..

I haven't felt like writing much lately.

I am SO SO ready for my weekend. C'mon Sunday.
Too bad I couldn’t care less about watching the super bowl.

I dropped a class, because my professor was SUCH A MEANIE. So now I'm only taking 6 hours. I feel like I'm never going to finish school. Hopefully I can take 4 classes this summer and get caught up.

I'm supposed to be writing a research paper on Hamlet, but I really don’t feel like it right now. Maybe I will in a few hours.

I think I just need a vacation. Or at least a date night with Adam.
It’s been way too long.
Stupid work.

I think I’m also sick of the snow. I'm ready for the Sun and nice runs in the park and summer dresses and flip flops. I'm always ready for the new season before the one we're in is over.
Story of my life.
Our puppies are ready for sun too. They don’t like having to stay outside because of their muddy paws.
Maybe my next post will be more on the bright side!

Still I will say

I guess God uses the time spent driving to work to speak to me.
On my way to work, this song came on and sweet Jesus just reassured me and poured his love into me. Luckily I was already pulling into the parking lot of work, so I just sat in my car and soaked it in for 15 minutes before going in.
- Once again, my coworkers think I’m an emotional wreck.

God loves me in spite of me. In spite of everything I do that is wrong. In spite of the struggles I face. He loves me because of who He is. His name is good. His name is wonderful. His name is amazing.
If I believe all of that and if I believe that God is real.. then He has to be real in my life, real over all of my problems. He is God of all, and His name is good. It's glorious.

His name is still good even when I’m suffering. His name is still wonderful even when I’m found in the desert place, when it doesn’t seem like there is any way out. HIS NAME IS STILL GOOD.


Blessed Be Your Name
In the land that is plentiful
Where Your streams of abundance flow
Blessed be Your name

Blessed Be Your name
When I'm found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness

Blessed Be Your name
Every blessing You pour out
I'll turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord

Still I will say

Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name
Blessed be Your name
When the sun's shining down on me
When the world's 'all as it should be'
Blessed be Your name

Blessed be Your name
On the road marked with suffering
Though there's pain in the offering
Blessed be Your name
Every blessing You pour out
I'll turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say

Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name

Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name

You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord, blessed be Your name

School is def in session.


Adam took this at the railhead convention this year. Some 94 year old lady was trying to raise money for "shools" and she gets made fun of. Poor thing.
Granted, we didnt knowthis belonged to her until after the picture was snapped.

Reading, reading, studying, writing, blah.
I miss being able to read for fun. Not enjoying having to read about the history of America instead.. for the 10,000th time in my life. Yay for explorers, I don't care anymore.
I mean, I like learning and what not.. I'm just over History. Not a fan.
Plus, when reading crap I don't enjoy my mind wanders and I have to re-read the same flipping page 12 times before I understood what I read.

I had a good few days off though. Spent a whole lot of time at my parents house, playing dominos and celebrating my oldest brothers birthday. :]

I've been going through a few things that are trying and I kinda just feel like giving up, but God is bigger. I won't.
I know he hears every cry and is faithful and just to answer me.
When it seems hopeless, He will lift me up.
I'm ready.

Heyya

Hey friends. :D

My shift just changed, todays the first day actually.. So I'll be back on evening 2pm-10pm.  I dont mind it, other than the fact that it takes up my entire day.
Ill have to start doing homework/studying a lot more anyways, so it will work out okay.

Adam will be at work till well into the night tonight. I will be spending some time with my sweet Janna! Yayyy.
Coffee, Valentines Candy, V*lugs, and being ninjas. CAN'T WAIT.
20 more minutes of work.
Pretty neat I can blog from work, eh?
I really do love this job.

I have been obsessed with wearing high waisted shorts/ tights/ boots lately. All I want to put on. Dear Lubbock, Please quit being so conservative so I can wear this type of thing to work. Thank you.

Adam and I will go from seeing each other every single evening from 6 - bedtime.. to.. never.
SADNESS.
We will make it work, we always do. But we both sure did love every minute of that time we got.

Vomit.

I have no clue what was said to prompt this conversation, Adam said something and I did that thing where I guessed the rest of his sentence, because I knew for certain what he was going to say!

Amber:
Vomit!
Adam:
Nooo I wasn't going to say I would eat your vomit!!Gross.
Amber:
So, if someone was going to kill me unless you ate my vomit you wouldn't?
Adam:
Well yeah. But I'd kill them first.
Amber:
Haha! So by that you’re saying you wouldn’t eat it.
Adam:
No, I'd kill em dead first. Bust some caps, and then I'd say, "Let's see who's vomiting now!"... And then be mad that I couldn't think of anything better to say.



**Pull up to chic-fil-a**

This in some way initially brought up the topic of vomit. Not because it any way makes me want to do that. I think it was because I've been sick lately, and I was simply wishing not to vomit.

Anyways, I decided Chic-Fil-A was the one restaurant I'd pick to eat for the rest of my life. I'm that certain I'll never get sick of it. Then I decided we didn't want to be that limited. So I changed the make believe rule to pick three restaurants to eat forever

Where I then chose Chic-Fil-A, Maharaja (my faveee real rest ever!), and Taco Villa. Then I regretted choosing the Villa, as with these three choices I would indubitably end up being a complete chubbo. So quickly, like a fox some might say, changed it to Market Street. YUMMY salads, decent sushi, and lots of other goodness... Plusss a store full of groceries. Can't believe I almost left that one out. Close one.

Yeah, we play hard.

The last chicken nugget was a heart. Chic-Fil-A is clearly gracious for being my number one pick.


Adam is not gracious for me making him pose with the adorable heart shaped nug, hence the dissenting eyes looking at oncoming civilians.

I love our life together.
We got Wii super Mario brothers. So, now I shall go show him how it’s done. ;)
Also, Im sorry for saying vomit so much in the post.

EDIT:: I will wait to say that I dominated until we play just one player. On the Wii version, both players are playing at the same time! On the same screen! So you have to watch out for your brother/lover, and the other player can easily push you off ledges, throw turtles at you, jump on your head, and murder you.

Big Red

The vending machine spit out 2 packets of gum at me! Best thing to happen to me all day. (Even though it was big red, and big red really isnt my choice of gum. Well it is here bec its that or winterfresh, which in my opinion, makes your breath smell worse)
Well, besides waking up curled into a ball next to my sweet husband, breathing, being able to talk to Jesus while getting ready for work, and finally getting over this gross sickness!

Today is my Thursday! This week was exruciatingly long  extra short since I missed 1 1/2 days of work.
The weekend, despite my sickness, was wonderful.  Adam was super sweet of course. Made me soup, got me whatever I needed, cuddled me, tucked me into bed, and listened to me whine for 3 days!
What a man.

School starts back up tomorrow. Guess I should go buy my textbooks soon.. Least favorite part of school. Seriously, why must you charge over 100 dollars for every book I need? But, I am excited to get some more under my belt!
I'm taking another Government, Tx History, and English Composition this semester. None of which Im fond of. So this will be fun. :]
Ill try and make the best of it. Ready for classes that actually pertain to my degree. That will be swell.

.

I've been sick for like 23majillion days now. Or 3. But it feels like longer, so not much else is going on.


At work now and am probably about to leave. Just threw up (two times) and dont really feel like being here.
Plus, I guess me feeling icky + slow work + internet = ordering things online.  New adorable tights, dry shampoo, and lipgloss are on their way to me. My attempt at feeling better failed.


I'll just share some more iphone pictures for now.






I like red dark lipstick.
And taking pictures of myself.

love love.
