In the meadow we can build a snoman
Well, I have had all weekend to update my journal and I am finally getting around to it now. Since I really don't communicate with many people outside of Nebraska, I figured that this would be a decent way to let everyone know that I'm still alive, (token response to someone who asks me how I am). Yesterday I went to the Creighton Men's

memories that cant be forgotten
seeing people happy and smiling
my hopes and feelings for you all
yeah, that'll do. ah well.
ok, now that it is my goal to have the longest post (seemingly) ever, i leave you with a good hymn that has to do with being thankful:
When upon life's billows
You are tempest tossed
When you are discouraged
Thinking all is lost
Count your many blessings
Name them one by one
And it will surprise you
What the Lord has done
(chorus:)
Count your blessings
Name them one by one
Count your blessings
See what God has done
Count your blessings
Name them one by one
Count your many blessings
See what God has done
Are you ever burdened
With a load of care
Does the cross seem heavy
You are called to bear
Count your many blessings
Every doubt will fly
And you will be singing
As the days go by
(chorus)
When you look at others
With their lands and gold
Think that Christ has promised
You His wealth untold
Count your many blessings
Money cannot buy
Your reward in heaven
Nor your home on high
(chorus)
So, amid the conflict
Whether great or small
Do not be discouraged
God is over all
Count your many blessings
Angels will attend
Help and comfort give you
To your journey's end
(chorus)
have a great thanksgiving everyone.
