- tonight at kids klub, we did a "popcorn" prayer with the kids. it was really fun- everyone took a turn at lifting something up in prayer.... the best prayer request was by one boy who prayed that his fish would never die. :)
- i am now in the tie dying business! i did my first 3 pieces today and they turned out really awesome!!! i was not expecting that from my first batch! i am excited to start gifting them to people and also try to sell some. put in your orders!
- my bff vera told me today that she loves me not working because i am up for anything and we see each other more! i have to admit- it has been wonderful being well rested, stress free, and having adventures! i feel like i am back in touch with my college-self!
- i miss jaime as a roomie! joshy is a good one, but jaime and i really found a groove that worked together!!

So much to blog about!
i don't know where to even start blogging! i have been doing so many fun things this summer, mostly because i have time to! it has been great! and the job search has been encouraging as well, so thank you all for your prayers. i was able to drive down to the DC area by myself last week for a short getaway. i went to visit a friend from college that i have recently reconnected with. he was a GREAT host. when he showed me my bedroom, there was a towel, hand towel, and wash cloth neatly folded on the bed! he showed me around annapolis, took me out to dinners, and even let me purchase art work for his apartment! his apartment complex had a pool and Jacuzzi, so i was able to relax while he was at work! i also took a day to go into DC by myself and visit all of the museums. how fun! the national museum of art was my favorite, as they have many monet, manet, renoir, and piscarro paintings. some of the paintings brought me to tears thinking about how awesome it is that someone's art work can last so long after one's life has ended. it made me think/pray about the possibility of my next job being more artistic/creative in some way. that would be so neat!

My connection with Michael...
sadly, michael jackson died today. of course the world is mourning, along with the death of farrah fawcett. very sad.
- i still don't know what the first words i ever said were. it has been a long standing story told by my dad that my cousin, shannon, constantly held the michael jackson album up to me as a baby and played his music, and that because of this my first words were indeed...... Michael Jackson.
- when i was about 5 years old, my dad and uncle charlie took me to the monroeville mall to buy my first pair of high-tops. the man that waited on us at foot locker was african american and he was determined to sell me pink high-tops. i did not like pink. but i picked the pink high tops. moments later, my dad realized after buying the shoes he actually left me in the store for about 10 min, not realizing that i was not with him. he came back and found me with the salesman. as we left, my dad asked if i was scared that he left me and why i decided to get the pink shoes.... and all i could say with a HUGE smile on my face was "dad, was that michael jackson?!" i had thought the king of pop had just sold me pink shoes....of course i was going to go with his recommendation!

HORRIBLE!
so i have had poison ivy since i planted my green been and tomato garden/weeded that day... it started between my fingers, then spread up my arms, then under my chin, then on my face, then on my legs. it has been HORRIBLE! i first tried home remedies- like squeezing an actually lemon on the spots, lime juice...then bought an all natural cream from the store since i have really sensitive skin... it has not improved!

Randomnesssss
just a few things going on/on my mind...
- love messing around with the layouts lately for the blog. i will probably stick with this one for awhile... love jaime's new layout!
- i have been really enjoying time off! i have started a tomato and green been garden
- my grandpa curry bought me a pool! it is 3 feet tall and 10 feet in diameter. it has a filter and chlorine. you can buy a summer pool membership for $10/month. come on, a girl has to make money somehow!
- i had a great time babysitting peyto and wesley last friday- from playing monopoly, doing art, seeing the movie UP and creek fishing- GOOD TIMES!
- went for a 3 1/2 mile walk in north park with nilla the other day and she did great! minus a little mimosa spilling on jaime tonight, nilla's behavior has really improved! maybe it was because mom was gone all the time at work!
- had a WONDERFUL day with mary muffin and friends- lunch, manis/pedis, shopping, dinner, and more shopping- great bonding!
- im excited for whatever is next in my journey...and to get further away from the drama that has followed me from my last job! i guess that is to be expected when you are in relational ministry.
- thank you everyone for the continued encouragement and prayer! i am very blessed because of all of you in my life!

In honor of the New Kids ON the Block Concert tonight....

....I wanted to share my experience from my senior year in high school where I was able to meet reality tv stars/boy band- OTOWN. now i am pretty sure i have blogged about o-town before or at least recounted my love affair with the first ever MAKING THE BAND. LOVE THEM. i especially had a crush on trevor. i have seen them in concert 3 times, and have the 0-town live dvd. anyways- my dreams came true in 12th grade when our student council won a contest to have O-town and Soul Decision come do concerts at our school. HOW AWESOME.
