Ahhhhhh....
Home.
I like home.
We went to Indiana for Summer's End, which was fun, 'cause i got to see some people i hadn't seen in a long time. But it was tiring :P And i'm glad to be home!
Tonight, i'm going to be with my beautiful family. Then tomorrow i'm babysitting my precious niece.
Starting school in a week or so, and Camp Michigan is in exactly 11 days :) !!
And that's my life in a nutshell. Pretty much.
With love, i'm outa here.

One tear in the drivin' rain.
Busy, Busy, Busy!
School's starting in a couple weeks, and i'm pretty sure i'm not ready, but i'll survive, i suppose.
We've been doing lots of canning in the past couple days. We got tons of tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, hot banana peppers & zucchini.
So we made salsa, relish, sliced the banana peppers, which we'll probably just use like jalapenos 'cause they're just about as hot! I was taking the seeds out of them without gloves. STUPID. My fingers are currently burning like crazy! :/
***
Anyway. For some reason, i can't wait 'til i'm 15. Maybe just the thought of a new year is refreshing. My idea of 2011 being the best year ever (?????) was false. Maybe 2012 will be better. Hey, a girl can hope. :)
I can't complain, i really can't. I do love my life, it just could be better. I guess it could always be better. . .
Sometimes i just wish things could be a lil different. It's probably my own issues making me have bad days. I just feel so overwhelmed sometimes. Everything is confusing & hazy, my emotions are mixed up, i can feel angry one second, and like crying the next, and laughing the next. No, that's not bipolar, ;) That's being a teen.
I can't believe how fast this year has passed. It's not over yet, but summer's over! It's crazy.
It was raining today, and so i thought of the beautiful song by superchic[k].
*Stand in the rain, stand your ground, stand up when it's all crashing down, stand through the pain, you won't drown, and one day, what's lost can be found, you stand in the rain*
Just know there is a purpose, for those who wait.
That's all i can think to type.
With lots & lots of love, i'm totally outa here.

Love is {here} : Love is {now}
It's August!
Can you believe it? Where has the summer gone? :/
I've been enjoying my part time babysitting job for some of the cutest girls in the world.
(My Neices. Go figure) ;)
Cute, Right?! :)
Anyway. September seems to be the most busy month. We have labor day, Camp Michigan, our Communion, and school starting.
I'm actually almost, sorta, kinda looking forward to starting school. Weird as that sounds. I've always wanted to be so busy that i could just forget thinking about life.
Maybe that time will come as i get older :)
Next year i'm going to be 15! Kinda hard to believe. I'm glad though :) It seems like life has become one crazy contradiction! Seeming like the time is flying by, yet in some areas just going 10 times slower than it should. And i want to grow up, yet take it as slow as possible at the same time. Being a teen is so crazy. Sometimes it's fun, sometimes it's hard, sometimes it makes you miss being 3, sometimes it makes you glad you've come as far as you have. Sometimes it hurts, sometimes it's beautiful.
My Jesus has blessed me so much. I can't thank him enough. Yet sometimes i want to just scream "WHY?!"
We must always remember that God knows everything & He knows that it'll work out. So we must always praise Him, even in the hard times.
The message yesterday was talking on praises, even when it may be the furthest thing from your mind. Because God is sovreign, and he is IN CONTROL! :)
There's so many good things though, in my life. I have an awesome family, i have two beautiful, healthy neices that continually make me smile, i have amazing friends that are so helpful & understanding, but best of all, i have the blessing of knowing Jesus personally & being able to worship him freely.
How amazing is that?
...I thought so :)
I hope that they rest of you are having busy fun summers!
Stay cool everybody, and keep readin' my blog, it means the world to me. :)
With love, i'm outa heree.
