I'm not trying to be just another normal girl, in a messed up world. I'm living for Christ, not afraid to fight for what's right. While I'm waiting, I will serve You, while I'm waiting, I will worship, while I'm waiting, I will not faint, I'll be running the race, even while I wait. I will move ahead bold and confidant, taking every step in obedience, while I'm waiting.

Did you know that I sometimes use my twitter page to figure out what I blogged about and what I didn't? Pretty silly, but I twitter so much it usually works out well.


I said I wasn't going to start a book for a while and that was true for exactly three days. But it was wonderful and fulfilling because it was a book that I've been looking for in stores since 2004 and I found it on that trip to B&N with Sophie so long ago this winter. It was a wonderful book. Heart-wrenching in some parts and I often wanted to give some of the characters a severe upbraiding because of the way they treated the person whose story was the book. Ooh it made me so very mad, and it was hugely involved for me because the book was woven thickly with the struggle of abortion. It was a good book and another that I would recommend. I finished in in 2 and a half hours. That was the second half of my feeling of satisfaction and triumph. I was out of my rut. The author and title: Francine Rivers, The Atonement Child.

There's been quite a bit of rain this past week and I'm glad that today has been entirely sunny. Spring is here and I would like to enjoy the warm weather before it gets to the summertime overpowering humidity. I definitely had a bit of heatstroke on Sunday. My body doesn't acclimate to the weather very well. For some people, it's only one weather extreme that bothers them greatly, hot or cold, but for me, it's both. I do think I hate being cold more than I hate being hot, but when I am overwhelmingly hot and cannot cool down, my mind definitely switches opinions.

Yesterday I slept for 20 hours. It was so annoying. Irritating. I had four hours of consciousness. This was May 4th, Tuesday. I was awake from 12 am to 1 am, then I slept from 1 am until FOUR pm. I was awake for two hours until 6 pm at which time I fell asleep until 11 pm. I was awake past twelve, giving me almost four hours that I was awake in the days 24-hour period. Dreadful. I was able to wake up easily this morning, which is probably because I had that overdose in sleep, but honestly. I wasn't THAT overtired from anything.

Today I'm hoping to get job applications from places but I'm not sure yet. I have the urge to procrastinate but I won't. I really just need to collect my thoughts and make a plan, because I'm almost certain that's the reason for my feeling overwhelmed and unsure where to begin.

It's sunny. I'll take sunny and apply it as best I can to my mood. Now that's a plan.
