just for fun

last week i ranted a little on FB about dealing with annoying people. i started listing things i'd rather do than deal with annoying people. it was kinda fun. so i thought i'd continue on with that list...

so let's start with a review of last week:

 things i'd rather do than deal with annoying people: eat shards of glass, listen to cheesy christian music (oh lawd), run midday in GA heat in a wool sweater, watch dumb man movies like rocky/rambo, sit in a room full of people eating cereal, eat sour kraut (sp?), hold a roach...i could do a whole blog on this.

adding to that list:

paint my house with a q tip 

do burpees all day, nonstop

eat molasses chased by saw dust

go snow skiing (in general) and in shorts and a tank top

wear an airbrushed anything

cheer for the florida gators and/or tennessee (yeah i said it)

watch basketball

be allergic to peanuts. oh that hurts to even type...i.love.peanut.butter.

wear tight jeans. (nothing worse.)

smell Gs feet after a day in shoes without socks... good grief

drink root beer. i just can't.

sleep in a bed full of sand

spend a day stuck in that spot just before dothan al that smells like you know what... s*@%

live in dothan al (yep i said it. only thing good about that town is it gets me to the beach.)

ride a lawnmower from here to texas

cut our front yard with left handed kiddie scissors

be in a beauty pageant. NOT bc i have anything against them...but bc i don't know how to do my makeup, i am not elegant in fancy clothes, my only talent is singing the 10 commandments (i'd do it on command anytime!), me + a bathing suit + high heels = DISASTER.

eat at golden corral

go back to middle school

write in cursive. i can't even sign my name. 

eat a can of vienna sausages. i just threw up in my mouth

have a house full of pets. oh shoot me

sit at the DMV

give people pedicures. eww.

eat krystals without access to a bathroom

hit every read light on veterans parkway. why columbus?

try to seem cool at a bar. (i'm such a nerd.)

 go to a miley cyrus concert. wait no, i'd rather deal with nothing but annoying people.

i could do this all day....

Realizing more & more about this move...

It's been just over 4 months since we left GA. I can't even begin to tell you all that these 4 months have brought. But I'm going to try... Leaving Columbus was hard. Leaving family was the worst. I'll never forget that last Sunday with my family. I'll never forget weeping through church sitting next to my family thinking "I can't leave them." I'll never forget crying...let's be honest...weeping the entire time I drove that Sunday afternoon. I cried most of Monday as well. (I'm crying now just typing about it.)  I knew I loved my family but the thought of not seeing them at least once a week broke me hard.  The first several weeks I cried every Saturday evening. I don't know what it was about Saturdays but I fell apart. I missed my family. I wanted to be able to see them at church the next morning. I missed my church family, my running buddies, my neighbors...I missed "normal" life.  But as the weeks went on the Lo

i'm no expert

i do not claim to know ANYTHING about parenting. i've only been one 2.5 years and still text/call/email my mom and sister-in-law about everything. i'm pushing 36 so i'm not just out of high school either. but i have spent the last 15 years (between being a Young Life leader and working for Teen Advisors) walking through life with high school students and i've picked up on some things. i've mentioned some of these things before so forgive me if i repeat myself. the most important thing i've learned about teenagers - no matter how nerdy, popular, emo, cool, punkish, quiet, obnoxious, annoying they are - is that they desire CONSISTENCY. yep, they simply want someone to be consistent in their life. i have very little wisdom to share with the TAs i spend my time with. but i show up. i ask questions. i encourage them. sometimes i call them out on their foolishness. but i am THERE. so put your phone down, put away the computer, turn off the TV and spend tim

Lil update on us, Village Church and more

I just told Jay how much I love it here. I recently posted a blog about what the Lord has done in my heart here. I'm still not over it. My heart & mind feel as fresh as the mountain air. CHEESY but so very true and my heart is full. God has blown us away with His faithfulness. He is everywhere. He amazes me daily, hourly. He has helped Gabe's heart go from "I'm never leaving Columbus." back in May to "I hope we never leave Angel Fire, ever." I feel ya kid. I feel ya. Here's a few stories I wish I could tell each of you over coffee... One Friday night, a month ago or so, we made coffee and put out some snacks in preparation for our weekly service. (Still being held at our house for three more weeks!) We had a rather small group that night I think there may have been 10 of us. We began like any other night - in worship. We began singing our last song and I kid you not it sounded like there were 200+ people singing with us. At first I thou
