baaad week

should i skip my 4o'clock class to breathe and plan an escaping adventure to the appalachian mountains for friday? or should i take on the responsibility and work to write some piece of a 2 page paper and go to my third class of the day?

Duvet Day.

My dear roomie bought me this amazing duvet cover from Ikea about one month ago and I have just now delighted our room with it! Happy October!

Lonely Parts

I love you and miss you, oh sooo much!

Truely, I hate where I am at right now in my thoughts and greatly miss a time of seemingly more understanding. Pleeeeease Lord, change something! Honestly, either I need to change or God needs to change, and that seems like an easy conclusion to arrive concerning which of us will most probably stay the same. But change for me doesn't seem to be in the near future, or at least positive change.

set free!

I discovered this Richmond, VA ministry yesterday at church when there was a representative visiting East End. What an incredibly encouraging ministry here in the city!!

shhhhhh.

I gotta do more things in secret. That's such a hard task for me, I really love to externally process, to hear other opinions and feel support. But, recently I have been very convicted that I need a bigger "secret" life. God wants us to draw into an intimate friendship with Him and keep alot of that secret and He will choose what to reveal to anyone else. And often our secret times are shown through what happens in public, people can tell that you are either doing more or less behind the scenes from what you do on stage!

I wish there were a photo I could attach with this post, a CHAT one of course, but sadly my card reader has disappeared into the summer..so alas all you have are my words. neednt there be anymore.

I PAINTED!

figuring things out on your own is tough.

I've been packing, very slowly packing...okay so mostly just listening to music and catching up on some netflix. This Sunday; however, I will officially be living in Church Hill for the next 10 weeks and 14 North Harrison #2 will, for my portion, be clean and empty!

It's been a joy thus far to have an empty week of cleaning, seeing, erranding, duct taping loose ends, and residing wonderfully in Richmond. I've been surprised by myself for not feeling overly needy and also disappointed with having wishes not congruent with godly, independent life. That's probably a silly sentence. haha, o well!

AHH Yes! and ROCKBRIDGE was a DREEEAAAAMM! Hallelujah for God being at work with and within sinful man!
