Did you know that I am a magnet for spiders? Since Sunday I have found at least one spider a day! Two of which were actually in my current room and both sightings took place at night before I went to bed. Consequently, spiders plagued me in my dreams for two nights. Grrr. I really hate spiders. I know that they get on my bed and that drives me nuts! In the middle of the night while I'm peacefully sleeping (not harming a thing) these nasty eight legged creatures crawl on my body. Ugh. Shivers just went up and down my spine just thinking about it so I'm going to change the subject. Okay, how about those Rams? Moving day is just a day away! Yea! I'm looking forward to my new place. Hopefully all with be peaceful and spider free (right, the other spider I found was in my new room, I just can't win).
Do you know what one of my biggest pet peeves is? Bad drivers and South Dakota is full of them! I thought that everyone was taught how to use turn signals, brakes & common sense while driving and yet in real life it seems to be a rarity. Well, I for one will not succumb to the laziness that plagues drivers today. I will use the correct turn signal. I will watch were I am going. I will consider that it is not just my life that is in my hands when I drive. I will avoid big semi's who are too stupid to realize that they can't turn on to 6th street and not hit the car in the turning lane. GRRRR, that one really ticked me off yesterday! I will not show off cool socks that I am wearing while driving (oops that was Leah). Leah would do well to read these too (and everyone who has ever ridden with Leah breathes a huge sigh of relief)! Okay I'm going to stop before Leah kick's my bootie! Have a great day folks!
Okay, I am such a procrastinator! I'm down to five days until I move into my new house and what has been packed? Nada. Zip, zilch, zero, absolutely nothing. Now I'm sitting at my computer realizing the huge chore that I have in front of me and thinking that I would rather do anything except the chore at hand. Even clean or wash dishes! (the dull thud you heard was my mom fainting at the idea that I might actually do dishes with out being forced to do so at gun point).I'm really not that bad but was only using that as example of my intense desire to be doing any but pack. So, that is your cue to come and save me!
Note to Nathan, yes this is Jess. Unfortunately, I'm not sure which Nathan you are (sorry I know about 7 Nathan's). Are you the Nathan from IV, Alaska, Trinity Bible College, Church, High school, or one of the others? Feel free to email me at [email protected]. Well, that's all for now folks ~~ See ya later
Okay, I have a challenge for you all. Our new house needs a name (according to Keith) So I would like to know if you all have any creative non-insulting names (i.e. Chick Coop) for the new IV Women's House. As soon as I figure out how to put in a voting system I will post submitted names. Please email me at [email protected] with your suggestions. This could be fun!
Yea! We got the house on Easy St! So as you can imagine all of us are excited to move in. Now comes the difficult part of packing and moving, a task I abhor. Also to add to the confusion, a garage sale. Sunday we will be cleaning the house...anyone who might feel led to help us is more than welcome to join us at 10:30ish. I'll email our new address because I'm not too keen on posting it in this website. Other than all of that, my life remains the same.
Have you ever sat down and considered just how much God blesses you? Go ahead, try it, I dare you. Now think of how much you deserve each of those blessings. Pretty humbling, huh? One blessing of mine, yesterday, was finding a house. It will be perfect for us.It isn't a done deal yet but I pray it will be soon. Have you all heard the saying "I'm living on easy street?" Well, I can actually say that I will be... literally! The entire process of finding a house that will fit all five of us and a person willing to rent to five women has been a headache to say the least. I have been stressed out to the point of feeling ill everyday for the past week and all the time I've spent trying to encourage the other girls to trust God, I myself, wasn't putting too much faith into the Lord of my life. How hypocritical. Thankfully God doesn't bless us on the scale of how much we deserve. Anyhow, I guess what I've been trying to say is ~ Faith, even the size of a mustard seed, moves mountians! Hopefully soon, when school starts again, there will be one big party at our place!
