last night as i was doing laundry in the garage of the pink house, i discovered a snake of some sort. it was dim in the garage and seems the overhead light has gone out so i was not able to see what type it was (not that i could distinguish one type from another..).as i was switching my clothes from washer to dryer i saw something move on the shelf beside me and stood there long enough to watch it and make sure i wasn't seeing things. i then quickly shut the door of the washer and dryer, grabbed my stuff, and ran out. i still have wet clothes in the garage. gross.

someone please address this snake issue. i was home alone last night and am i big baby. i can't handle these things.

miles i elect you to rid us of this issue. go.

i went to the stone tonight. of all the churches i have visited lately trying to find a place to call home on sunday mornings, the stone is still the only place i've found where i can go and know i have met with God and my soul has been fed and challenged.

Matt taught on John 13:46:

"By this all men will know that you are my disciplies, if you have love for one another."

the idea of love is one that has been running through my head for months now. if Jesus has called to love others the way He has loved us then that means we are to love others unconditionally, to love them when they are at their most unlovable to state, and to love through any hurt and rejection they may cause us to feel. i feel fairly confident in saying i try my hardest to be as understanding and loving to the people i find in my life, but i know-without the slightest doubt-that i have failed and that i struggle with loving even those closest to me when they reach the unlovabable state and especially after i have been hurt by them.
after church i went out to mozart's for a bit. ended up finishing my donald miller book. his writing is just so stripped of "fluff" and plain that it is easy for it to sink it. here is something he said that struck me-
" i get this feeling sometimes that after the world ends, when God destroys all our buildings and our flags, we will wish we had seen everybody as equal, that we had eaten dinner with prostitutes, held them in our arms, opened up spare rooms for them and loved them and learned from them"


there is so much more in this book about the power of fully realizing the love Christ.
you should read it.
i should sleep.


and one more...

i want to go home.

can i retire now??

monday monday...


always a rough day. always so sad to leave the freedom of saturday and sunday behind and submit to the job once again.

the weekend went well i suppose. i managed to get out of the office by 4:15 on friday and head the gym early (which was fabulous), following a workout and a trip to central market on the way home, my friday evening consisted of a shower, some mild cleaning, dinner and spinach dip making (thanks to samantha), and lots of pointless television watching. i know-it's all very exciting. i think i am past the point in my life where i feel like i should be out doing something on the weekends. i am pretty much content with the usual gyming session and dinner at home..not that i would pass up something else if it presented itself..but not having something else do doesn't result in a blow to my self esteem as it once did. i guess that's one good thing about the "real world".


anyway. saturday i slept until 7:30am. disgusting. why can i not sleep in anymore?? anyway..woke up and worked out and waited for britt. having her in town for the weekend was alot of fun. we did some shopping and then we had dinner at z-tejas and a walmart trip. it was actually a pretty productive day. we even got to experience driving in a down pour and hail storm on the way home and then running from the car to apt in the down pour and hail storm. fun times. i miss my sister.
