changes

Sometimes finding the words to write on a blog seem impossible to find! Its been a couple of days since I’ve blogged, well one, but it feels longer…probably coz I’ve been pretty busy the past day or two! I’ve realised though, how thankful I am for a really loving family!

Had a family party last night to celebrate Granny turning 85! We’ve decided to now make it annual thing because who knows how many she’ll have left! She takes this in good humor of course, anyone that knows her will know that this has been her last birthday since she was about 60 and here we are…25 years later Anyway so the party…it was just really good relaxed craic! To be honest I was worried it might be a little awkward coz all my cousins are going their separate ways and I guess we’re not all 10 year old who’ll just play outside and fall and cry and fight and then get over it or whatever anymore! But I was pleasantly surprised! It turned out to be a very shall, we say ‘mature’ (without wanting to sound boring) party with just really good socialising and catching up on the past months of life! So that made me very happy! Knowing where my family’s at and that we’re still able to just mess around and joke about stupid things the way we used to as well as have sensible conversations!

And here we all are…

Gorge!

I guess what I’ve been thinking about recently is how much people, myself included, change! Change scares me at times, but then again when I really think about it, it probably excites me even more than it scares me! But i think about it a lot! I find myself constantly looking around at change…at how people in church change, my family change and general life changes, and sometimes so quickly! But I guess thats just all part of ‘growing up’ and at the end of the day, we’re always growin up! WE always get older and we’re always learning new things everyday!

Blogging makes me think too much!!

Bye for now my lovely readers…whoever you are!

ps…I LOVE the rain!!!

Seriously like my granny never ceases to amaze and amuse me! She asked me what I was doing earlier while I was on facebook and I said,

‘Im on facebook’

and she said ‘what’s that?’

and I said ‘awk its just a networking site’

and she said ‘what, like pornography?!’

and I burst out laughin and she was very confused bless her! Then I explained that its a friends network and she was lost! Ah how the generations develop and lose each other!!

I love how life changes! Unexpectedly! It keeps the excitement going and makes everything interesting! I don’t really have anything else to say right now except my friend beulah who I’ve mentioned in previous blogs is currently corrupting my ipod with songs such as ‘badd’ which is about shaking your ass for money, ‘I look great when I’m f**ked up’ by The Brian Jonestown Massacre , ‘I was a man’ by Jape and apparently the list goes on…!!!

OH…also…i HATE thunder and lightning even though I love the rain AND…swine flu…I’m pretty sure I don’t have it…but a bloody bad cough…yes, yes i do have one of those!!

life’s guilty pleasures!

after a day of literally walking around aimlessly and doing a lot of thinking about life and the future, the near future as opposed to years off in the future, it is nice to sit down in my pj’s and drink a gorge mug of cadburys hot chocolate! and listen to the rain on my window! Sad as this may sound, it makes me feel warm inside! and I love it!

Sometimes it is the simplest little thing like the sound of the rain or a mug of hot chocolate that reminds me that God loves me and he is helping me relax and unwind from a mind boggling day!

northern ireland weather…

The day i need the sun to shine because i’m looking after 2 kids and its cold and dull and looks like its gonna rain! typical eh!?

I love sitting thinking about how God blesses me in small ways, like for example, I have no money and precious little petrol in my car and I get a message from my friend, who i was meant to go pick up in an hours time, saying that she can get a lift to my house to help me entertain these 2 children. Call me crazy but I look at that as a gift from God because he knows my financial situation and it’s in those small ways that we need to believe that God cares for our needs and for us in general! and this then makes me forget about my pennyless-ness and just makes me want to praise him for his faithfulness!
