I'm in a perfectly perfect mood right now.  
God is good.
This day was such a gift.

I'm taking things in stride
I accept and even welcome criticism now
Ready to grow
I've reached new heights

Therefore I'm open to such ( Read more... )

I think it may be safe to say

[if I may put it so boldly]

that this place was effing made for me.

and I love it.

It's a darn shame that this heat coaxes the crabs out of remission.

But hey!
A lake breeze is coming our way
