Praise Habit

So I went to Taylor health today and the Dr. said I must have a virus of some sort. I have tonsils that are swollen, blocked sinuses and all that lovely stuff. So you know what this means??? I get to rest a lot! Yay!!! And by yay I mean this is going to suck! I hate having to slow down because my body says so. I want done with this semester so I don’t have to worry about it anymore.

In other news, I’ve been fighting with a bunch of feelings that are not fun. I feel alone sometimes and I don’t like it one bit. Erin has been amazing through all this and I’m truly grateful for having her in my life. Tomorrow is 4 months for her and I as well Things will get better, its just a matter of enduring through this and waiting to see what happens. I’m trying to find God in all of this and I don’t know where I can find Him right now. Its really hard right now because I don’t feel like I have really anyone to share with other than Erin. I just feel really confused right now about everything.

Well my laptop is about to die and I have some other homework to work on now so until next time.

Happy New Year everyone! I’m back from my trip to Des Moines with Erin. It went rather well. Erin and I got to spend New Years together and yes there was a New Years kiss as is tradition. That was Saturday night. On Sunday Erin and I went to church. This was a Westview church and they are members of the Reformed Church in America (RCA) and was different than the United Methodist Churches that I’m becoming accustomed to. Other than church, there was some “excitement” as my car decided to light up its check engine light. This freaked me out and I checked everything I could with Dad. We drove all around West Des Moines and Urbandale and didn’t find a thing wrong with the way it drove. It was strange! This was very good news though Moving on to Monday. Erin and I started our journey back to Springfield. But on the way back we stopped by and saw a bridge of Madison County (we would have stayed but it was cold and muddy). Now I’m back here watching TV and writing this post after a day of work. Things are getting back to normal as break winds down and school starts back up. I’m starting up my last semester of my undergraduate career in 2 weeks. In the meantime I’m going to have to get my resume out there and find a job. Maybe I’ll stay in Springfield or I might move out of town. I’m not sure yet (it depends on a few variables). But time is running out so I need to get my act together.

Well, its been a very long time since I’ve posted last and I hope this isn’t like the last time. What has been going on in my life? Well a lot and not much at the same time. After the break up with Jeni, I went through a period of depression and then I realized that I didn’t have to be like this and kind of snapped out of it. Then I met someone, she was moving into the Wesley house and her name is Erin. I helped her move in and then about a month later we started dating. We are still together now and are very happy. Its strange how fast these things happen.

Now lets move on to what is going on with me in general. I’ve been feeling like an outsider at the Wesley Foundation as of late. I’ve tried everything but I’ve realized that it is time for me to move on. I’m still going to stay fairly active at Wesley but I’m slowly going to step down as the Praise Band leader as the spring semester progresses. I’m going to miss what this ministry has brought but I am excited to see what is going to happen through this ministry. I know God is going to move.

Well that is a brief update for all 2 of my readers. I’m hoping to continue to post more often (I have time now that school is out for break).
