intoxicating
i raced the train home this morning with the sunrise... and also home tonight with after church. I won both times... I love that stretch. It always makes me dream. trains make me dream, if that makes me a freak, i'll claim it. whatever.
Today felt like i could drive forever.
Hey, has anyone seen my weekend... i don't know where it went.
last week was in the rankings for one of the longest ever. I think we had a birthday every day PLUS St.pAtrick's celebrations. That's a lot of cupcakes, spilled milk, and sugar energy.
Friday: I hung out with LInds and met some of her " bests" as she calls them. I felt pretty comfortable in the group right away. NOt fake comfortable either... the good kind. and it made me feel like i was really good at guitar hero. :) I'll take it. I stayed at the house way too late and then slept way too much on....
SAt: a qUALITY day where i didn't feel like i did anything worthwhile... but acutally got a lot done that needed to be. ( sleeping included) Then it was off to Deephaven for some green fun. There was a lot of it. We were the talk of Old Chicago and the celebrations continued into the night until the couch and I made friends. SAt. night was fun... and nothing really regrettable... but it was also a sudden and unexpected reminder of how intentional I have to be in how i want to live and who i want to be. unexpected advances made by a close friend... I was almost too curious to leave... but i did, just in time. wow. wow.
Anyway... I drove home this morning with the sunrise and it was perfect....enter train :)
When i got home I finished all the lesson plans and additive materials for the entire week! Printed..and Nap earned.
Worked out
Church. missed it in the morning... then i missed solstice... so it was upper room... I was glad i went. I hadn't been there in awhile and it was a nice reitteration/wake up that i needed and wanted. I left feeling refreshed in only the way God can refresh me. and it's so stinkin easy.
and again.... on the way home... the train... and sprinkles... and sky colors and that intoxicting air.
also... i'm not going to be stupid. But today was one of those days... the rare kind... that i can't shake....when you haunt me. I'm not scared though. lives separate for reasons...but some days I'm still with you and that is what it is... and i am guessing that regardless of who or where... there will always be times when i am. the end. just is.
sometimes i get frustrated about my life and where i want it to be and where it is and how i don't know where the bridge is. It's easy to feel left behind... but i'm not behind, i am with them. and i'm going... day by day... getting somewhere. day by day.
music!
Ohhhhh tomorrow. BOSU ( hell)...work ( loud)....Deb and Chris's birthday outing ( beverages)...home ( immediate Sleep, hopefully)
Duet. 8:2
( " Help me to understand that sometimes you lead me on certain paths to humble me also and to see what is in my heart. Purify my heart Lord, so that you may take joy in what you find there.")
Let's see if i can make it through this week without losing focus. We'll see.
see you .
bursting! :)
