Thursday Thoughts

I don't know if I've ever had a song in my dream play so vividly. Colbie Caillat's (sp?!) song "Realize" was playing quite prominently in the background of my dream right before I woke up. It was by far, one of these strangest things to ever happen in one of my dreams. Especially since I only hear that song when I'm working. Has anyone else ever incorporated a song into your dream?

Sometimes so much has been going on that it's hard to explain everything in a witty, flowing post, hence the random montage of what-have-yous this post will have.

---------

I think that it is impossible to be friends with a guy that likes you. Even more impossible when you have no choice but to see said guy because he works with you.

---------


Satan's attacks are coming full force. So many people I know are dealing with his attempts to get us off the path of righteousness, myself included. It's been a hard few weeks. And I'm finally overcoming these attacks, but I'm tired. And annoyed. And guilty. And disappointed. And sad. And angry.

---------

At least, I'm finally feeling.

---------

I'm beginning to hate food and the fact that nothing ever sounds good. It's a struggle to eat everyday. And I know this is my way of controlling something in my life, which is obviously no bueno. I need to give that up to God and learn how to turn to Him for everything instead of other worldly things.

---------

I hate the awkward looks he gives me, males are stooooopid.

---------

I love A Walk to Remember it's so beautiful :D

---------

It's heating up!! And I secretly LOVE it, while everyone around me constantly bemoans the 90 and 100 degree weather. I much prefer it to the cold any day!! Plus, summer nights are absolute LOVE!!

---------

Today, this morning, I sat out on my deck with a cup of coffee and then a smoothie spending time in the Word, and it was peaceful... comforting... a breath of air... just what I needed.

---------

I miss all of you very much!!

---------

Casey is going to Texas now, and I'm rather excited because Texas is warmer than Minnesota ;) And I'd love to visit :D Aaaand... God has a plan :D

---------

This Satuday Casey and I are going to spend the night out in my backyard underneath God's amazing sky, I'm so excited!!

---------

Next Saturday I have a wedding to go to for my cousin!! YAY!!! :D I dreamed about that last night as well.

---------

I'm far from spending my summer the way I wanted to :-P Far from spending it the way I should... Bleh.

---------

Now I'm off! To the great adventure of taking a shower and getting ready for the day, wee!!!

This post sounds like our conversations :) I LOVE it! And I'm excited for Saturday, so excited actually! (however I have loads to do between now and then). A restful, fun, night with my bestie and Jesus is the perfect remedy for the last few week's wounds.

I'm excited and we will win this battle with God!
I love you!

Thanks for your prayers Samantha! I have the full report of Brooke on my blog.

Hey Samantha!
I wish I could learn to enjoy the warm weather, but I never have any. I have hot weather all the time, sometimes starting as early as February! I love cold weather and fall. I hope you and Casey have fun tonight and hopefully find some peaceful relaxation. I don't think I ever spent a summer the way I thought I would. Maybe it'll get better later.

When I dream of music, it's usually because my alarm is going off in my ear...

Thanks, Samantha! Like I told Casey, I hope it turns out like I hope. I am kind of nervous about it- excited, but nervous. I told my mother I can't wait to go to the antique store down the road!!!! You know I'll be posting about it!
So how was the slumber party with Casey?

Hey Samantha! Just me again. I was going through my posts a minute ago and saw that you'd left one on one of my previous post.
My cousin got a pink plastic doll house the year I got my doll house. Hers talked and had all the furniture and dolls. I wanted hers for months and she wanted mine. It took awhile for me to appreciate mine as much I do now. I mean, I always loved mine, but you know..... the grass is always greener. Anyway, she hated most of her toys and I became emotionally attached to most of mine. :)
I love the name you have picked out. It is so pretty. I picked out Adison years ago and won't let go. My sister and brother and I were talking yesterday and I mentioned how most of the girls I write about in my books are named either Adison or Brooke. Not that creative I know, but I can't help it. At least I am not calling each character Paige- a habit my mother says I had with my dolls and imaginary friends when I was younger. Why did I tell you that? Oh well, you should know by now how crazy I am. :)
Wikipedia is where I learn most stuff about old movie actors. A couple of clicks and I have a couple of paragraphs on Van Johnson and Cary Grant and...... TCM is good too!
Well, I'll let you go now!
