Final Countdown

This past weekend I was home for a beautiful Catholic wedding that joined two of my high school classmates together in marriage.  I was able to get some boxes moved in to my new place to get a jumpstart so I don't have as much to move when I get back.  Between the wedding where I was able to see lots of friends and moving the next day, it started to hit me that I really am moving back home and starting another chapter in my life.

That being said, my days with my roommates are numbered. We decided we would make this week count and do something exciting everyday (attemptedly). Monday evening, we went out for sushi which was our first meal altogether while we were looking for places to live our first week here. After that, we decided to build a tent in our living room with our sheets and blankets.  We stayed under our tent, watched "Bunheads" on ABC Family, and ate ice cream to complete our girls night.

The next morning, we were going to wake up and watch the sunrise but that didn't really happen. Well, actually, I woke up and no one else really and I didn't really feel like moving so it was kind of my fault.  I did more packing in the afternoon and the room is starting to get quite empty.  I cooked dinner for us while the girls were out apartment hunting so we had another nice meal together and decided we would try again to wake up and watch the sunrise.

We woke up this morning ready to go but the weather was not as kind to us.  It was storming but Amanda was persistent that we go to the beach anyway so we went.  It was sprinkling and we really couldn't see much but it was the idea of it. After we went and had breakfast at Denny's before we all headed off to service for the day.

I only have 3 days left here. It hardly seems real at this point. Like moving down here, it probably won't hit til the car is packed and dad and I hit the road. This week my prayer intention has been for all those who are in the middle of a transition in their lives whether that be relationships, jobs, or living situations.   God has a plan for all of us, even if it isn't really clear right now.
