A Meager Attempt at Catching Up

Yes, I know.. I am a very very bad blogger. I've not updated since August. However I do indeed still exist. And this is the first time at work that, strangely, I've found myself in a mood to blog. It's not a case of me not wanting my friends to keep up with me... it's me finding my self in an emotional extreme whenever I would sit down and have time to type and I'm not sure that's a healthy view for people that I don't talk to frequently enough to have of my emotional/mental state. So finally I find myself in an non-extreme mood WITH time to blog. (That's the other thing... when I'm feeling rather normal I usually don't have time to blog %).)Anyway....

Graham dear and I are still dating. :) He was such a sweetie this week. I left my Bible in his car on Monday, so Tuesday he planned to meet me somewhere on his way to church and he greeted me with Starbucks coffee (my favorite, a hazelnut latte) and Starbucks ornaments that he said I absolutely had to have that couldn't wait 'til Christmas. He's been a sweetie. We've had our rough moments... sometimes between us and somes with our parents but nothing worth ending the relationship so far (and hopefully not ever ;o)).

Thanksgiving was good. Graham and I celebrated with our respective families and he left Thanksgiving evening to go hunting at his grandpa's place with his brother and some friends. While they saw alot of does, it's buck season and he was the only one that saw a buck and shot it. Yup... he got a 5 point buck. We're pretty proud of him. Mom made the comment that "Well, we know the boy can provide now!". :)...

I feel like I'm writing some sort of documentary now. It's strange....

Monday was his birthday and I got up super early to get to school before I had to be a work so I could write "Happy Birthday" on his car w/window chalk. I succeeded in writing on his windows but the boog didn't go to his 8am class so I got caught in the act. He liked it though and was excited so that's good. Doing that was alot of fun. It's strange how much it pleases me to make him feel special. But it does. :)

Ah, well, I guess there have been some major academic decisions lately. I'm not happy in school and it's not where God wants me anymore. So after this semester I'm indefinitly out of school (as far as being a student) until God says otherwise. The plan is to seriously get back into horses (there's fear in my heart at saying that b/c I know I've said it so many times and it hasn't happened and I'm scared it still won't happyen but... I have to at least try don't I?), and pick up another part time job. I've applied at a place in the mall and I'm gonna apply at one other place downtown so we'll see what goes. But working and saving up for a horse trailer and another horse (perferrably lesson pony) is the plan for now. In the mean time I'm getting through Physics. Which, after an interesting conversation with a co-worker, I think I've come to believe that I've found something academically that I'm just not good at. As stuck up as this could sound, I've just never really had that happen before. So I may be getting a B in this class (I know, I know, and you all laugh that getting a B is what happens when I'm not good at something %)..)

That's kind of the summary of my life right now. Things seem to be a bit of a roller coaster ride at times. But aren't they always no matter what our state or condition? It's just a matter of learning to enjoy the different parts of the ride. So things are getting a bit busy down here so I'll sign out. I love ya'll!!
