Oh yes this is the life

Update time for those seven people who read my blog- one of which most likely includes my amazing boyfriend- (update number one)!! More on that if you wish in person!

Also, I am happily and trying to be unapologetically unemployed. My two-ish years as a server have been ones of learning so much about myself and I have immense respect for those who are in that business.

Myrtle Beach is a possibility and more bumming around. How can I handle all this free time? Drinking a myriad of beverages and popping through

my reading list so far:

Lectures to my Students - Charles H. Spurgeon
The Face on Your Plate- Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson
The New Birth Order Book- Dr. Kevin Leman
They Speak with Other Tongues- John L. Sherrill
The Art of Friendship: 70 Simple Rules for Making Meaningful Connections- Roger Horchow
Their Eyes Were Watching God- Zora Neale Hurston

Any other suggestions?

a path 'less traveled'
stands waiting. I close my
eyes not to settle for dreaming

but
grabbing hold
to what- I know not

and His majesty and I
jump
