Whoa, my bad.

So I realized I haven't posted anything for awhile (not that is matters cause I'm pretty sure no one actually reads this blog. haha) but here goes a quick catch up...


My roomie and I embarked on the amazing adventure to find a real live tree for christmas.  After going through some rigamarole to find the appropriate vehicle to tote our tree find back to our dwelling place (we ended up with my brothers jacked up, red neck pick-up truck) we headed out to the tree farm.  30 minutes out of town. Their website said they were open til 8 pm, their website lied... we came back to town and found a tree stand that was open, on the third try.  Found a tree, got hit on by a 5'6" highschooler, jammed the tree into our apartment then returned my brothers truck.  It took 45 minutes to cut off the base of the tree (we later found out my roomies dad gave us the wrong saw, we're gonna blame that on him and not our lack of knowing how to saw a tree stump off) then another hour of moving furniture around our apartment to find just the right location for our amazingly bushy friend for the next month.



Chaos...  where should this tree go?














Side note-> why in the WORLD is it so insanely hard to add pictures to your post!?!?! I battled with these for 20 minutes to get them in the right spot!!!
~oiy technology!!
Ok, enough about the christmas tree escapades.... what else is new....

So since no one I'm aware of actually reads this blog I can spill the beans on here.  

I'M MOVING TO COLORADO!!! 
(well, it's like 80% sure. still working out a few small details...)
Seriously, how could you NOT just LOVE this?
Yep, I'm quitting this amazing job I have here (a job isn't everything in life), leaving my church I've attended for my entire life to this point (sad, I'll miss being recognized in the halls), saying farewell to my family and friends (this one is the kicker!) and headed 7 hours to the mountains of CO! (wait! what am I thinking leaving all this behind!?!?!)  It's scary as all get out!  But I'm almost 26, lived in the same 35 mile radius my entire life, always attended the same church, had the same friends, known where my life is headed.  I'm ready for change.  I'm ready to step out from under the safety net of my parents and live life as an adult! fend for myself, make new friends, force change.  
It's only a 7 hr drive. Not bad, I'll be home all the time... or at least that's the plan. 
Sounds a little crazy I know but I hope it will force me to grow closer to my Savior and depend wholly on HIM! round here I depend on Him mostly but I know I have people around to fall back on if things get to scary or intimidating.  So that's the big news!  If you think of me pray for wisdom.  That I'll find a job, a place to live and seek HIM wholly in this.  If I'm not to go or making a mistake (leaving all the goodness I have here in this cushy life of mine) that He will make it painstakingly obvious.  Thanks, I'd appreciate it much!

Now, I've battled enough with my laptop for one night. off to bed.  Night. =)
