Weekend to Myself

TGIF,

I can say for a change in my life, at least from the past two years, that I am busy. I am tired because I've been running around so much, I am sore from being outside half of that time, and even though it doesn't always feel the greatest, it feels wonderful to me.

I think it really hit me Wednesday, we had just ended practice and the last girl had left, I sat in my truck to leave, and it hit me, "If I had continued to live the life I had been living prior to these past few months. I would not have Pleasant Hope, High Street, new friends, the Truth Project." None of it would of existed because at the time I was settling for less then what I was capable of doing.

It's never felt so good to be truly worn out.

I've got the weekend to myself. Study some tomorrow, work on a research paper tomorrow, clean my room, and that's about it. Sunday I'm going to High Street (I wasn't there last week so I'm anxious to get back), after church I'm either going to my aunt and uncles house or Panera (whichever will take me...haha). That way I'll be in Springfield for The Truth Project and not have to drive between here and Springfield multiple times. Sunday should be a relaxing day for me, either place of where I go.

I want to say that God answers prayers. A few days ago Coach M and myself were worried that we weren't going to have enough girls to have a team this season. We were dealing with 10 girls, we need at LEAST 11. Well, that day, while in class, I wrote down a simple prayer, "God here my voice, send us players." That was on Wednesday. By next Monday we're looking at about 17, and that doesn't include two of our players already that'll be gone with show choir. That was a huge sigh of relief for both of us. That was something huge that stuck out to me.

I want to type more, but my eyes aren't wanting to stay open. Warm bed, cold air, John Mayer, setting up perfectly to ship me off the sleep. Don't worry, those 2 or 3 of you that actually read this, the "mushy-gushy" stories are coming back. However, let me get my feet planted and all, and figuring out what is going on with life for the moment.
