  1. Fireworks

    This was just an effort to get rid of the writers' block. I did not edit it otherwise I would not make the choice to post it....

  2. Guatemala 2010

    I feel kind of tactless and rude for posting this up on my blog, but as explained in the proceeding letter - I did not plan on going and as such instead of mailing this out to the friends on LitNet that I mailed it to last year, I've decided to post it this way. Should you feel interested in aiding me, please send me a private message for details on address information. - Thank you so much guys for putting up with me! I love you lots!!

  5. Mysterious Ways

    I have a confession to make so please be understanding.

    Yesterday afternoon as I was driving home on the freeway I was talking to God. Coming home from yet another doctor's appointment where I became a pin cushion, I was asking God how in the world He would make things work out. To pay for my vaccinations for this year's Guatemala trip, I had just written a bad check in good faith that He would move on my behalf to provide.

    I mean, He has to. The Lord is sending me ...
