meant to be

You and I were made to worship,
You and I are called to love,
You and I are forgiven and free.
When you and I embrace surrender,
You and I choose to believe,
You and I will see

how we were meant to be

Before the day
Before the light
Before the world revolved around the sun;
God on high stepped out into time and
wrote the story of his love for everyone.
He has filled our hearts with wonder,
so that we will always remember—

You and I were made to worship,
You and I are called to love,
You and I are forgiven and free.
When you and I embrace surrender,
You and I choose to believe,
You and I will see

how we were meant to be

All we are and all we have is all a gift from God we see
Brought to life,
We open up our lives,
To see the majesty and glory of the King.
He has filled our hearts with wonder,
so that we will always remember—

You and I were made to worship,
You and I are called to love,
You and I are forgiven and free.
When you and I embrace surrender,
You and I choose to believe,
You and I will see

how we were meant to be…

You and I

holy crap, weekends off

Ok, so I took the job at Corporate, which means that, although I will have two jobs, I will work from 9-5, Monday thru Friday. LIKE A NORMAL PERSON..........like a grown-up. Wow, does that mean I'm grown up? So, anyway, in celebration of me having weekends off, here's my list of things I want to do this summer, WEEKEND things I want to do this summer......

• SLEEP IN
• go floating, numerous times.
• sleep in
• go garage sale-ing......never been except to the one in our front yard (yes, it was in our front yard, yet it wasn't ours.....)
• go shopping for my birthday (mysha always takes me shopping for my birthday (the 6th of July, in case you were wondering ;) and we can go this year! yay!)
• go hiking.
• go bike riding. (a lot!)
• sleep in.
• make cards.
• garden.
• sleep in.
• stay out late friday night!
• go floating.
• go to the farmers market.
• go away for a weekend with my husband (shocking, I know, that I want time away with my husband!)
• actually see my husband once in a while!
• sleep in.
• go to baseball games. (with my husband)

well, that's all I can think of right now, I'm just very excited (can you tell?) and, oh, in case you were wondering, we leave for vacation in4 and a half days....... haha!! :) so excited! and i'm totally riding that ride again (did it twice last year.....i know!)

ulcer-vision

So, I think my ulcer is back. Last time he was here, I got in the habit of calling it "the baby"..... so when my tummy hurt, I just said the baby was angry, or when Mat hit me in the tummy, I just told him the baby didn't like it..... I think this time, I'll actually give it a name. Any suggestions? I could call it Sprite, since that all it really seems to like lately..... Arg, I hate being sick like this.....HATE IT! So that's probably what little Sprite looks like....Ain't he cute? I wish he would just go away and stay away.... Hopefully someday.

I watched Britney Spears last night on Dateline..... what made it even better was that Mat was still at work, so I could watch it instead of the basketball game. I really like her. I thought she was kinda trashy sometimes, but I really enjoyed watching the interview last night. She was so sad at parts of it, talking about the dang paparazzi..... I hope she can figure out how to disappear and raise her children out of the spotlight..... away from all the drama and stress that Hollywood is..... Otherwise they may develop ULCERS!!! :) Part of me feels like people like that, celebrities and such, bring that on themselves, that they could walk away from it at any time. And while that is true, most of them are simply doing what they love. No one would ever ask a doctor or any other occupation to walk away from doing what they love, so why should we ask people like that to do the same? Privacy is something everyone deserves, no matter how famous or great they are.....

Wow, I'm so philosphical tonite..... must be Sprite's influence on me..... so I guess he is good for something....

I'm Audi 5000..... lata

thunderstorms and randomness

thunderstorms are really sweet. they've been increasing in frequency lately. and i love it. lightning is great too. i really think i missed my calling as a storm chaser.....i'd love to do that. i'd totally pee my pants every day, but it'd be great. (chasing storms, not peeing my pants every day)
my darling mysha is back from her vacation, oh how i missed her. i really love her and her friendship. and her hugs are awesome!!
so, working two jobs sucks. i like both of my jobs (ok, i love working at love inc, and murdochs is ok) but working so much sucks! and trying to do crystal's wedding invitations with out anymore crises.... that's my main goal.
would you buy cards from "fresh cut greetings"? that's a good business name, right?
i love that my sister is going to cosemetology school...... i've gotten my hair foiled and acrylics put on my nails...... for free. and she did an awesome job at both. it's going to suck when she gets out and it's her source of income so i actually have to pay for things, but it'll at least be cheaper! :)
john tesh radio show..... time to go!
(when it comes on, that means it's 7:00 and time to get the h out of here!!)

new job part 2

Ok, so I got the job at Love INC, actually started on Tuesday. It's a polar opposite from my current job (actually, former job of cashiering--done cashiering yesterday!) there are three phone lines (as opposed to 6+) no music (as opposed to country blaring all the time) and no rude customers...... It's amazing. I really enjoy it, it's a good calm down sort of time for me, very theraputic. And I go home feeling like I've helped people in some other way than merely taking their money, supporting their copenhagen habit, or help them chose new cowboy boots. It's really a good feeling, helping people with real needs, real life things that are urgent, and almost a matter of life or death. Getting your gun safe delivered today just isn't a matter of life or death, no matter what other people think!! So, that's exciting for now.
Now the real dilemma (is that spelled right?!) I have been encouraged, asked, by two people from our corporate office to apply for a part time accounting position over there (at Murdochs). And it wasn't just two random people, but one of the HR directors and one of the heads of the Accounting department. So, I applied, after Mat prodded me. He said even if you get offered the job, you can just turn it down. So, I applied. And, of course, my mind is running a million different directions, figuring out how I'm going to do all that. I'd more than likely have to quit at the store, having three jobs would be just too much. I just hate quitting jobs, ya know? And after three years, it'd be super hard. But, that's my newest excitement, and thought provoking-ness. It's hard, it seems like when it rains it pours...... where was this job 6 months ago?!?! Oh well, we'll see what happens
Mat's family is in town for Katie's graduation, I have babies to hold tonite!!!
I'll post pictures when I get them, I'm so excited!!
