Life has been here there everywhere lately. I can't help but smile. You have to take the good with the bad. And the happy with the sad. It just shows me how life is changing and how we're getting older. We only have one chance at this life that God gives us. We have to make the best of what's around us. I'm just happy that I'm with my family right now. As much as I hated coming back here I know it's where I need to be right now.
On that note...we had to put my dog Britney to sleep on Sunday. It was really hard on my family. (Especially me, my Mom, and my Dad) I know it's just a dog but everyone who has a pet knows that they become part of your life and your family. We've all been smothering Chloe the last few days. No new puppy for a long time. Too much going on. Rest in peace my baby Britney.
The Dave Matthews Band concert on Friday was AMAZING. I don't care what some people say. His concerts are not over rated and I will stand here and say that if you see him live that you will instantly become a fan. I remember why I love his so much. He played some of my favorite songs too! LOVED LOVED IT! I was dancing around like a crazy fool!!
I just got all of my suitcases down!!!! I'm going to start a little bit of packing tonight. Liz picked up my day shift tomorrow so I'll have all day to go shopping, get my Mani/Pedi, and pack pack pack!! I'm so excited. And just to help myself out I'm going to make a list of things I need:
FILM FILM FILM
Contact solution
shawl
sunscreen
I just can't wait to leave. This weekend is going to be really special for other reasons besides Lisa's wedding. It's just going to be a happy and joyful time for everyone.
I may not know where my life is going but I'm enjoying life right now. There was a moment at the DMB concert where I had a revelation. At the end of my life I'm not going to remember being pissed off about people that didn't tip me or any kind of dumb drama. I'll remember moments like conversations I've had with people, laughing, dancing around like a crazy fool, and seeing one of my closest friends get married. And that makes me happy. And that helps me see that I'm starting (very slowly) to grow up.
Well that's all for now. If I don't write again before I leave I will have a LONG entry and tons of pictures to share with everyone!! Be safe. I miss all of you. Once I get back I will be planning for my birthday weekend in Herrin and my 4th of July week in Eville. Love you!
CIAO!
