I never get excited for the holidays, EVER. I tend to get so disappointed about them that I just stopped getting excited so that I wouldn't have to be disappointed....well for some reason, probably due to certain medications and such, I am actually really looking forward to Christmas this year!
I even wanted to bust out Christmas music and decor before Thanksgiving which I have always been opposed to.
Thankfully, I have a boyfriend who just won't have it...so my apartment is still bare, and lacks a wreath, the scent of pine, and mistletoe. That will ALL change in a couple days though. I will have Nat King Cole on repeat for as long as I can stand it, AND I am even going to have treats on a weekly basis, if I don't eat them all before a weeks up, for my visitors.
I can't wait to go cut down a tree...I think Ben and I are going to go out to the woods and just cut down a tree for free so we don't have to spend a butt load of moolah. I think Jami should come too, since she's my little favorite peanut.
ALSO, could it be??? We had snow before the holidays even happened!? A whole week off school, no assignments and no stress!!! OMG!
I love life sometimes, and today might be one of those times.
God is good!

Live your Adventure
I would like to think that I am a pretty adventurous person. Perhaps not the type of person that can go go go, and would do anything spontaneously, although at times, in the right moment....I do some crazy stuff. I enjoy rest, relaxation, quiet hours to recharge my batteries if I have been around people for too long.
But I love people. I love their stories, their history, their passions, what gets them thinking the way they think. I love seeing the world. I like to feel like I am a brand new kindergarten child in a city where I have to start from scratch learning about it.
I feel like I haven't been on an adventure in some time, and when that happens I feel like I lose myself a bit. I am meant to do these things, I have to be, or the thoughts and regrets of not going here or there wouldn't bother me so much.
I need something new in my life...or maybe something old that hasn't had the chance to be out and about because of all the demands on life as it is right now...??
I miss God and the adventures He would take me on. When I went to Texas it was just me and Him. When I went to France it was just me and Him. When I went to Mexico it was just me and Him. He likes to be my traveling companion, and in moments of loneliness for a tangible person to be with, I have said I would rather wait on adventure until I can bring along someone I can see....I don't think that was a good idea to say.
I want to be open to adventures whether someone will go with me or not. God is always with me, and He will be the best traveling partner I could ever have.
Now where to dream of going...?????
