After today I do NOT feel like writing. Actually. I could write a book right now. But I have nothing happy or good to say. Just depressing stuff. So I'm going to keep it inside and never let it out. Because that's my prerogative. Stick with reading this post. It gets happier at the end...or at least cuter. :)
Today sucked. But God didn't say "Rejoice just when things are good". He said "Rejoice ALWAYS". There's no way to get around that 'always' word. So this is me rejoicing today. Yay.
So with a heavy heart, a hurting head, and tear-filled eyes, I'm gonna step back and let God's love comfort me tonight.
I hate when situations come up that make me doubt God. I don't know why things happen the way they do. I don't know why God brings people into your life long enough for you to get attached and then allows them to walk away, even when it ends up hurting you. I don't know why God allows promising possibilities to come up, and when they are right around the corner suddenly that possibility is pulled out from under you. But I have to trust that the back-up plan is better than the initial one.
I need to trust God. That's all I can say. I'm trying so hard. I don't have a choice but to just lift my hands and say "This is all you God." Let go and let God right?
So on a completely different note..some updates.
Stan the Man (aka Stanley, my car) hit a milestone Tuesday. A whole 100,000 miles :)
Also, my school is doing this "Scavenger Hunt" thing for the Vet Tech class, and we have this list of like 20 things to find and take pictures of. Animals and whatnot.. For example, a dog doing a trick, a rabbit, a horse..blah blah.
Now normally I don't participate in much of these activities my school senate puts on. But come on, taking pictures? I'm all over this.
I should also add that if you win, you get a free vet tech sweatshirt. And everyone that knows me knows I love sweatshirts. So, needless to say, this is right up my alley.
This one was supposed to be an animal in a halloween costume. But I don't do Halloween so, here's Nando in my football jersey :) He is thrilled.
The fun stopped yesterday though. I had to take Nando to the vet today. He has a nasty sore on his leg. Found out it is a "Lick Granuloma". Got some meds and it should be fine. Bad thing is...
That's right ladies and gentlemen. My dog has to wear the cone of shame.
(That's Dug from the Movie UP on the bottom)
Nando is really having trouble with it. He runs into everything. He whines ALL THE TIME when he wears it. It breaks my heart.
Nando hates it. Batman is scared of it. And I feel like a horrible mother. Especially since I take these opportunities to get pictures of him being pathetic.
So hopefully his leg gets better really really soon.
Now some things to smile about.
1. In ONE WEEK I will be done with class. Basically forever. But lets be real..I'll end up back in school for something. I love it that much.
2. I'm 99% sure my dad is getting me the new camera lens I've been begging for since I got my new camera. Pretty sure I'm getting it as a graduation gift and I'm super excited. I really want it :)
3. My husband is pretty cool. He let me watch the Notebook last night instead of making me watch the movie Taken like he wanted. He just loves me :)
4. He also made me chocolate chip cookies last night, granted they were "place and bake" ones- but we proceeded to eat almost all 24 of them. I love cookies.
5. I love meeting new friends. God surprises me sometimes by bringing people across my path that just brighten my day. It doesn't happen very often but when it does it's nice.
6. Just going outside brings a smile to my face most days. I LOVEEEEEEE FALL. Bonfires. Sweatshirts. Boots. Scarves. Pretty Leaves. Cold Mornings. Pumpkins. Flannel Shirts and Carhartt Jackets. Candy Corn. Pumpkin Pie. Holidays. EVERYTHINGGGG. Fall > Every other season. Period
Dad and I went to a horse show the other day in Edinburgh and this is the only picture I came home with.
It's a really cool bridge we came across while we were walking trails between shows. I loved it.
Done for the day. My...self is exhausted. Happy Wednesday. This post was so much longer than I intended it to be.
"You can say we're done, the way you always do.
It's easier to lie to me than to yourself.
Forget about your friends
You know they're gonna say we're bad for each other
But we ain't good for anyone else." -Kenny Chesney "Come Over"
