Tired, but Thankful...

Today I am so thankful that school is almost over for the summer. It's not that I don't like school, it's just that I know that this summer is going to be crazy! Between hospital stays, job hunting, and just being sick, I kind of dread it. I am thinking about keeping this updated, and sharing with others, but I am not sure.

I am also thinking about everything in my life, and all that I am blessed with, and I am just so happy. No matter how hard I think life is, I still have a wonderful family, and that is something that is becoming more and more rare. I love that my parents let me stay with them, and stay with me when I go into the hospital. They don't have to do either one of those, but that's just the kind of people they are. I love my life right now. No matter how many times I cough, get sick, moan, groan, gripe, or just be plain annoying, they still are there for me. They know how hard my life gets, and they are there with me every step of the way.

Thank you, Lord, for blessing me with so many great things that I don't deserve.

Slow Week...

Well, this week has gone by pretty slow it seems! My sister and the babies came up on Wednesday, and I was super happy to see them! She asked me to come stay with her for a week in Texas, which is about three hours away from my house, while her husband was gone. I think this would be really fun, but the only problem is... She doesn't have internet! Yikes! I don't know what to do about it. My aunt is visiting this weekend and I haven't seen her since last year. She also lives in Texas, and tries to come up on holidays, or when she gets off work on a weekend (which is rare). I am glad that I have the kind of family where seeing each other is mandatory almost. I don't know what I would do if I lived too far away from them. This week has been good, and slow, but I don't mind at all. I got to see the people that I love very much!

Finally happy... For the moment...

I am so proud of myself! I made up all the work that I couldn't do because of family deaths. I am so relieved! Now all I worry about is, "Did I do a good enough job?". I want to do this. I want to be part of this class! I don't like being left behind! I am so happy and relieved though, that this week finally held nothing more than homework. Going to bed with aching fingers, wrists, neck, and back feels pretty darn good to me right now. At least I accomplished something that I have been wanting to do for a while. I have my fingers and toes crossed for good enough grades to keep me passing. I really want this to work out. I am so thankful for second chances.... Hope everyone is doing okay!

P.s.- Miranda, if you are reading this, I tried to comment on your post about being angry and frustrated, but it wouldn't let me! I just want to let you know that I know exactly what you are going through! I hope everything gets better for you! =)
