I've been battling the flu since Friday and have finally kicked it! It hit me like a ton of bricks to begin with. Intense nausea, headaches, body aches, just not fun at all. To top things off, Brian and I planned to go to NC on Saturday to see a football game. I ended up sleeping the whole way up, back, and during part of the game, haha. Poor Brian. The game was pretty awful, but, NC, as always, was beautiful. All in all a good trip. We're planning on going camping soon!

Tomorrow, we might have an official date for our wedding. I'm excited! More to come later.

Ah, where to start. I've been working an 8 to 5 job for a little over 2 months now. Although I enjoy having a relatively set routine, I also do not enjoy having a regularly. set. routine....My weeks pass by much more quickly than I'd anticipated, but I suppose time does "fly" by when unnoticed. I really miss being a student. Aside from work, I now lead a senior the youth group at my local parish. Despite my desire to work with these kids, I'm not sure that I've been giving them what they need. I feel so exhausted preparing in the hope that I can anticipate something! I should probably stop that. These past couple of months have been a little rough on my prayer life, needless to say. I need to stop and pray more often. God works better through me when I sit still. If only I had the time to sit still! God, please help me out with that, huh. I can't give what I don't have.
Wedding planning, youth group, grad applications and work--the synopsis of my life for now. It shouldn't be like this, though. I know that there's something more, which is more substantial relationship with God. Either I've forgotten how to ask God for help, or I'm just to stubborn, prideful, or (yikes!) lazy to do it. Either option leaves me fearful.
Anyway, I'd rather not rant on forever and ever, amen. In truth, I'd like to simply get back into blogging to both vent and keep my writer's juices flowing. So, here we go--one post down, God knows how many more to come! Thanks for reading if anyone is out there!

Blessings,
