Well, I feel like it has been awhile since an update. I feel however like I have nothing insightful, funny or interesting to say...but I feel like just updating for whoever reads this :)
Things in my life are grand. Just peachy. The Lord is truly blessing me which I am incredibly grateful for. As I ponder upon the fact that we are in NOVEMBER (how the heck did that happen?)...I realize that 2011 has been a really tough year. But after facing some hard trials, I came out a better person in the end. So as I put the past behind me I can finally start to look toward the future with hope and optimism. And let me tell you, it's looking pretty good! ;) So in the end, I am grateful for my trials, challenges and struggles. The Lord DOES keep his promises and I believe he truly does comfort us during our time of need. I have definitely felt his strength and comfort during my time. I am still struggling with the passing of my Grandma. I don't know why, but lately it has been really hard. I find myself thinking about her and then crying out of no where. I hate it because I don't want to be this hot mess anymore. I am happy with my life and I know she is in a better place. But I just have these moments where I miss her. I'm tired of the tears. Thankfully I have people in my life that allow me to reach out to them when I need to (even though that is hard for me to do). It is comforting to know that they are there. I hope one day I can truly find peace and not be sad anymore. I know I'll see her again. I know she is looking down on me and I hope to make her proud. She was one special lady and meant so much to me. I love her with all my heart. The holiday's won't be the same with out her. But I know she will be watching over us :)
So after all my fun adventures this summer, I've pretty much been working. A LOT. Work is great. Teaching is going well and I love my students. Disney is awesome. So I'm pretty much a busy busy busy bee. Which is the story of my life! I'm trying to figure out what the next step is in my life...So that has been on my mind a lot.
Lastly, what has been making my life sweeter these days is I have a fella :). He truly makes me want to be a better person and my life is better because he is in it!
I am feeling so blessed :)
More exciting things to come!
xoxo
