  • I'm always confused whenever I randomly log into xanga.  I check my subscriptions, and the last post is always from October with nothing new posted since.  Has xanga officially died, or is mine broken?

    Part III

    So, I experienced a transformation over the last few days, and I'm blaming it all on the weather.  I feel like a different person.  I finally have the option to wear a sweater.  I went to Starbucks two days in a row and got a HOT drink both times.  The "wintery" Sarah has been rebirthed--the one who likes to read fiction with a Toffee Nut Latte in hand and a scarf around her neck.

    And believe it or not, I have been inspired to listen to at least some Christian music again.  I had gotten so sick of cliche' Christian lyrics and dumb music that I suddenly found myself having given it up altogether.  It's slowly starting to creep back into my life, and I'm happy about it.  I'll probably be turning on Christmas music before too long.

    Oh yeah, and my volleyball team did well...with a sense of team unity that made a great end to the season.

  • Part II

    Good to hear from you guys that commented, and nice to see there are still people here.  I miss all of you.  XOX.

    I am in the midst of finishing up volleyball season with my team, and my heart has been heavy all day.  My girls have grown a lot this year, and there is such potential for them to really do well this week in districts.  I fought for them to be able to rest this weekend and dealt with a lot of crap over it.  I've also been pouring my heart out before the Lord today about how much I want them to be able to really come together.  We've been fighting all year to not give up, to work together, and to play as one, despite differences.  I am yearning to see EVERY player focused and playing their hardest for each other in these next few days.  I want this so much for them, so that they can see what teamwork can really accomplish.

    I finished the David Crowder book today and enjoyed it immensely.  It is definitely scatterbrained, but in a graspable way.  Kind of like what discussions at Belhaven used to be like.

    Anyway, I'm going to go to the gym to get some excercise before going to work.  Please pray for my team if you can squeeze them onto your prayer list for a couple days.  I'll let you know how it turns out.

    Everybody Wants to Go to Heaven, but Nobody Wants to Die: Or the Eschatology of Bluegrass

    Hello, my old friend.

    It's been awhile.

    Things change so quickly.  It was less than two years ago that I was in Ediburgh.  How far away I was from everything familiar, and how close I was to extraordinary new thoughts and awakenings.

    I am content, but yet so incredibly aware of how plainly familiar life is.

    My heart is at ease, but my mind yearns for new things.  To get out, go explore, or create.  What should I do next?

    Last night, I spent a bit of time recalling some of the moments of drama I have been experienced within the last few years.  I am so thankful that those days are mostly over.  Life with Ryan is quiet, fun, and sometimes boring, but enjoyable nonetheless.  But it did make me miss some of the people I love.  I'm glad there's not as much drama as there used to be, but I still miss the people that made life exciting.

    Anyway, time to go be responsible.  I will be keeping a lookout for something different.
