Time is money

Or something like that. I have very little of either, so maybe that is true. 

Rant:

I only have so many hours in a day. Once I put you on the calendar, you are THERE, and your spot is reserved. But please respect that, and don't get mad when you bail and I don't have a slot left for you. Lets look at my week next week:

Sunday: Church till 12, lunch plans, 2 @ B-school to do three projects, Meetings at 6:30 and 7:30

Monday: Class 9-3:50, Meetings at 4, 6, and 9.

Tuesday: Class 9:30-11, Work at 11, Meetings at 2, 4, 5:30, 7, and 8:30.

Wednesday: Class 9-3:50, Leaving town the moment I possibly can until Sunday.

So the next time you bail on someone and then get mad when they don't have time to reschedule you, please remember that some people actually have a lot to do, and please respect their time. If I could stay up 24 hours a day every day I would, but lets face it, life does not work that way.

End Rant.

Sorry, really not in that bad of a mood. School is done for the week, and I have some fun stuff planned today... including cleaning and working out now that I have an unexpected free block in my day! :) (no, I don't enjoy cleaning that much, but I had 4 tests in 3 days this week, so my floor is pretty much completely hidden, and its driving me insane!)

Its been a pretty much amazing week. 

"But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed" (2 Corinthians 4:7-9, NIV).

I love this verse. It has been a long time favorite, probably since I found out the band Jars of Clay got their name from it wayyy back in middle school.  Its such a beautiful picture of how God holds us during the worst of times, and never gives us more than we can handle- with his strength. And there have been some storms in my life in the past months and years... some of them rather big. And yet, I made it. I am stronger, and I know where my strength comes from. I may look like just an every day jar, but in His strength, I can stand up to a lot... and be used for a lot.  

Lately, I have been able to see the rainbows in my life... I feel the storms are over (for now). Yesterday was honestly one of the most exciting days of this year, if not all of college. It was just one of those days where lots of unexpected things happened that made me smile and giggle and  jump around like a little kid. And plans for this summer are unfolding... its looking like I am going to be driving down to San Antonio a lot to see some of my favorite people, and then lots of fun with the girls here in Waco too. I'm just so excited right now, so many cool things are happening and doors are opening that I didn't know would ever open. God is just so amazing, and I am so pumped about what he is doing in my life right now!!! :)
