Grandpa

Grandpa,
I will always keep you in my heart, I will miss you everyday. I am so thankful for all that you have done for me. You took the role of a father to me and did better than I could have ever asked. I hope that I make you proud. You are my hero. You never missed a game, never missed any event, whether it was big or small. I always knew that you and grandma would be there cheering me on. You were a caring and loving man, with so much passion in your heart. You lived for God and always told us to live for Him too. You cared so much for your family, as we care for you. Even though you won't be able to walk me down the aisle whenever my wedding day comes, I know you will be watching from Heaven. I am happy to say that you lived a great life. I know you are in the best place in the world, jumping and running on streets of gold. Singing praise to the King. Say hello to Kane, tell him I love him too. I love you and will see you when we meet again, in Heaven.
Love forever,
Lindsee

Paradise

This is so where I need to be. The stresses of being a full time student again, working, and just everyday stress, sometimes gets the best of me. So I just think about paradise...
Oh how nice it would be to be laying on a beach, drinking an ice tea, reading a good book, and not having to worry about a single thing would be quite fab right about now....

Learning.

The things I have learned in the past 6 months....

When you hit rock bottom you have to climb out fast!
That things don't always work out for the best.
Your friends and family are the only things that matter in life.
Wake up everyday knowing that it's a new day!
Things always happen for a reason.
Put your trust, your life, your everything in God.
Love those around you!
The only people you need in your life are the ones that are genuine.
Everything will be ok.
Smile, Laugh, Love, Play, Live.

Future Mommy

SOOO....
I have a confession to make. After the past 2 days of shopping...ALOT I ended up buying a lot of baby stuff. Don't worry, I am not prego. However everyone around me is, or already has a child. (My bestfriends) HMMM...well after picking out some really cute Juicy Couture Baby outfits (clearance), I am kinda jealous. I want a baby.
I just think that a baby is the most amazing gift anyone can be given. And I feel out of the circle because I don't have one. My word, Meg, Ashlee, Mindy, Ashley S, and Ashley E, all have babies. Well Ashlee's and Ashley S' is on the way...but still.
I guess I didn't drink the water at the right time. I just know that I will be a great mom and I can't wait.
I have learned a lot by just watching these mommies. I am in aw at how much someone can truely care for another human being. So much that one has written a song...(which me and sister cried listening to)
IDK people, I just love kids so much that I want to spoil my own. I want to be the person that a little one comes running to, their hero, their best friend, their mommy. I want to comfort, hold, play, smile, cry, giggle, and sleep with my own.
But reality check L, you can wait. And until the time is right and until God gives you that little miracle of your own, you can just spoil everyone elses. You are The aunt to Cameron and Aubree. So your time will come. Just enjoy the little ones you have now in your life.
Much Love,
Future mommy L

slacker

Ok, it's official I'm a slacker when it comes to blogging. Hmm... I should really try and be better at it.
Well anywho, I do have to say that I am pumped for the Grey's to start this week. I can't wait. It will be a good season indeed.
Also, I will admit that I am one of those obsessive freaks about the Twilight series and I can't wait for the movie to come out. WOO HOO. I know I am a lil crazy about it. I just hope they make it as good as the book.
So ya. Not much has really happened lately. Same ol same ol. I have committed to a strict workout scheldule! I will succeed and the warm, comfy, cozy bed will not win when the alarm goes off to tell me to go to the gym. Bright and early.
Well I will try and be better at blogging, I promise. But I'm going to pop a movie in and most likely fall asleep in the first 30 min.
Much love,
L

I gotta job...oh yeah!

Well, I didn't get the office job I was wanting. :( But I did get the salon job!! Woo hoo. Still part time, which is totally ok with me! I will however still be looking for another good office job so that I can actually support myself without worry every month if I'm going to make bills.

This past weekend I helped my sister move into her wonderful apartment. It was quite exhausting if I do say so, but not bad. We painted this amour thing on Sunday... come to find out its still not dry and peeling. UHHH!!! That thing took for ever and now its not even drying. What to do. I think we will probably end up spray painting it, which actually shouldn't take as long as painting it with a brush. Let me remind you, it took 10 1/2 hours to paint, and it's freaking peeling. WONDERFUL ! Oh well. (stupid amour)

Chuck's aunt and her husband are coming into town tomorrow from St. Louis so I will be busy the next few days. I'm really excited that they are coming. I love his family. They're actually normal, unlike mine. Lol. We will probably go to the fair a couple days which will be nice since the weather isn't supposed to be too hot. Thank goodness.

Oh yeah, my friend Ashlee is having a girl!!! Her name is Aubree. I can't wait to spoil her. She is going to be amazing, I am sure. And my cousin is having a boy! She thinks she might name him Carter, not for sure yet though. But yeah for babies! I can't wait to meet them both.

Well, that is it for now. Time for bed. More soon.
Much love,
L

Yeah Me!

Well I'll admit it. I have been really slacking on blogging. Just been busy lately, no excuse I know.
Here is a little update. On the 22nd I finally turned 21. Woo Hoo go me. It was exciting. I had a lot of fun hanging out with my friends and family. All the people I love the most was there to help celebrate! I am very grateful for the them all.
So I have had a few interviews. Still jobless but things are coming around. I had two interviews at a salon that I really like. On Monday I had to do a demo haircut and style on a friend. It went pretty well if I do say so myself. The manager said she would give me a call this week so hopefully she will report back with good news. However it is only part time but that is ok with me. It will help me build my clientèle and perfect my skills, or at least sharpen them. It's an industry where everything changes everyday so you will always be learning a new technique or what not.
Also, my sister found a good office job for me too. Hopefully I get it. It's full time so I will actually have a steady income instead of living on the hairstylist check all the time. But it's an amazing place to work and I have only heard good things about it. So if I get it (pray that I do) I will be one crazy busy cookie. I'll do my office job full time during the day and work nights and weekends at the salon. Say hello to no life what so ever. Don't worry though I have been use to this schedule since I was 15 waitressing. So I think I'll manage, I hope I'll manage. It just feels nice that these opportunities have come up. My life, I feel like has been turning around and actually falling in to place for once. I like it.
