Oh What a Month!

I kinda took a little back from blogging there for awhile. The last; well I don't even remember how long it' even been, oh well. Well, I was just so busy and when I wasn't busy I just didn't want to blog so there you have it.
Since The last post there have been Christmas programs, Finals, and my trip to Florida. Christmas programs went so well! Everyone was amazing at what they were supposed to be doing. Finals...well they went and that's about all I have to say about that. Now, my trip to Florida...which was to visit Lizzy's' family was the best. I absolutely love it done there. I hope that someday I am able to go down again. I will put up pictures when I can.

Getting Some Mud on the Tires

Life just doesn't always go as planned. Does it? One moment you have everything figured out and then next thing you know. The road has hit its end and you don't know whether to turn back or just off road it for awhile. This is exactly where I am, going off road.

Like Pretend

To much time has been spent
Now it just feels like pretend
We came so close but didn't
Reach the end

Those day have gone by when
There was no reason to cry
It seems like more and more
I find myself at your door

To much time has been spent
Now it just feels like pretend
We came so close but didn't
Reach the end


This isn't where I should be
Standing at your door
Tears on my face bagging
You for more, you always say
that it will never work
I wonder if its because


work in progress...I don't know where I'm going with this one

Goodtimes Are Always Had By All

This past weekend I went up to Chelle's house. I love going up to Amish country! The ride up there sometimes seems forever and a day long, but soon enough you are there in that beautiful place. We got up there Friday night and didn't really do much, there's always the usual talking and up packing and a movie. Saturday morning Chelle and her Mama had a wedding to go to so Elizabeth watch a movie while Josh and I watched a different one, and chatted to some people online. After they got back from the wedding Chelle, Josh, Lizzy and I went to Sunny Slope, the bulk food store and into town to get some pizza...This was amazing pizza! After talking and eating we decided to go into Canton and eat again....food is a big part of life you know? No we just wanted to do something away from the house, so we just drove until we found something to do. That night when we got back to the house...goodtimes happened....we all laughed so hard about dumb things. Sunday morning we went to church. There we heard Pastor Flynn preach(tell a story) about Easter. It was all the long so we got out a little bit early. Then went back to the house for a great Sunday dinner....BBQ chicken...awww....It was Chelle birthday on Monday, so we had some presents to unwrap and cake to eat. Afterwards it was nap time. When nap time was over it was time to make that long drive back to Cinny.
All in all....it was another great weekend in Amish country.

Vine St.

I LOVE my ministry! I can't believe that God has put me in such a great place to minister to people at. I would have never in a million year have thought that I would love working with intercity people. I know that isn't were I'm going to spend the rest of my life, but it's right where I need to be.
On Sunday morning I cook for all the people. It's so great to hear people say that they like my food, even though I usually don't let being praised. I find it very nice to hear people say thank you and that I did a good job.
Now, on Sunday afternoons...I do Vine Kid's Klub. This isn't something that I ever thought that I would be doing...but the Lord opened the door and I walked through it. He is my help when it come to this. There's no way I'm doing it on my own. I'm so thankful for His help not only at Kid Klub but at cooking as well....I know that God keeps His promises to everyone.

Found My Muse!

Writing poems and such isn't a strong suite for me. I'm not good with words on paper usually, but today I started to write again. I haven't done this in some time.

Staring at the people outside my window
Wishing I could hear their stories but
I just stay right where I am
Cuz, I know that they will never understand
The reasons why I can't just let go
Of everything I am

Seeing their smiling faces and
Knowing that I may never have that feeling
The tears start coming and once again

I'm staring at the people outside my window
Wishing I could hear their stories but
I just stay right where I am
Cuz, I know that they will never understand
The reasons why I can't just let go
Of everything I am

This isn't anything that is special, but something that I'm working on.
I'm so happy that I have once again found my muse. Oh the beauty to be found in the written word. I'm sure that I will have more to write about in coming days.

HomeSick

This song is pretty much me right now. I've never want to be somewhere else more.

You're in a better place, I've heard a thousand times
And at least a thousand times I've rejoiced for you
But the reason why I'm broken, the reason why I cry
Is how long must I wait to be with you

I close my eyes and I see your face
If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place
Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
I've never been more homesick than now

Help me Lord cause I don't understand your ways
The reason why I wonder if I'll ever know
But, even if you showed me, the hurt would be the same
Cause I'm still here so far away from home

I close my eyes and I see your face
If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place
Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
I've never been more homesick than now

In Christ, there are no goodbye
And in Christ, there is no end
So I'll hold onto Jesus with all that I have
To see you again
To see you again

And I close my eyes and I see your face
If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place
Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
Won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
Won't you give me strength to make it through somehow

I've never been more homesick than now


I don't know the Lord's way's and I won't for sometime. All I know is that I miss you a lot.
