So I've been home for about a week and a half. It's the first time I've sat here and done NOTHING. I mean, I've slept, watched tv, played on the computer, and just RELAXED. Probably helps that I know I shouldn't be spending money so I haven't been going out much.
It's been relaxing though. What I don't get is why is it when you're about to leave, THEN things get busy? I decided a few days ago that I'm heading back to good ol Ktown early; next Thursday to be exact. I wasn't put on the schedule at the BBA here and I need to be working, so I'm letting Regal own me for the rest of my break. I also have another paper to write that I need to do during that time.. anyway. I'm leaving Thursday, and here's my schedule until then:
tomorrow: Ann's funeral (Dave's mom. keep the fam in your prayers please). and hanging out with Mrs Jen Thiele!
Sunday: church and family cookout
Monday: dinner with the BBA girls (holla!)
Tuesday: visiting Lisa and a movie with Monica and Brian
Wednesday: heading to Indy to stay at Cora's.
Thursday: peacin out to Knoxville and workin the midnight.
And among that time I need to hang out with Tabby, see Robbin and Dakota, go by Dad and Brenda's, go see the Clouse's one more time, and try to squeeze in another Katrina/Emilee time. holy crap. BUSY.
Things have been good though. I'm upset I can't make it to Mimi's wedding or Daniel and Cara's (incredibly sad about that one since I won't be able to see everyone!!!!), AND I don't get to see my Sox play at all. Although, it's been nice to actually WATCH a game.
Speaking of the Chi-Sox. What about that PERFECT GAME!!!?? YEAAHHH!
PUT! IT! ON! THE! BOARDDDDDDD!!!!
I suppose that's all.
Oh. and Thanks to Mr Brent Bradley, I'm addicted to Lost. (I dont know if that's mentioned at all in the last one). I went through the first season in a few days and the second in a few days as well. pathetic. I need to watch the third season. our internet sucks so I can't watch it online.
Okay. that's for real all this time.

why all the pain?
Apparently I suck at updating this thing. Things have just been crazy.
Classes are finally over for the summer, technically. The GOING to class is over, however, I still have two more papers to do: Stats and my part of the Lit Review. Thanks to the wonderful economy though, I won't be working too much while I'm home on break, so apparently I will have a lot of time to work on those. It makes me nervous that I won't be working for so long. I have bills to be paid and I hate, absolutely HATE relying on my mom for help. I know it's just something I will have to rely on God to get me through and I know everything will work out, it just makes me really nervous. Especially since I was planning on putting some of the money I made these 4 weeks towards Puerto Rico. It will all work out..
Other than that, I think it's just been work and babysitting and trying to get everything together and finished. It's been a busy Summer. I can't believe it's July already, then again, it feels like it should be later. It's crazy to think I will be home for 3.5 weeks then will come back and start TEACHING! holy crap. Let's not think about that.
Hm. Have I mentioned how freaking excited I am to see Bryan Greenburg? For all of you who don't know who he is, he is Jake Jageilski on One Tree Hill; my absolute favorite character and tv show. He's a musician and he's playing at Schuba's in Chicago. He's also in the movies Prime and Bride Wars.. just to help you out at placing him. I'm stoked. And Boys II Men is tomorrow! HA. now that will just be fun to go to. I'm excited to be home and hang out with my friends in the HMD.. it's been too long. And of course the family cookouts as well. I've also decided today that since I'm not working, my days are going to be spent at the beach aka the Dunes. Once again, excited.
So I started watching Lost too. I'm hooked. Finished the first season in 4 days. That's RIDICULOUS. Me and Chad went hiking yesterday and I was in survivor mode thinking, FRESH WATER! every time I saw it. Ha. It made the hike even more fun.
anyway.
So Becky told me yesterday morning that Alex Coker's mom passed away. Alex was one of my preschoolers in the ECLC the first year I was in there (LOVED that kid). She died of a pulmonary blood clot. Her name was Stephanie, dad's is Heath and then they have Alex who's 7 and a baby girl named Ziva who's about a month old. Just keep them in your prayers, please. I just cried when Becky told me, I can't even imagine what Alex is going through. Right before I went to bed I emailed Health, got ready for bed, was praying for them all and broke down. I don't think I've cried that hard in a LONG time. Gary died of a blood clot and it just brought back so many memories of that day and the weeks after and all the hurting that went on and watching my mom especially go through it all. Everyone wrote on Health's wall to stay strong, but I told him he didn't have to be. I HATED when people told me, 'be strong for your mom.' HATED IT. How was I suppose to stay strong? I was hurting too. I told him it was okay to not be strong, but he needed to be strong in the sense of not forgetting of Alex and Ziva after everything today (today was the services). Kasie was gone at school after everything happened and I was older, so I could take care of myself after everything with Gary. But I just told him not to forget about them and not to forget to take care of himself too. I just didn't know what else to say, and I know there's nothing really TO say. Just pray for them.
I don't really know why God does the things he does at times. I know He wants us more than anything and Heaven is beyond our comprehension so being with Him is better than being here, but why all the pain that has to go with it? It just sucks. Plain and simple.
Well, I opened up my Stats file to work on that and ended up on here instead. Funny how that works. But now I need to lay my stuff out for work tonight.. I get to work the midnight of Harry Potter! HA. I hope people dress up. As of Friday it was in 3 theaters.. I don't know if we've opened another one. It should be good times.. But that needs to be done, I need to make sure I have everything packed and don't forget anything, and I need to wash my hair and head to Chelsea's because she's cutting it! Excited.
Peace out friends.
