Where I'm at

So the plans for figuring out the purpose for my life didn't so much happen this week. However, it has been a week of healing. I realized a lot of things. Some of them were harder to deal with than others but still good. I've been dealing with Laurie things and other things. I've decided that no matter how much I try to "process" I don't think it's going to help. I can't take a day just to process and move on with my life. It will be an ongoing process as a part of my life. I will not let Laurie's death consume my life. I will have my good days and I will have my bad days. I will not let the sadness consume me. That is no way for me to live.

This has been a pretty relaxing week. It started out with hanging out with Aimee and Eve on Monday night. Taking a trip to Julie Ann's with my parents on Tuesday night. Spending the day with mom, going to Newc and a support group on Wednesday, and having a late night conversation with Kim. Hanging out with Mandy and Andy last night. Going to the park with Aunt Barb and Hayden boy today. All of these little people interactions have made my week. I love spending time with people that I care about, people I can be real with, people I can cry with, people I can laugh with, and people that make my life great!!!

I don't know what God has in store for my life but I know that His plan is much better than mine. I know that He is there to waddle through the crap of life with me. And I know that He puts other people in my life to waddle with me. I thank Him daily for all of my friends and family. I love you all so very much and I hope you know that!!

Steph,

Little girl, now young woman who I have known for all your life...You are so wise to realize you don't have to figure your whole life out in a week. There's a whole lifetime to do that.
Congratulations on your graduation. A great accomplishment and I am soooooo proud of you. I love you, too.
