What a week

Hey people. I hope your week has been a little easier than mine. My 90-year old grandma died Monday. She's the first close family member that's died as long as I've been around. It's not easy. She was like a third parent to me, we were close since the day I was born. Today was so weird...my dad, brother and I went to her house to check on things and clean some, and it was sad knowing that she wasn't there anymore. But I've prayed for her for a long time (she'd been in the nursing home) for God to help her get better if it was His will. But she got really bad this last week, and so it was the best thing possible. I feel fortunate to have had such a great grandmother who loved me so much and that was completely devoted to Christ. I know where she is now, and I know she's not in pain. I wouldn't wish for her to come back and be in pain again because nobody deserves to live like that. Anyway, I've been praying for my family and myself to have God's comfort and know that everything will be okay. And I must say that I'm the strongest in my faith than I have been in a while. God's presence has been incredible...he's really helped comfort me. I do hurt, but on the other side of things, this pain is only temporary. All pain is temporary. I'm grateful for all 16 and half years I got to spend with the sweetest, kindest, coolest grandma ever. :)

I honestly haven't been thinking about Morgan a whole lot lately...not on purpose or anything, but just the whole deal with my grandma. I came to the conclusion that there is no girl I've met that comes as close to being perfect for me than she does. I admire her for who she is inside. I think she's very pretty, but physical attraction has not been the most likable feature. She's just an all-around cool person, and I think she'd be good for me. I know she's not ready for a relationship, but I'm getting more ready. If nothing happens, that's okay...but if it does, that's awesome! As long as Morgan's still one of my best friends ever, that's all I'd ever want out of our friendship.

I put my edited Papa Roach cd in and I decided that even though I like the music, I don't like the lyrics (even if they ARE edited). And the same goes for 6 other cds of mine. It's bugged me for a while about some of the stuff I have. So I decided to pull cds I didn't feel comfortable with off my cd rack and hide them in the back of my closet. I just wanted to put them out of my sight for a while. People might think I'm squeaky-clean and weird, but that's fine by me. I'm doing what's best for me...so I don't really care what anyone thinks about that. So anyways.

That's all I've got to say. God bless, keep it real.

Mark
