Knitting... Schooling... Life.

So, it's been quite busy...

I've taken on knitting and it's rather interesting how I now have like 15 scarves to make by Christmas? hahaha I officially issue the disclaimer that if you don't get it for Christmas, you will get it as a birthday present to use for a following winter season... hahaha :) Those of you that have birthdays before Christmas this year will get them next year haha :)

Schooling is intense. I have never seen so much work nor have I wanted to but I need to pass this year and doing it may kill me but I'm in it for the long haul... Continued prayers are very helpful, thanks!

Life is interesting. I have had eye-opening discussions in the past 24 hours that have challenged me and spoken a lot of truth to my life. One of them involved my relationship with KChan. To be completely honest, we both see marriage as a possibility and yet, there are so many things that we still need to get done before we're even ready for that. Our MA's, teaching and tenure, added experience, finances... And yet, life's worries take so much out of us... But despite that, I am realizing more and more that God's going to do this when He sees fit and that He's got this all planned out and will help us figure it out. It's not like He will stop providing for each of us or stop shaping us to become exactly who we need to be before marriage comes into the picture... Yes, we both have school and we both have many goals that we want to accomplish beforehand but I am comforted in knowing that God has my back...He's got all of this covered and doesn't want me to worry about it right now...

"I've never said that I won't still be here at the end of this road. I've never said that I wouldn't stick it out and be your support. I promised that I would be with you for the long haul because that's the reality of it... I am making that choice to wait it out with you because you're worth it and I need you to believe that, above all else. You're special and important to me; I love you and that won't change. God has His plans for us and we can get through each of these hurdles together."

The other conversation made me realize how sweet it really is to be loved by God, by friends, by family... It reminded me of the importance of spending time and communing with God. It made me realize that I love carving time out for friends and family even though I'm often running around like a chicken without a head but reminds me to also do the same when it comes to God.

Okie. NEEEED to FOCUS and get nerdified!
