End of the Day

It seems I've just been running all day. Tomorrow through next Wednesday will be supremely busy- photo shoots, two quarters of school intersecting, church events, etc. I came home today for about 30 minutes, and then headed back out again. Tomorrow from the morning until 3pm is "free" with the exception of some hardcore laundry and dishes...

By the Lord's grace, I didn't get in a car accident today. I was tempted to honk at the lady though. After all, she was in front of me and couldn't have stopped any quicker at the yellow light. I guess it taught me a little bit about assured clear distance. I'm quite thankful that the Lord gave men the know-how to create breaks. :)

Well- goodnight all. Here's an awesome section from Daily in the Word today...

"Praise the Lord!
Sing to the Lord a new song,
and His praise in the congregation of the godly ones.
Let Israel be glad in his Maker;
Let the sons of Zion rejoice in their King.
Let them praise His name with dancing;
Let them sing praises to Him with timbrel and lyre.
For the Lord takes pleasure in His people;
He will beautify the afflicted ones with salvation."
-Psalm 149: 1-4

Alright... I'm in the vacation mood. There's no way around it, and there's no calming down the urge to take a long walk on the sandy shores of the ocean. We haven't been on a true vacation since last summer... and that may not seem like a very long time to you, but to me... well... let's just say I'm getting antsy.

Chances are that we won't go to the ocean, but to a local lake instead. Let's do a visual comparison, shall we?

Here's Lake Cumberland...

Here's VA Beach...

Are you seeing my dilemma? I most certainly want to be thankful if our plans remain the same (lake vacation), but I sure wouldn't mind being one of those colorfully dressed individuals laying beneath an umbrella, and listening to the crashing of the waves.

Well... I'm off to refine my writing skills in English class...

Some architecture for ya...

Pic of the Day...

A Pic from the Archives

I thought I had my freedom
You didn't even ask
It hit me like a shotgun
Like a cannon blast

You are so elusive
Why you gotta be so detached?
But from the corner of my eye
I thought I saw you look my way
Did you see me looking back?

Oh, I just want to know...

Baby, do you see me
The way I see you?

And why do you give me
So little of you?
I'm out here on thin ice
Hoping I won't break through

You can say you are naive
But I think you know the truth
You've made a prisoner of me
But I'm holding onto the belief
That my time is almost through

Oh, yeah I just want to know...

Baby, do you see me
The way I see you?
-The Way I See You by Bethany Dillon

This picture is beautiful and it makes me want to travel for some reason. There are so many amazing places to visit in the world... I feel like I have yet to graze the surface. Is it normal to have this insurmountable desire to travel? Hmm... Perhaps I'll go backpacking or something. :)
