tiempo



this is the last chance i have to blog as a 30-year-old. in about an hour and 10 minutes this day will turn to the next, and the next marks the day this year of my existence turns to the next. gifts will not be turned away...though all i really want is a few packs of guitar strings. and maybe a powerball ticket. preferably a winning powerball ticket. ($101 mil! think of the tithe on that!)

i don't really know what i think of 31, except that i believe it will hold some of my biggest life-changes yet. i have done things this last year that i have spent most of my life dreaming of, and it's started a trend i can't let go. i've come to know God in ways i hadn't conceived of, and i love Him and want to know Him more than i ever have before. i have much more work to do on me and in me, but i know that God will show me what, when, where and how, and it will not overwhelm me like i always thought it would. i am both eagerly and nervously looking forward to the next 12 months.

so tomorrow i will sleep until 10, drink loads of good coffee and museum-hop with people i love at the time i would normally be sitting in my cubicle talking to irritated and under-informed travel agents about their clients' trips. i think it's going to be a lovely day. 31 look out.

thank you guys!

the beauty of being 8 hours (or is it 9?) behind you is that, after a sleep-in, i'm just starting my lovely day.

and as if on que, the sun came out! it's rained 29 of the last 30 days, so this is a good sign.

Hi Sheena! Good bye 30 hello world! Happy birthday, I came to see you by way of gingerbees, (or bees knees, I don't know I just click on my favorites and tah-dah!)
Your humor is as wry and funny as the big sisters. Any way, she posted a Holly Hobbie baby pic on her web and says its cutie you and that I should drop a Happy Wish on your blog. I envy your travel life and your age! So there! God bless, happy day,(OOOH HAAAAPY DAY!)
