Hey guys, so its definitely been awhile since I wrote anything... Hopefully you haven't missed me too much... But the truth is I just haven't had anything to say... I could update you on my life but that hasn't changed much...
- waitressing
- slowly paying down bills
- still banned from America
- living with family
- looking for work
- praying over my dieing car
- got my wisdom teeth pulled
Pretty well the life of any recent graduate from university these days right??? Well aside from that I just want to say I've had a pretty incredible day. :) one of those days where I have so much to say and well... I'm on a plane with strangers who are trying to sleep because from where we just took off from, its 12:20am... Yay for red eye flights to time zones ahead of us eh???
Well I started my travels @11:30am and its definitely been about 12hrs... We still have about 3hrs till landing and another 4-5hrs after that to drive... It's going to be a long day.... So why am I writing about it now saying how incredible its been??? Well let me tell you.... :)
I woke up early... Well... 8am... But considering I went to bed around 1am I'd say it's petty early... I finished packing, took a shower, have I ever mentioned I am in love with my hair??? I know I know... I'm incredibly weird... I'll be the first to admit it... Well I got to have breakfast and chat with grandpa for a few minutes... Dropped off some of my favorite movies for a friend to watch while I'm gone, stopped by grandma's work to pick up some things, ran into a friend at the gas station and started my drive to Kelowna...
I've been trying to find a place to park my car for the week while I'm gone and someone to give me a ride to the airport... Well yesterday we found someone. A lovely couple... I got to their house early and they invited me in, we visited, ate plums, I got to look at their new album of a family cruise they took for their 50th anniversary, they drove me to the airport and my Baby's fate lies in their hands as I left my jeep with them for the week... At the airport I met a lady going to Vancouver for a work conference hoping to get a promotion and move that way soon. We visited and she left. By the time my flight was ready to go I realized... I have a really long layover in Calgary... So since my cousin had texted me earlier that day I gave her a quick call and guess who I got to see at the airport! :D we didn't have alot of time since she had an appointment and then I had a flight... But we did have enough time to go through photos of her wedding that she got a couple days ago. :) yay for new pictures for my Facebook. ;)
On both my flights I've had wonderful company... We talk for awhile till the plane takes off then everyone breaks off to do their own thing... Read, sleep, journal, watch the football game, finally write the Maid of Honour speech, etc...
For me on this 2nd flight... I'm so distracted I can't sleep... Pray for me in the morning... Mercy, it'll be a long day :P but I'm distracted because I can't stop thinking about how incredibly blessed I am...
- waitressing, and meeting a ton of cool people, networking and making money
- slowly paying down bills, and watching a steady flow of money wash through my bank account
- still banned from America, and living in the best place on earth
- living with family, and enjoying their company
- looking for work, and exploring what work to me really means
- praying over my dieing car, and being constantly reminded of my incredible network of friends and family who help me with repairs, rides and remembering all the times I have spent with them over repairs on my car
- got my wisdom teeth pulled, and being reminded that I have an incredible God... Who sometimes has to pull things out of our lives to make us better...
Today has been a day where Kimmy feels loved and so incredibly blessed... And I couldn't have imagined it getting any better when I got on this planet... But you know at some point while I was singing a song by Steve Green about Entering in & surrendering to the spirits call... Finding peace within... Inner peace is something that I haven't had alot of these days... But today... I have.. And as we started flying out of Calgary, I started journalling.. And thanking God for the life He's given me... Cause its been rough lately, but its also a reminder of how He has been able to bless me each and every day... But then we started flying over Saskatchewan... And I swear the skies started dancing with the song in my heart... The Northern lights started shining and dancing across the sky... It's the perfect end to a perfect day...
When the oceans rise and thunders roar
I will soar with You above the storm
Father you are King over the flood
I will be still, know You are God
