There and Back Again

I'm sitting here typing away on my greasy keyboard waiting for my laundry to be done. I've been listening to this endless loop of Get Lucky by Daft Punk for the last hour and I figured I ought to make a blog seeing how I slept so late into the day.

We came home from vacation today--me, my cousins, aunt, uncle, and grandpa. We spent the week in Big Bear. It was nice up there but not as cool as I expected it to be. I packed my flannels and all my pajama pants and I don't think I really needed them :P

We woke up every morning around 8 a.m. and my grandpa made us a country breakfast (he's from Georgia) and then we went on with our day. Let's see....we visited the petting zoo, the regular zoo, the village, antique stores, mini golf, bowling alley, Denny's. It was all fine and good however I'm happy to be home and sleep in my own, or rather, my cousin's own bed.

I've decided that any pictures that just don't make the cut on Facebook will wind there way up here, so here is a few from this week/past month.

my babies still in Arizona

 I just like this wall

 Within a day of being in Big Bear my skin was totally clear, and my eyes looked a little bluer.

 

 

 God is teaching me a lot about trust and faith. I don't think you can have one without the other. He's also teaching me a lot about righteousness and how, he is my righteousness. I think he's telling me this because ever since I got here I've been hella insecure about starting over, hunting for a job, a new crew, etc. and in my heart I have these crazy desires and God is just like hey man I care about those too and I'm like yeah I know you do but I'm feeling a little batshit crazy. Lol...God is good.

 

I'll write again soon! XOXOXOX

 

California

So I guess you could say I'm officially here.

I left my house in AZ yesterday at about 9:30-10 a.m.ish and after stopping a couple times got to my aunt's at 5 p.m. When I got here my car was on empty which gave me anxiety because I didn't know where the nearest gas station was. Thankfully after dinner my cousins showed me the local 7-11. I think I'm going to need to practice driving here at night. I'm not used to the San Diego streets. Everything is a hill and I drive a station wagon so I think the bottom of my car hits every bump in the road, lol.

I haven't visited my grandparents, seen my mom, looked for a job, or done much of anything yet. I slept most of the night and I feel ready to go back to bed.

When we went out for dinner last night (Cheesecake Factory) I wore a sweater and shorts and it was around 70 degrees out and I was freezing. It's hard to believe I'm from California originally when I'm having to climatize all over again, lol. No more 100 degree nights me.

So what happens next? I guess just try to resume the routine I had back in AZ. Wake up, exercise, eat, talk to my friends read the Word look for work. I know what I need to do but there's a lot of static, if you will, going on in my brain right now.

Okay, hopefully I'll get some pictures going on up in here soon. Definitely after vacation next week.
