I know, you are absolutely right. Just lately I've been reading and writing a lot. I find writing is therapeutic for me. I bought a journal and it's almost filled already in less than a week. I think...maybe my mother was wrong.. maybe I can be an author.. maybe I do what what it takes. Maybe I am smart enough.
That's fantastic! Yes, it seems to me like your mother was wrong about that. You can be an author! You do have what it takes! You are smart enough to make it! Throw out the maybes and write what's on your heart. God's given you a real gift there. Use that gift of yours to bring healing to yourself and others. :) The Holy Spirit works with what God's given you and is growing in you. I'm proud of you, my dear sister and very excited to see where God's going to lead you next!

This quote is from what I read and it was relevant to me and I thought it was beautiful so I decided to share it. My blog however and my journal is filled with works of my own. Perhaps one day I will share them with you all. This is what I've wanted to do all my life- write and keep writing but my parents are against it.

Oh, yes! You don't have to share it all with us. It's your own private journal. No, you keep writing. God's using this method to bring about His healing process in your life, I can see it. Keep writing for yourself, for God. Keep writing because you need to write. Bless you. :)

(Sorry, I edited my post since you quoted it).

So... tomorrow I have to go back to work and I don't want to. I feel like a nervous wreck. I'm not sure I can face going back to that place.

Yes, that's a great idea. Thanks, Wonderful Woman. Relief teaching is rather slow at the moment, but I'm doing some volunteering at a primary school. I'm growing in my faith and Arlene and I are doing very well. In many ways, I'm truly blessed. Thanks for asking. :)

I'm tired. I didn't get a nap today. I got some AWESOME Doctor Who stuff, though. And some fairly good coffee.

Dad will call the exterminator in the morning, and I'll be going out to eat with a friend I haven't seen in a few weeks. I've missed her, so I decided, hey, why not just meet up with her? So yeah. I'm excited for that. She's been such an amazing friend to me. She's sort of reserved like I am, but she also can be talkative, and we'll have so much fun together. She's also SUPER sweet and has the same passion for music that I do. Aaah so excited.

I just need to get enough sleep tonight.

I am tired. I have awhole lot to do these next 2 weeks, training new staff, being trained in another home that I am being transitioned to. The fellow that I mainly work with has CP and skin issues and constant pressure sore issues combined with behavior issues. His social life has been lacking past few months because he has developed skin wounds due to pressure sores due to resisting laying in bed. Well I have managed to finally get him in a schedule to lay in bed for 1-4 hours during my shift as per wound care nurses suggestions. I have been in charge of communicating directly with nursing staff team, dermatologists, pharmacies regarding special creams, etc.

I think I posted on here that my boss wanted me to ask the nurses when the wounds would be healed, cus it doesn't seem to be doing anything. But yet it has. And he had put me in the middle of pressuring the nurses to give me a date. Like they are magical healers. So I snapped at him before I left. Told him to call the nurses himself, I don't want to be in the middle of this. What he is asking is unreasonable. He quieted down.

Well before I left for holidays. He told me that he wants to throughly train the next staff and wants me to invite the fellow's friends over for a gathering so she can see the process and what not. And I am like, what the bleep. You were just lecturing me on his skin! I am finally at the point in which he is calm enough that he is not abusing himself or trying to hit staff to lay in bed to take pressure off and now you want him out and about. To me, his health comes first. My boss can bloody train the new girl on social activities.

I have so much on my plate with him this week anyways with multiple appointments, two new ppl training and me working 12 hr shifts.

Awesome sauce, Evie! I'm glad you can just enjoy each others' company. I did chuckle at bit though, when you mentioned the exterminator and your good friend in the same sentence. Haha! :D And yay for Doctor Who stuff! I can't wait for the new season. It starts this Saturday! :)

Aaaaaah I can't wait!!! I'm sort of hesitant with Capaldi because of how stand-offish he'll be. But until Doctor Who gets unbearably raunchy I probably won't stop watching it. lol

Instead of trying to write out the jumbled thoughts in my head in a coherent paragraph like normal people, i will use bullet points cause that's how my engineer's mind works. :)


Yay for weekends!
Yay for friends, and for meeting new people (only sometimes)!
Yay for heart to heart conversations, and for the people who ask challenging questions!
Yay for good Sunday school teachers!



That is all,
-Bugs :D

Christian's Worst Typos #1:
Arlene: "Why aren't you at my front door?"
Christian/Tintin: "Sorry, I started walking but then I pooped."
Voice over speaker in a supermarket: (in a nasally voice) "Aisle 3: Price check on prune juice."

I command the depression to leave Emily now, in Jesus' name, and that she be filled to overflowing with joy such as she's never felt before. Unlike even Spring happiness, may she feel complete peace, despite circumstances. May there be a heavenly glow surrounding her.

Lord, give her new things she can enjoy. May she find her biggest joy in You, her Messiah. Please, Jesus. In Your name, amen.

So. Dad went into my room, and it looked like all the bees were dead. Then. Dad looked at them, and found out, they're not bees. They're yellow jackets. And there was one that was still alive. It scared me half to death.
