Floating Thoughts

1. It does not feel like Christmas this year...probably b/c I have a real job with expectations and responsibility which = less time for mindless fun.
2. It's nice to have some income which allows me to buy nice gifts for my family after EVERYTHING they've provided for me. I love surprising people with things they don't expect.
3. The church services I went to this weekend were so awesome. The Way was great and Sunday morning at Sunset and Insight were bomb.com.
4. Snowboarding on Saturday was really fun. I am more afraid of the drive up and back than the snowboarding itself.
5. My family misses my grandma and grandpa alot....wish they were still with us.
6. I feel like Im finally getting over a long spiritual drought.
7. I'm looking for a new way to be used in ministry....I never thought I was that good at games (that was someone elses idea) I just enjoy talking about my life experiences and making people laugh.
8. Zach and I have been dating for 1 year! This is the longest relationship I've ever had...it's challenging and fun, he's an awesome guy.
9. I am ready to move out into my own place.
10. I'm thankful that my dad has not fought in this war and that he's still alive....I feel for the families who have lost loved ones for such an ambigous cause or who are away from family during the holidays, those were always the hardest tours to endure.
11. This year God threw me for a loop. First, I expected to be in Washington, DC by March. Then, be in Washington, DC my August enrolled in grad school. Then, I didn't get into grad school so I moved there for four days expecting to be there for a year. Now, I'm in Portland, living at home working for a public affairs firm. Wonder what He'll have in store for me next year......
12. I wonder what my friends really think of me.
13. I'm procrastinating, can you tell?!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! (christmas- more christ)
