It's been a little while. I am about to pull my hair out working 2 jobs. Not that the Children's Director part is all that hard...but the parents definately make it a bit more challanging than it should be. Plus a part of me is always wondering in the back of my mind if I'm really the right person for this position. Should I really be getting paid even though I'm doing a sucky job? anywho...thats why I had lunch with the preacher today. Man...I was relieved after that. Everytime we have a chat I just feel so rejunivated! I feel like I can do anything. I guess it's because he supports me so much and has so much faith in me and man...that feels so good! So we'll see how it goes. I just continue to leave in Jesus' hands and let him do all the work. It's really in him that I've managed this long without going insane!
On a brighter note. I spoke with my dad 2 nights ago for the first time in about 3 months and for once, I don't have anything bad to say. He was actually decent. Which is saying a lot for him. He didn't even put me down 1 time! And he asked about Tim...which he never ever does. I was beginning to think he hated Tim, but he asked when we were getting married and even said that he's ready to have some grandchildren. Funny uh? I'm still struggling over that issue. Not the children part..but the marriage part definately! I know I want to marry Tim and I know he wants to marry me...but when I think about that...all I can think about is "who will walk me down the aisle?" Bad uh? I honestly don't know if I want my father to do that. As bad as it sounds. I've even seriously considered asking Carrie's dad to do the honor. He's been more of a father to me than my own dad has. But I guess we'll just see when that day gets here.
Tim and I haven't been doing much lately. We've really been putting lots of money aside to invest into our first home together. We're both ready to buy our first house and it's exciting to know that we both want the same thing. Nothing too big...nothing fancy. We really want to buy something we can invest in and make into something. A "fixer upper" if you will. Lame I know..but we want to look back in 10 - 15 years and see all we've accomplished on our own. We know we don't have much money and our parents are not going to put much money into our future so we have to do it all on our own. Which is fine. Because I know we can! We're going to see Evan Almighty on Friday and I'm so excited! That movie looks so funny! I'll let you all know how it is!

another weekend
man...weekends go by way too fast.
Friday we were going to go to the parade but I didn't get off work until 5:15 or so and I was running around everywhere trying to get ready...but we just didn't make it. I tell ya...working 7:00 to 5:00 can really take a lot out of ya. I was exhausted!! We ended up going to the oar house for dinner and then heading to some small bar on blue angel for "a drink" with some friends. Which ended up lasting till about 12:00 that night. Man...drinking cheap liquor and cheap beer...not a good idea. I felt Miserable all night. Definately won't do that again! ever!
Here's some pictures from that night.
Saturday we woke up around 7:30 and headed out to Pensacola beach. The surf was apparantly "the best it's ever been in Pensacola" I had fun watching all those boys ripping it up! haha! I just laid on the beach and read my book while Tim and all his friends stayed in the water the WHOLE time! I tell ya..I definately need to make some friends with surfer's girlfriends. I definately don't get bored being on the beach.I actually love it! But it would be nice to have someone to gossip with! haha!
We left the beach around 4:30 or so and headed home. We rented night at the museum and definately didn't watch much of it before Tim started snoring. Surfing just wears him out!
Sunday we took the boat out around 1:30 and attempted to fish. The waves were so rough on the way out...I got SOAKED by waves coming over the boat. All I could think about was "local boat capsized in the gulf today." I'm a bit of a chicken when it comes to rough waves. but Thank the Lord...We survived!! I got a little too much sun this weekend but it was all worth it. I always have fun when I'm outdoors. I guess being stuck inside all day makes me love the outdoors even more!!
