Update

Well since the the first of August I've gone camping and been super busy at work. I only work 15 hours a week in the summer but those hours are filled with everything from scanning to copying to cooking food and basically it's been a hectic two weeks and it isn't going to slow down until well into fall semester. I'll be full-time for the fall.

Justin has great news: He got a call yesterday from Brown Machine, he has a job. I was just praying that he would hear from them -- I had pretty much lost hope that he was getting a job there. I'm so excited for him. I don't know what this will bring for the future for him/us but I'm hoping for good things. I don't know what shift he's going to be working and how many days a week but it will be a more regular shift than McDonald's. He will have benefits and a 401K. These are both very exciting.

Kelli is back in the States with us, she had a wonderful time in Ireland.

Sam is still waiting to fly down for an interview in Houston.

Dad is still off work and goes back in for a doctor's appointment later this month (I think).

Grandpa is doing well, adjusting to being an amputee.

Grandma doesn't seem to be adjusting to it as well but she's doing okay. She's having a difficult time living at Aunt Mary's and I can see why.

Ricky and Rochelle are moving to Maryland (Baltimore, I think)

Cory-well I haven't heard anything about him lately.

Andrew seems to be growing up to be a wonderful man who is willing to help anyone.

Mom is getting back to work after our family reunion so she's probably swamped right now too.

Well all is going well with most of the people in my life. I'll update more later but for now I have to head back into work and get some more things done.

Thoughts and Prayers,
Kim

To a Sister

i was reading through some of my old writings that I just left on my computer. There is a lot of randomness in there but this one i still feel is worthwhile To a sister; who is willing to share in my secrets.A sister who; shows me so much love that I don’t know what I would ever do without her.A sister who; shares my tears and my fears. A sister who; tells me that my fears are totally irrelevant and don’t matter in the real world. Guess what, I think I finally get what you’ve been telling me all these years, some stuff just doesn’t matter. I have the “turn around” song on my computer and I can see what it’s talking about, it always reminds me of the skit that you did with Katery and the rest of the counselors, I can hardly stand to listen to this song—I cry almost every time. You tell me how it is and you are perfectly okay in your own skin. You know who you are and I look up to you so much for that because at this point it seems like I will never be able to figure out ...

Chillin'

I'm in a good mood today but I just wish the day would go by faster because I want to go see Justin. i'm chillin' at Qdoba by myself right now and it's pretty boring. i wish I could have had a lunch date with Justin. I really am contemplating skipping my psychology class. Oh how bored i am right now. Hopefully things will pick up soon!

Sigh*

My pastor is not doing well. It's been a while since we found out that he had cancer but he is not gone yet and I am simply irritated by everyone who has let go of him already. I just had an epiphany that maybe I'm supposed to be letting go as well so that God can do his work or so that God can take him home. I don't really feel bad that pastor Jim is dying because he has been in so much pain lately that I just want to see his suffering ended. I'm angry at myself for not feeling bad and not crying. I didn't even cry when I lost grandpa a couple weeks ago. part of me wonders if it's because i don't feel anything. Just wondering, which is something I do a lot of lately. Needed to get this out of my system so I can focus on other things right now. More pressing things, maybe not more important.
