Good Friday

I realized that I blog more for work than I do on my personal blog.. (well I format and put together the blogs, details!) So I will try to do better about updating.


Today is Good Friday and I'm at work on my lunch break. It has been crazy busy all week long, which has been fun, because I've seen ALOT of students and ALOT of prospective students, but I feel like I haven't gotten anything done! Hopefully I'll get more accomplished next week.


Tonight I am going to our Good Friday service at church. I'm really looking forward to it. I went a few years ago and really enjoyed it, but the past few years I have left early in the evening to go to my parents for the weekend so I have missed it. Tonight I am going home late, around 9ish, so I can attend the service. Its a very solemn time of really thinking about what happened so many years ago and the ultimate sacrifice that Jesus made for us, and his love for us. I think we all get caught up in the Holidays, getting together with family and friends and all the "fun" parts of it, but we never take time to remember why we celebrate and exactly WHAT we should be celebrating. So tonight, I will go to church and be reminded of why we celebrate Easter, and what Jesus has done for me.


After church, I will mentally switch gears and go meet my friend Jennifer and her two little kids. She just had a baby less than two months ago and I get to snuggle and cuddle with baby Tyler! I am sooo excited! I love bebbies!! :)


Speaking of cuddling I hung out with Katie and Joey last night. Sammy had allready went to bed by the time I got there. :( Joey is just so adorable. He is always so willing to share his video games with me, and makes me play them, even though I usually do horrible! He coaches me through them, which is hilarious, because he takes it so seriously, but his head is always in the way so I cant see!! And he wonders why Charity never wins any games.. :)


After we played games we listened to some music, specifically Joey's song, Slow Fade. He loves that song! We cuddled together and sang together untill the middle of the song when he decided it was time to break dance. I wonder if Casting Crowns knows that tehy have music you can break dance to? Someone should tell them. It was hilarious, he tried to do the worm, but, uh, well, the kid was going backwards! He never got the whole go forward part. It was so funny! Seriously, when I have kids, I won't need a tv at all. They are sheer entertainment!!


And a final super duper HAPPY HAPPY NOTE!! My friend, my Skipster, LISA is ENGAGED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mark finally popped the question on their 4 year anniversary Weds night. I about screamed when i found out!! I am SOOOO excited for Lisa and Mark, and can't wait to help her plan her wedding!! WOOT!! And just for a point of reference here is me and the skipter! pimp and skip!!

I love Jesus & Sephora!!

 I am not a morning person. There are very few things I will get up early for. Friday morning I got up while it was still dark outside. My alarm went off at 6:45 am and let me tell you I have not seen that time for a very very long while! However, something really exciting was happening that morning! Sephora came to Tippecanoe Mall! THATS RIGHT FOLKS SEPHORA!!!!!!!! I love me some Sephora! Yes, it is expensive, but the quality is amazing, and in reality I spend less on Sephora products than trying to find something that works with my wacky skin at the drug store. I have been looking forward to this for weeks. I set my alarm early and ran out the door in a hurry! I got to the mall at 8:02 am. Sephora was opening at 10. I was not the first person there! I was about the 12'th person there and at first we were all smushed into this doorway which was really not comfortable at all. Thankfully the kind people at JcPenney let us inside the store so we could line up outside of Sephor...

Who needs a Knuckle anyway?!

 If you are squeamish and do not like pictures of fingers stitched up, now would be the time to close this post and come back another day!  I put this picture of my struggling get up for my shower first so that no one has to see the stitches if they don't want to. Call me kind :) Also, this get up did not work at keeping my finger dry.  So last night i was opening a box of books, and accidentally opened my knuckle as well. It's funny, it didn't really hurt at the moment. I felt it of course, but it wasn't horrible pain. Blood started gushing and I ran for the bathroom to get some tp on it and bandaids. I do NOT do well with blood and seeing all of it made me a tad bit light headed. I managed to find some gauze and tape and after looking at my finger and noticing that i could see INSIDE my finger and the knuckle skin was WIDE open, I almost passed out. hahahaha.. it was GROSS! I dr'd up my finger and tried to decide if it would heal on it's o...
