And it don't stop

--Candice

ain't that the truth

"Believers are never pictured in Scripture as mighty lions, independent and self-sufficient; rather, they are sheep who are dependent on their Shepherd for His provision and protection."


just thought i'd share something i read today.

And so it begins....

So matty and I have back to back tattoo appointments today so I hitched
a ride with him.
I've had some major time to kill.
I have been lurking around the shop and doing some homework in the car.

T-minus 30 mins till my turn

patience-endurance

do you ever feel like your in one big giant waiting room? like your whole life is continually waiting on something else to happen to get where you want to go? you have to wait and see if your name is going to get called. but i'm talking about waiting for years and years. and while your waiting you have to do the most humdrum boring thing you despise the most at times. not being able to be with or do the things you love and long for the most. and everyday is another day you have to keep going moving to get closer to what you want with zero guarantee or promise you'll see all your hard work come to fruition. and every dream and quest you went for always seem to crumble in front of your very eyes. with only few promising words every couple of weeks to keep you in high spirits you get to wake up to this everyday knowing full well its going to be a long journey. the scary thing is is that you have full control (to an extent, it all really depends on what The Big Guy has got planned) on how this could all turn out. if it doesn't happen
its all on you.
your efforts weren't enough.

i get so discouraged some days.
i get so restless at times.
sometimes apathy sounds like the safest place to hide.


i dont mean to sound like a whiner. i know there are faaar worst situations to be in. and that i am blessed beyond comprehension. i just needed to vent. pray for the Haitians.

To hmmm or to mmmmm?

Strawberry Moon Pie. Should I?

seems to crack it.

Break time

feliz cumpleanos

so this last weekend was grand.
3 day weekend to celebrate the laborers and it was my birthday.

lets recap:
i woke up to find my car tagged with love and candy all over it (thank you jesse & b)

















then i came home to a surprise in my room.
went something like this:
geoff: cover your eyes
me: (eyes covered) are you going to run me into the walls?
heather: (laughing at me)
geoff: haha maybe
(door opens and a wave of heat hits me)
me: why is it so hot in my room?!
heather: (laughing even harder from down the hall)

candle filled room, my fav, and a couple new sweet paintings. it was so freaking adorable. ok, ill stop gushing.

later that night we went to the angels game which at first was pretty boring.
first 5 innings no hits and no one on base.
but then it got super entertaining when this really intoxicated chick and her 3 friends took a seat in front of us. she was so incredibly loud, vulgar, and obnoxious that everyone around her was complaining to the ushers.
Here she is taking a rest in brenda's lap:
















Brenda's reaction:















Drunk chick's sidekick boy-that-is-a-friend was also drunk and texting someone thee grosses text messages ever. geoff and i weren't trying to be nosy buttt.... he wasn't being very discreet and we got a kick out of reading them.















he signed off each text with: FUNTASSSSIII (fantasy)
ew.




















all in all, it ended up being a great time. G. A. is the man, hitting a homer and Torii had a awesome catch
