should not have done that

since april I have been saying I was going to avoid Facebook because I was extremely saddened by the fact that I am not graduating on my four year plan :( you say" plans change for a reason" but as an elementary student I knew that I would go to school for a communications degree of some sort and I would graduate 4 years from my high school graduation and then visit family in England or go to Grad School.

I am choking back tears. I do not want the end of May to come and me not have my degree. I kinda wish today would freeze, or that I just have to take a hiatus from Facebook until next year.

So instead of following my own sanity and avoiding fb I search for it because I heard the song "Chicken Fry" which reminds me of my only college room mate other than my husband. seeing her and all our sisters( from Theta Sigma Chi)  posting about their graduation or amazing summers. grrr....

one day I will listen to my own advice.
until then....

    I wish I would have avoided facebook all this weekend for pretty much the same reason as you. However, I am going on year 6 of college.. :-/ So, now your 4 years doesn't too bad, huh? ;-)

    Don't worry about not finishing in four years. It's really not a big deal in the grand scheme of things. You are striving towards your goal, and that's the absolute best thing you can do.

    And remember, the best thing that ever happened to you, happened to you while you were in college. You got married! :-)

    Keep your head up, and remember you are still way ahead of me!! :-)

    Erica!!

LIFE: Camp

I have had an awful lot of un published blogs lately. These blogs come from deep routed feelings that have surfaced this year due to one thing or another. Maybe some day these blogs will be unearthed but for today, this blog needed to be written while it was still raw.  I have very vague memories of third or forth grade summer camp at Alto Frio, where I met Nana Pudding ( a christian puppet) and went pogging for the first time in a river. Summer after sixth grade,  I got in church vans and headed to Louisiana for the first time to attend Student Life Camp, then proceeded to go to Angelo State University and Glorieta New Mexico a few times. I spent time serving during spring breaks at Riverbend Retreat Center which lead to an internship over the summer. The week that "Curtis" and I first really got to know each other, we were at Glorieta for Centrifuge camp.  Camp is a special place for me. Camp is a happy place for me.  In 2018, I was able to experience camp through ...

first day of "summer"

On this the first day of Summer at work, I find myself reflecting on the past "year". The kiddos are twice the size they were last "year" and I am still working towards my same goals. - God's plan which may or may not include the things below this line - School - Weight Loss - Running - Reading I did do myself a favor last night, the last night of my break from school because summer school started today, and finished a really great book I think I started at Christmas. I was only ever able to read it in the car and we have not done many long trips this year. The book was "Unlikely Disciple " by Kevin Roose and I highly recommend it. It is about a non christian student from a secular school doing their study abroad at Liberty University. I am glad I chose to read this and not some girl falls in love book. I was completely satisfied with the choice. I think that God showed Curtis this book for me because I came from the same kind of household/family/back...
