Sooo... doodley doodley doo. That is my mood today. It's a beautiful day, and it also happens to be my day off. How lovely. :)
I had the flu earlier this week... and I'm fine now, except my voice is crackly and raspy. I sound like a person who's been smoking 3 packs a day for 25 years. ;) It's pretty funny, actually. At work I have to constantly be talking to and checking on customers, and all day yesterday my voice would rasp and crack in mid-word or mid-sentance. Ha. Sick once a year... that is my track record. The weird thing is, although I felt achy and blah, I didn't really mind being sick for a few days- it was a good excuse to really rest and take a break from life. Now that it's over, on to greener pastures. :)
So there's this guy. NO, not like that, you silly goose. He's more like an advice dispenser that happens to currently be in my life. The wise (much) older brother that I never had. To protect the guilty, I think I'll dub him Mr. Wise Guy, because one never knows how often I could be referring to him in the future. Last night, Mr. Wise Guy said that it seems like I have issues trusting. People and God. Ok, Mr. Wise Guy, why don't you hit the nail right on the head!! Don't beat around the bush at all... but you know, that's what I appreciate about him. I really don't like it when people don't tell me the truth or they tell me a nice version of the truth, which in fact, makes that truth not very true after all.
I don't want to be a distanced, independant, non-trusting person. I think I need to take some time to figure out how to trust. I don't think I've ever really learned how, and my habits have now developed to such a point that I'm realizing that although I can't go back in time, I need to find a way to move forward.
Do you ever know that you're very young, but you feel so old? Yeah... me too.
I've made an executive decision on how I'll spend a lot of my days off this summer. There are so many lakes and hiking trails and state parks within an hour of where I live... instead of being lazy and wasting beautiful warm weather, I'm going to spend a lot more time enjoying God's creation. Better eating habits, better exercise habits, better life habits. I'm ready.
