What a whirlwind of a month!
Can it really be the last day in August?
So much has happened in the last month!
I have been incredibly mobile.
I'm finding this to be a theme of my 20's. I'm not sure how I feel about that, but
hopefully, by this time next year, I will be staying in one place for a while. So much has happened in the blur of 4 weeks. Mostly it was my final weeks at camp, 1 week
at home, and the past 2 at school.
Low:
·
I had to leave camp. I didn't cry last year, but this year, the
tears streamed. I was also sick my last
day.
·
Couldn't eat anything at The Skinny Dip because
of said sickness.
·
My poor car had to spend 2 days in the
shop.
·
The whole mice incident at LAKESIDE. That was the only thing that I hated about
staying up there, granted that it was mostly my fault...
·
I shot milk out my nose during a chugging
contest with Alison.
·
I thought it would be cool to play Banana on a
trip to LAX with Brock. Clearly, it
ended well.
·
After said trip to LAX, I managed to leave my
Wal-Mart stuff in Brock's truck. He
headed back to Texas that night. Glad you
enjoyed my Oreos.
·
Ruby knew when I was leaving for school. She missed me a lot and it was hard to leave
her again.
·
The noise of the Horseshoe that begins rather
early. Thank you, Bartlett Construction
Crew...
High:
·
My grandparents celebrated their 60th
anniversary! :)
·
My last weeks at camp were incredible and fun
and so many other adjectives!
·
I got to ride the horses with Dad and without a
helmet! I missed that so much over the
summer.
·
Moving to school was actually a great
experience. I remembered my ID this year
and the only thing I forgot was a filter for my Brita pitcher! The girls from upstairs helped me move in and
I had a great weekend hanging out with friends from camp and going to Scratch
and stuff.
·
4-way-Skype was achieved with my best friends
from camp! :)
·
I got 3 mini-snow globes for my collection! One from Lu from Yellowstone, one from
Kentucky, and one from Daytona Beach, both from Bryan and Sonya.
·
I have an amazing schedule that allows for lots
of free time and I love my classes.
October might sound different because that is when I will actually get
busy.
·
IT'S MY LAST SEMESTER! It's crazy and almost hard to believe that
next semester I will be living with the Abrahamson's and completing my student
teaching!
·
Meeting up with Rose for a 4 Queens adventure,
and Aaron on his way back to Texas for a Scratch adventure. Could my life get any sweeter? :)
·
Hanging out at Lu's was quite the
adventure. Who knew people decorated
their flower beds with a giant T-Rex?!
·
I was able to see one of my campers from the
first week of camp! She was surprised to
say the least! Her brother was in
Connor's cabin, so we made a short video to send to him!
·
BASIC started up again, and with that starts
small-group Bible Study! I'm back with
Jenny for one last semester and it is going to be awesome! We started on Tuesday and spent our time
getting to know each other and what we will be studying. We're doing the book/DVD series of The Mingling of Souls. It's all about relationships and not just the
guy/girl kind.
·
God has answered so many prayers this month
about so many things. I'll start writing
about some of those and share a new one every Friday as part of the Pray! Shirt
Friday movement. Not only has He
answered many, but I can see the beginnings of answers to prayer
unfolding.
August, you have been good!
You always seem to bring a lot of good with the last fun weeks of camp, home,
and the start of school. This is my last
August at UNI, and it is wonderful! God
has really been on the move in my life this month and it has been extraordinary
to move with him. I want to continue to
feel myself stretching and growing in my faith like I have felt in the past
month. September's looking good
too! :)

dead, you're not done."
