Taking this blog a whole new direction-focusing on myself, my relationships, my life. Experiences in college, varying interests of mine, my relationship with God as a more liberal believer. Liberal doesn't equal Democrat/Liberal either. My political stances won't be of concern. Here I will state my position at times, but mostly I will stay neutral. Anonymous comments will be deleted, please give some kind of name for yourself if you desire to comment. I will try my best to update often. I don't take the Bible as the literal anything, but more as a book that reflects how life was back then from the perspective of the authors. Time period is very important in studying the Bible. If it's good, people aren't hurt, and are helped by any action, I believe that's what we, as humans, should do. Enjoy the blog.
UPDATE:
Today I am going to get two books for school that were not in stock when I went to pay and buy books a couple weeks ago. Classes begin in two weeks and I feel like I haven't done even half of what I'd hoped to get done this summer. Things have been so busy. The dryer was acting up-cleaned it out and now it's good. The garage ceiling needs painting-it's half done. Mowing grass, making compost, keeping up with the garden-which is growing lots of cucumbers and tomatoes, less green beans and no peppers, broccoli or swiss chard. I only got one batch of lettuce this year *sigh*.
What else caused a veered course this summer? The fridge/freezer isn't working right, so I've ordered a new one. $750-burning a hole in the wallet.
I went to the movies this summer and prior to that I hadn't been in 5 years-imagine that. With movie tickets almost $9, no soda or popcorn or junk (not that I could have that anyway), it adds up fast. As a college student still looking for a new part-time job, money isn't exactly plentiful. I did not finish that scarf and it may have to wait. I've almost finished my cross stitch. My room is almost clean. I've been cleaning deep this summer-do I need it, is it really important to me, is it important for classes/college, do I really, truly and honestly think I will use it at some point, honestly? No, it's gone then. I have thrown out A LOT of stuff this summer and am now working on organizing what's left so it's easy to find and the room is tidy. While I am doing this, stuff is scattered everywhere in piles and it's driving me crazy. I really hate piles of stuff everywhere, but I am dealing with it for now so that everything in the end will be easy to find and when I move here soon (hoping by next summer), moving and organizing will be MUCH easier. So that's been my summer so far. The weather has been hot here most days. Humid too, VERY humid, ugh. Only one dry spell with about 10 days of no rain back in June. Other than that, it's been a mix of sun, clouds, rain and lots of thunderstorms. When the rain comes-there's often been a storm with it.
My brother had a birthday in July-14 years old and he'll start high school this fall. The old crappy principal my sister and I had has officially retired so my brother won't have to have him. Who they get now will be interesting. That's about all I can think of for now.
