There are always questions we dread being asked. One of mine is “how's the love life?” but in the last few months its been “what's your plans after graduation?” I have been so busy recently, I have had trouble concentrating on getting dressed in the morning much less actually making any life plans. As I mentioned in my earliest blogs, I've had a few options I was considering. My sister Mishayla in Boise was one of those options. She's been one of those people who has continually been asking “so what's your plans after graduation?” But I love her, so I forgive her. I always responded with “I'll think about it in April.” I had so many projects and the trip and so much else on my plate that the moment was complicated enough. I could not waste time considering June. Well, April came and so did my sister's question “what are your plans...?”
I've been praying about it, of course, but in more of a general way. So now was the time to sit down and weigh out my options and see what it was that God really wanted me to do. It was time to face the music. So it has finally been decided. I have purchased a one-way ticket to Boise, ID. Not quite sure what I have gotten myself into, but we'll see...
I was telling someone the other day, I'm not an adventurous person by any stretch of the imagination. The only things I am adventurous with are shopping and moving. For some reason, I can't fathom white water rafting or bungee jumping, but picking up and moving to a place I've never been and know approximately four people is a great adventure. I love it. There is so much unknown and if you know anything about me, I typically hate the unknown. This is me being adventurous. Can't call me boring ha. Well, at this particular moment :/
So I'm so excited and I've already started packing because I can't help myself. I can't wait to start over someplace new and meet new people and experience new things. I can't wait to start on some fun ventures with Shay. We have so many things in mind. I can't tell you about them yet, but they are very exciting!
I'm down to 35 days and counting until graduation. I have so much to do, but I'm trying to absorb it all before I go.
I am happy for Mishayla and Derick and Boise but I am not happy for me. I don't like the idea of two daughters that far from me. I am blessed like a Mother bird, my birds have learned how to fly. I am ever so proud of you. So spread your wings and keep flying........
