Here's to learning even more about taking care of a household, besides laundry and cooking and cleaning!

I hope Nicole has a nice holiday:)

"dear" spammers:

I HATE SPAM.

This might get me into trouble, posting that, but it's the truth. Take it.

moving on.

Graduation is tomorrow.

Weird.

musings on the brain lately.

Some of the general thoughts going through my head, put to song.

St Patrick's Prayer

Christ be with me and within me

Christ behind me and before

Christ beside me and to win me

Christ to comfort and restore

Christ beneath me and above me

Christ in quiet and in danger

Christ in hearts of all that love me

Christ in mouth of friend and stranger

Christ in every heart that's broken

Christ in every joy and pain

Christ in every word that's spoken

Christ in sun and moon and rain

Christ in resting and in rising

Christ the Lord of all my life

Christ to guide me and to shield me

Christ protecting me in strife

It's been a while...

...and I don't even know if anyone even bothers checking here anymore. Well, if you do, I want to let you know that I'm still alive! I'm still jobless, I'm still searching for a job, I'm still learning a lot about myself and about God. I'm still learning a lot about trust, about using time wisely, about waiting patiently. I'm still learning about friendships and relationships. I'm learning a lot of things right now, and oddly enough, there is no other place I'd rather be. How can I say that? There is only one reason: because I know that God has it all in control, and nothing I can do to try to change where I am will change that fact. I want to be where God wants me to be, and I believe that is right where I am.

It is awesome to believe that...after struggling so long with it.
