<div style="text-align: center;">
this is my 162nd post.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
nothing significant or amazing about that number.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
if only to let you all know that this little space has served it's purpose.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
frankly, i think i spent the first year of blogging just trying to figure out who i was and where i wanted my blog to go.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so, it is time to say good-bye to the plaid sparrow.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">BUT!</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i am <u>not</u> leaving the blogging community.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i have been praying and trying to decide what i would do once i left here.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
well, after months of planning a wedding, stressing out, getting into a regular work routine and married life, and before the rush of the holiday festivities...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i have decided to put all i have into this new season of my life.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
& this is where you shall all find me doing so:</div>

ok. now i must make myself do a 20 minute work out, shower, and look like a decent human being. nathan is in the National Guard, and today they are having a family day. there will be hot dogs, hamburgers, a water slide, a bounce house (which nathan informed me was ONLY for the kids...pssh...we shall see about that...), and much more. should be a fun day ... except i'm looking out the window and i am pretty sure it may rain. nevertheless, it will be fun!!<br />
<br />
also, i received my wedding invitations in the mail yesterday. i was so pleased with the finished product, and then i realized i never typed in the TIME of our wedding!!! ugh. i was a bit upset. then i decided that i will add a note to every invite or just announce it on facebook. if they show up at the wrong time, well, maybe we will still be there!<br />
<br />
hope you all have a lovely weekend.<br />
much love, colie.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00291272119577039810noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2060333840035028463.post-85980132596565532732013-07-31T06:12:00.001-05:002013-07-31T06:12:30.302-05:00july.Oh, hello there.<br />
I decided to finally get around to posting my 4th of July photos considering it is about to be August.<br />
It may be late, but at least it is better than never. Right?<br />

<br />
i am doing it.<br />
i am going to do a "currently" blog post.<br />
i'm not sure if i like them.<br />
i am not against them.<br />
i just don't know.<br />
<br />
so here it goes:<br />
<br />
<b>reading:</b> DIVERGENT!! OH. MY GOODNESS. ---> Is the all caps helping you guys know how awesome this book is?! Well, if isn't helping then let me just tell you... it is AWESOME! Seriously. I might just like it better than The Hunger Games. I'm not sure yet. I love how it is written and pumped about reading the next book. The only downside is that I have to wait until October for the third installment!! But maybe that is a good thing. <br />
<br />
<b>listening to:</b> Lots of Jesus Culture & Ben Howard. I love the sounds of both.<br />
<br />
<b>feeling thankful:</b> for family. not sure why. for most people this would be a no brainer answer, but i have never been super close to my family. We all are very different and many times i feel i have nothing in common with them. But I love them. & we have celebrated a lot of birthdays over the past two months, so it has been nice visiting and seeing them more lately.<br />
<br />
<b>thinking about:</b> THE WEDDING!! Ah. The countdown is at 104 days, roughly three and half months, and nothing has really been purchased or crafted or anything. But no worries. All shall fall together. This is the girl who waited until two days before finals to cram during college. I passed every semester. I should be okay...right?!<br />
<br />
<b>eating:</b> cup-o-noodles. a lot. they are cheap. they are good. that is all.<br />
<br />
<b>watching:</b> hmm.. I haven't watched much lately. Summer has been great for reading. Plus, we do not have cable anymore, just Netflix + HuluPlus. All the good stuff won't be back on until the fall. HOWEVER, I have been watching auditions for SYTYCD (So You Think You Can Dance?) on HuluPlus, and that makes me heart happy. in another world, i image that God made me a beautiful dancer...<br />
<br />
<b>bummed out about:</b> going to work tomorrow. it is the first of the month and the pharmacy will be booming. and frankly, not in a good way. all the medicaid patients get their checks and their slots open up again for the month and they swarm in like a pack of wolves. also, and this may sound harsh, but most smell like a pack of dirty wolves. i just don't understand that. most of them smell so bad...yet we live in America. A bar of soap is like .99c ... I rest my case.<br />
<br />
<b>loving:</b> my discipline to push myself into a healthier me. i have been so unhappy with my weight and it has been high time i do something to change it!<br />
<br />
& there you all have it.<br />
if you made it this far, i hope i didn't bore you to tears.<br />
if i did, i apologize.<br />
seriously.<br />
i do.<br />
<br />
now, off to read and then to bed.<br />
hope you all had a lovely weekend.<br />
much love,<br />

"aww." that is what you are all saying, right? RIGHT??!<br />
<br />
well, i must say that when <a href="https://www.facebook.com/CarisaDownsPhotography?fref=ts" target="_blank">carisa</a> gave a little sneak peek on facebook, i was extremely happy and very excited.<br />
<br />
i was also over critical of myself. i think i instantly saw just how overweight i have gotten, every wrong angle of myself, how weird my smile can be, what people will think once they see that i have a huge tattoo on my arm, why i didn't choose the other dress, and so on. i believe as females we have a bad habit of doing that in general. & though i still feel that way (and tend to with almost any photo i am EVER in), it speaks nothing of the incredible job that our photographer did. she was an absolute dream, a dear to spend time with, and who made us feel comfortable with her and each other during the shoot.<br />
<br />
nathan was over the moon with our engagement session, as well. & the hundred times he told me how beautiful i am and how he can not wait to marry me, helped me to focus on what is really important. that none of those little insecurities matter.<br />
<br />
& in four months, i will stand before God, close family, and dear friends to commit my life to someone. it is a big step, but one i am so ready to take.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00291272119577039810noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2060333840035028463.post-52235578899757941752013-05-26T19:30:00.001-05:002013-05-26T19:30:25.477-05:00climbing mountains are hard.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

the whole time i was climbing that mountain this afternoon, i was hoping there would be moment where i reach the top of it and think, "wow, God! this is so beautiful. thank you for this beautiful painting set before me." however, in that moment i just couldn't breathe. seriously. i was hot, sweaty, and unable to talk without feeling like i may pass out. it was an amazing experience, one that i would love to do again, but also a much needed reminder that i need to take care of my body. //<br />
<br />
two and a half hours later we are home and watching 'the goonies'. things are better. much better. //<br />
<br />
hope you all are having a wonderful memorial day weekend. much love. //<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm not sure what it is about watching movies, or reading novels, but once they come to an end, there is a part of myself that longs for it to continue.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have always connected to the feelings and emotions played out by fictional characters.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">

<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I think I stress and worry so much because I feel as though I AM suppose to have it all figured out. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That I am alone in feeling uncertain.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">

<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But I am wrong.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I slept good last night,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">thanks to my sleep aid.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I got up early to work my Saturday shift,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">and got done at 1:00.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">It was an easy day.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">When I got off, the sun was shining so bright,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">making me realize that I needed to go for a jog more than ever.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Instead I met my friend, who is silly and crazy and wondeful, and whom I love so much.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">We sat outside...it was nice until the wind started picking up a bit, and then I was cold.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I have only heard from Nathan once today.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">He has drill all weekend. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">No bueno.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I went to an antique shop after lunch.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">There was an industrial table for $25. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I feel in my heart of hearts that that was a steal.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I didn't get it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">But if it is still there next weekend, I'll know it was meant for me. ;)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I found out that my ex-boyfriend and his fiance are getting married today...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">It was weird knowing that.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Not because I have feelings for him or I have anything against the couple.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">They are both actually very lovely people and fit together so well.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">I truly am happy for them and what the future holds for their marriage.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I think what is strange is to remember old times, and remember how much his step-mother never approved of me.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><em>I was never good enough</em>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">That has always stuck with me, and I'm still dealing with it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I got some froyo before heading back home. & i</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">t was glorious!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">how was your saturday?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">ps. my friend and her boyfriend went to see jurassic park 3D at the IMAX.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">I found this gem while thrifting today:</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">*Being woke up at 6:30 in the morning, by a phone call from my step-dad. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">When he heard my groggy voice, he realized it was Thursday, my day off of work, and apologized.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">*I went back to sleep for another hour.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">*I cleaned my room. If you were to see it, it wouldn't look like I did much.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I did, though. I promise.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">*a grumpy fiance. he isn't feeling well today. so i let him be grumpy.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">(let's be honest, he puts up with enough of my grumpiness, that i can survive one day of his, right?!)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">*got my hair trimmed and layered. it is strange that so many hair stylists do not know how to work with naturally curly hair. this being the reason that i either wear it straight or throw it up in a top-knot. but that gets exhausting and boring, not to mention that it causes more damage to my hair. but i bite the bullet and went to someone highly recommended by close friends. & i am oh-so happy that i did. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">*ate sushi</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">*attempted to buy some froyo afterwards, but they weren't open at that time. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">i was disappointed, indeed. seriously. you all don't know how much i LOVE froyo. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">*with my unfortunate run in with the froyo place, i drove across town to purchase a cup o' iced coffee.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">*wondered if it was actually going to rain(...it said 50%, but there hasn't been but a few drops all day).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">*sorted through all my clothes. i have quite a few to get rid of soon.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">*backed up my iP4S, successfully. -- updated my iP4S, UNsuccessfully. (a tad bit of frustration built up after spending 2 hours TRYING to update the stupid thing.)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">*ran hot water, added dish soap, and put most of the dishes in the sink.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">they are STILL sitting there....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">*began re-reading gene wilder's memoir, 'kiss me like a strange'. good reads.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">*the grumpy fiance returned home, and is now napping...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">*finished the dishes in the sink</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">*getting pumped up about going to small group tonight. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">god, friends, laughs, fellowship, and food is what this girl needs.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">PS. i am pretty sure gene wilder and i are related. ---> just look at the hair. it says it all.</span><br />

Sometimes, in the most random of times, I will have a memory that fills my mind of long ago. Isn't that strange when moments like that happen? There are some that I smile at the memory of, some I frown a bit and almost wish I had forgotten, some that I had forgotten entirely (wondering if it actually happened), and some that I was too young to remember but have the beauty of it captured on photos.<br />
<br />
I am getting married in October (oh by the way...everyone who doesn't know...SURPRISE...I'm getting married!!). Ha. & the first few weeks I was extremely stressed out. Financially trying to get everything together was proving to be more work than I had ever wanted. So it looks as though we may be doing a small wedding (consisting of very close friends and family, maybe 20-30 peeps), our honeymoon (at Walt Disney World! Yes. Be jealous. I'm stoked!!!), and then come back home and have a very large reception. It is not how I always dreamed I would have my wedding, but a lot changes from the age of 5 to 25.<br />

I am trying to decide if I want another tattoo. I do. --> It seems recently that I have been struggling a bit with my tattoos. Well, my more visible ones to be specific. I always try my best to cover them, at work especially. But even when I am out and about I usually find the need to cover them up. Honestly living in a small town, where eyes flock to such "sinful" marks upon my body, can be exhausting. I am not one to typically care what others think about my tattoos, because I love them all (I have five.), but constant scrutiny can cause insecurity in myself over time.<br />
<br />
I've been reading a lot more lately. A quote I came across said this:<br />
"I long for people to fall in love with God and each other." -SC.<br />
Yes, I quite certainly agree.<br />
<br />
I purchased three, small moleskin journals yesterday from Barnes & Noble. I'm so happy that I did.<br />

I picked up Nathan (the fiance) from the airport LATE Friday evening. By late I mean almost 11pm. It was wayy past my bedtime, folks. Anyways, he was flying back home from being on a mission trip for a week in Haiti. He had so many stories to share about cleaning trash, planting gardens, working with the orphans, running out of power (two nights in a row and it wasn't a big deal to them), how most things cost the same thing as it does in the States but there are no jobs to supply the income to pay for such, and how they would sit around and jump into worship songs praising their Father in Heaven. They are far more grateful than I believe we shall ever be. & that reality breaks my heart to the core.<br />
<br />
PS. I obsessed with Downton Abbey. & you all should be too.<br />
That is all.<br />
<br />
I hope you all have the loveliest Wednesday, my friends!<br />
much love,<br />

I planned on posting this first thing Friday morning (last Friday, to be exact). I am really loving the Week in Review posts by other bloggers. So, my plan it to do it every week, if I can... and not on Tuesday, when it should have been last Friday. I can do this.. right??!<br />
<br />
Anyways, work was crazy, busy today. People (co-workers and patients) got on my nerves, as usual, but I kept a positive attitude. It probably had to do with the fact that I have been applying for jobs!! I'm not sure if I will find something better, but it is definitely worth trying.<br />
<br />
The other day I decided to get Hulu Plus, which is the best thing I've done since deciding to pay for Netflix. So tonight consisted of me finally getting to start season 2 of 'Once Upon a Time' & some much needed time catching up on 'New Girl'. I only have three more episodes of NG until I am all caught up. Can I just take this time to tell everyone how in love I am with Nick Miller, because I am. Ok, ok. I'll stop. If you haven't watched the show, go do it. RIGHT. NOW. (or when you get home from work today!)<br />
<br />
Anyways, on to the good stuff, my friends.<br />

Maddie does the Week in Review, which is why I decided to start doing it, as well. She has a quirky sense of humor, and oh how I love that! She makes up words and makes me laugh so hard. And she has red hair! Does it get any better than that, my friends? I dare say, it does not!<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, life has been hectic around these here parts (please imagine that with my thickest country accent. I hope it made you giggle.). </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">First, I feel like I am going to have an anxiety attack or blow up on someone at work any minute these days. I'm serious. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I realize that no matter how old we get, where we work, or which environment that we find ourselves in, that we will always be around people who test our patience and kindness. Sometimes I wonder if a few extra dollars an hour + insurance is really worth dealing with it all. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I guess if I ever get the nerve to actually walk out one day, then I'll have my answer.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Secondly, I went two weeks ago to the dentist for a teeth cleaning. While I was there, I was told that I had three cavities that needed to be filled. & I was like, "Yea. Let's do this...", except I had to wait until this morning. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Which was fine.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">You guys, she said, "Oh, I thought I told you it would be that much."</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ummm...NO, LADY!!! Geez.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I literally could not get mad.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I just starred at her, my eyes watered up, and at any moment the tears were gonna start flooding down my face, like a freakin' waterfall.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Luckily, she took pity on me.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As she should have. Obviously.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I only had to pay half today.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yea, yea. It was still a lot, but I have two weeks until I have to pay the rest.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So I was upset, but grateful nonetheless.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also, I am going to two small groups this year.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One with Nathan and his church and the one I attend with the young adults from my church.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So my Sunday & Thursday evenings are now full and I love it that way! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">& Jesus does, too.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We talked about it, so I know.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyways, I would like to lose some weight, guys.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Not necessarily to be thin.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But frankly, I need to be healthy.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I just have no discipline or motivation for it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yea, so I'll letcha know how that goes. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well that was a bunch of rambling. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Remember...I have a tendency to do that often.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ok. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, finally, I had been seeing a counselor for my anxiety/stress/worry.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Which was great, but listen folks...I can not be forking out $42 every two weeks to talk to someone about my problems.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Would one of you do it...for FREE!?? </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Just kidding.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sort of.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is now 1:30pm.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I haven't eaten all day.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My mouth is no longer numb.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, I'm signing off here to eat something...probably not healthy.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Geez.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Someone hold me accountable, please!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Happy Thursday, friends.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">much love,</span></div>

In my defense, that is because I have been deathly ill this week. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I probably wouldn't have died, but in my over-dramatic mind, it sure felt like I might have.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">So, maybe I'll post a follow-up video soon.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Maybe not.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Who knows. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Honestly, I'm terrible at committing myself to something and following through most of the time.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Which isn't a great quality, I'm aware.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I just try to remind myself that I'll get better. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Anyways, this morning I had plans to get up, clean my room up because it looks like the tornado from The Wizard of Oz came through it, do my large pile of laundry, and attempt to clear out the mess in my vehicle.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">None of that has happened thus far.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">It is 11:25am.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">So what did I do instead?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Oh, I finally sat down to read Mindy Kaling's book.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwU_jeLnQN8fSEj9AooeplwI7czUQ9yS85A9_hO6HqQp458CTnTFEXSYxT_TyiveL7buOkCGbNLZHlVnSFiG-oYsvtPp3eGrVYU8UJ_XI9QtFd4vJUO0UmZaGnjN1cxLg5MQj5N-EXv3UJ/s1600/photo.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwU_jeLnQN8fSEj9AooeplwI7czUQ9yS85A9_hO6HqQp458CTnTFEXSYxT_TyiveL7buOkCGbNLZHlVnSFiG-oYsvtPp3eGrVYU8UJ_XI9QtFd4vJUO0UmZaGnjN1cxLg5MQj5N-EXv3UJ/s640/photo.JPG" width="480" /></a></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Let me just say that I wish we were friends.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Like if I knew where to find her, I would be one of those creepy stalker people you hear about on television.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Of course I wouldn't be arrested or charged for anything.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Because she would find me in her house, probably in her library (I'm not sure if she has one, but I'm assuming), we would start talking, make jokes about our weight and how we will never be skinny, and become the best of friends that I knew we would always be. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Yes, that is how it would go.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Afterwards, we would make arrangements to meet for dinner where she would introduce me to Zooey Deschanel. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">But for now, I have to go into town with one of my "real-life" friends.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Then, I will come home and clean.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Maybe...or nap.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">It's raining outside, I don't have to work, and that basically means I should nap all day.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Oh, and then I'm meeting friends to go watch 'Pitch Perfect' at their house.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">If you haven't seen that movie, then get off the computer now, go to RedBox (or wherever you rent movies), rent it, and then get ready to laugh so hard you'll cry. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I'm serious.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">You can thank me later.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Happy weekend, friends.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">much love, </span><br />

It literally took me ALL day to upload this video.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Ridiculous, I know. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Story of my life, I tell ya.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Anyways, I obviously didn't do a second video as I had mentioned in the one above.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
After church I met our group that went to Passion for lunch, went to my mom's house for a bit, and then came home and slept all afternoon.</div>

Soo...I'll have to post the next one sometime this week.</div>

<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">It was a winter wonderland the morning after Christmas, friends.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I woke up with a lose of words with how goregous God painted the world with snow.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">It was truly a moment that took my breathe away. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I only wish that I had every day moments like that.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Those moments that seem so small, so simple, but it is as though you are the closest to God you have been in a long time. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I have a lot to share with you all about this coming year. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I'm excited.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I think this past year was one of immense struggle.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Frankly, it still is now.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">But things are changing.</span><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Slowly, but it's getting there.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">So, I plan to share more with you.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I will be blogging more. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I will make an effort to connect with you.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I am making changes.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I hope that you'll stay along for the journey.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">much love, friends.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">colie</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">PS. I also woke up the morning of my winter wonderland with a bit of a cold.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I am stocking up on meds, but I MUST be better by Tuesday morning! </span><br />

<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Community matters.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">People matter.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">You matter.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Love is what binds us.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">My hope is that we would learn to love and grow together.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Because doing life without others is not only lonely, but impossible.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I pray that, though our hearts may be troubled and broken, we remember to trust in a Father who is always faithful.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I sadly did not get to attend </span><a href="http://www.theinfluenceconference.com/"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The Influence Conference</span></a><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"> this year. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">However, I was lucky enough to read blog posts from so many lovely ladies who did.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">There was one thing that </span><a href="http://www.thewiegands.com/"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Casey</span></a><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"> said that resonated in my mind over and over.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">It is this:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;"><strong><u><em>"Your mess can be your ministry."</em></u></strong></span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span></strong> </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">It is a reminder that our struggles, our unthinkable journey, our moments of undesireable pain and pure joy can <strong><u>ALL</u></strong> be used for His glory.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The paths we take in life happen for a reason.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Though our hearts may wander, the Lord of Lords is always near. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Always.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I hope you all find rest in that today.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">much love, friends.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<em><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">sometimes i am sad because i am 25, single, with no kids. & sometimes i get annoyed when people say i'm still young. i know that. stop telling me. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<em><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">i hate that i care so much for someone who doesn't feel the same. he isn't a horrible person. he has a lot of growing up to do. i'm just pretty sure i won't be around when he finally does. </span></em></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<em><span style="font-family: Georgia;">i have been working out for over 2 months. sometimes i can't tell if anything has changed. but most days i'm just proud that i'm still sticking with it.</span></em></div>

If they are wrong they need your prayers all the more; and if they are your enemies, then you are under orders to pray for them. That is one of the rules common to the whole house."<br />

<em><u><strong>I think it is time to share my heart with you all.</strong></u></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First, though, I would like to apologize.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not for not blogging. I needed that break.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have expereienced a lot in the past month and every time I sat down to write, it just felt wrong.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The words didn't flow and it felt forced.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No, no.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I want to apologize for not keeping in touch with those who have emailed, text, encouraged, and just shined a bright light in my life.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm so grateful for you all.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I just wish that I didn't close the world out when I am dealing with situations in my life.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have used my Instagram and Facebook occassionally, but there has been so much lacking of communication with anyone by any type of media.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I just want you to know I haven't forgotten you.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have read your texts, emails, etc.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm grateful for them. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't mind if they were a day or a week late...frankly, I haven't responded in so long that there is truly no need for an apology, sweet friends.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: right;">
<em>I <u>never</u> put one foot into something.</em></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<em> I <u>never</u> half way fall into it.</em></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<em> <strong><span style="font-size: large;">I <span style="font-size: x-large;">leap</span> with everything I have.</span></strong></em><br />
<em>I run full force with everything in my being...</em></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<em>...& my heart is a fragile thing because of it.</em></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<em><u>I try to care and love for others the way that Christ does for me so willingly, though I don't deserve it.</u></em></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<em>I think that because I am that way, that everyone else would be, as well.</em></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<em>I am always saddened when I realize that that is not the case.</em><br />
<br />
<em>Isn't it a strange thing how the emotions you have attached to someone makes you feel as though <strong><span style="font-size: large;">no harm could befall you.</span></strong></em><br />
<em>Then, all at once, and ever so suddenly, it comes crashing down on you.</em><br />
<em>It leaves you <span style="font-size: large;">confused</span> and wondering what is wrong with you.</em><br />
<br />
<em>I think I have shed more tears in the past week than I have in months.</em><br />
<em>As time passes it isn't so much about an individual person, but more about how so many have left me feeling this way.</em><br />
<em>I try so much to be kind.</em><br />
<em>I try to treat others the way that we <strong><span style="font-size: large;">all</span></strong> desire to be treated.</em><br />
<em>It doesn't seem to be enough.</em><br />
<em><strong>I have no clue why people let go of good things in their life.</strong></em><br />
<em>If I did then I wouldn't have spent a few nights asking God "Why?" so many times.</em><br />
<br />
<em>There are days I wish I didn't have the personality traits that not only are my strength, but forever my weakness, as well.</em><br />
<em>It feels like a heavy burden I can't fix.</em><br />
<em>But do you know what?</em><br />
<em><u>I <strong><span style="font-size: large;">love</span></strong> myself.</u></em><br />
<em>I love who God has shaped and molded me into be.</em><br />
<em>I may not be right for those that have been in my life, but I will be right for someone that God has for me in the future.</em><br />
<em>There is pure joy in that knowledge.</em><br />
<em>Pure joy.</em><br />
<br />
<em><span style="font-size: large;">I am grateful.</span></em></div>
