So today begins week two of sleeping in, taking time to sip on my coffee, and sitting around in my robe while I do some Internet surfing. Sounds fabulous, right? Not so much.

See, there is this one factor looming over my head...I'm jobless. Those two little words seem to take away all the joy I would typically find in being lazy and enjoying the luxuries of sleep, coffee, and my fuzzy pink bunny robe.

Some mornings I indulge my self pity and sit on the computer "hunting" for jobs (while I also make the most of my time catching up on my favorite blogs, too). But because I know I would hate myself if I live every morning like that, I usually get up, shower, and get out of the house. Usually, I'm headed to Starbucks where the Internet connection is better and there are people talking loudly. At home there is the overwhelming silence that allows me to think about all the worst case scenarios like running out of money and no body wanting to hire during the "recession." Here I feel a tad more productive and looking half-way decent in case there are errands to run, or the possible but not probable chance an interview comes up.

I can hear your comments now, "Have faith, He will provide." Thanks, I know. He has done so so many times before even for the little and insignificant things. I guess the hardest time to trust isn't in the big life altering decisions that you really have no control over, but in the times of waiting to simple see what is next, what is best.

Mini Update

In case I haven't told you the story yet, I am no longer and Internet Producer at LifeWay. I have taken a Nanny position for a beautiful baby girl. I'm attending graduate school this Fall to earn my masters in secondary education. I hope to teach high school English and journalism.

By the world's standards, this is crazy enough to commit me. But I wish I could share with you the unbelievable peace that the Lord has given me along with His direction. This year has continuously been a year of unpredictable change. I wish I could tell you more, but these things are better shared in person (I talk with my face and hands)!

I just wanted to share how the Lord was moving and blessing me in my Ever After.

"Welcome to the real world" she said to me.

It's been way to long since I have written. I know, unacceptable. But honestly so much has been going on. I know the winter months are supposed to be the slow and dreary times, but I have been non stop. I'm amazed I've even had time to breathe (ok, that is an exaggeration), I think I've just been lazy too. That is what winter does to me, it makes me lazy. My laziness = my house looking like an awful mess, but that is another story.
Luckily, the clouds are parting, the windows have been rolled down, and the mercury is rising. In an over dramatic way, I feel that new life has been breathed into me. What does this mean?

1. Planning for the summer concert season has begun! On the schedule we have
James Morrison

Paramore & No Doubt


Coldplay
I'm super excited about all of the shows and hope to put some more on the schedule. If you have any suggestions, let me know.
2. I've been making plans for another move. I'm moving in with my sweet Katrina in the fall, and life will never be the same. LOL.
3. This weekend I'm doing the Nashville thing and I'm finally going to a casting call. Cliche I know, but you only live once. And if you live in Nashville, you have to take advantage of the wild and crazy opportunities that come your way. The casting call is for The Real World season 23. I know I'm not "their type," but anything could happen. I figured the experience would be like no other, and I'm bound to meet some interesting people. I will have a full report on Monday, so be sure to ask.
4. And it seems that my hair seems to change with the seasons. So for now it is reddish, simply cause it can be a screaming fuchsia because I am a working professional. A girl can dream.
