Memories

Good morning! I am writing VERY early in the morning and wish I could still be sleeping but SOMEBODY (cough sam! cough) had to call and wake me up! Goodness! Oh well I'll live. Anyways, mom broke her leg this week in three places. She was trying to let a crazy cow out and then it knocked down some pannels and mom turned to get out of the way but her whole leg decided not to turn with her. So she broke her leg just below the knee. Ouch. She had surgery on Wednesday to get some pins and a plate put in it. I haven't seen her, just talked to her on the phone.
This week is festival, and whooooo boy am I glad it's almost done. Although it was fun. The adjudicator that judged three of my 5 songs and the choir stuff was Winston Noren. Oh my goodness, he has an amazing voice! It's soo cool, and funny too. Corey Tanton (?) I think that's her last name judged my contemporary Gospel song, and gave me a higher mark than Mr. Noren, but that's ok. I didn't even get an 'H' for any of my songs. I know that I'm better than what I performed most of the time b/c I was so nervous. I didn't even look at Mr. Noren after the first day b/c he made me sooooooo nervous! I didn't look at Corey either b/c they just stare at you and it's sooooo unnerving. But yea, a couple girls in my choir got reccommended to Provincials this year. Our Choir got 3 'H' s so that was cool. We're singing in the Grand Concert on Sunday.
On this day five months ago I had my car accident. IT was sooooooo scary. The scars are slowly but surely turning white, and there is still some glass in my hand. I don't want to get it taken out thought b/c then it'll wreck my fav scar. It's weird to have a favourite, but when you have as many as I do on your hand, you'll understand.
Carm came home last weekend and I really love having her home. It's sooooo nice especially since her and Barry are tentatively planning on gettting married next summer. But nothing's official yet. Anyways, I'd better go.
Have a good day, God Bless and wish me luck today! (Last of our songs are today, and then the Grand concert!)

Grad 06-In Christ Alone

Yesterday I went to Prairie again for the graduation ceremony and to hang out with some friends. This was the first time I had seen most of them since the end of November, just before my accident. Oh my goodness! What a time! I had such a blast, just seeing people again and catching up as best I could. I have never been so sad to leave though. I was so determined not to cry, but just ended up crying half way through church today anyways. I can't believe how much has happened in the eight months since I was there at Summit. The most rewarding part was seeing Bob graduate, after being there for seven years!! It was awesome to see him get that little piece of paper saying he was done. Oh my goodness, and what a response he got when his name got called. That was the most awesomest thing I've ever seen. Although he will be missed around there, it's great to see him go and so happy. I also got to see Chris, Seth and Nathan there, meet Seth's wife, they've only been married, well I guess almost a year now. But I haven't seen him since Sam graduated. Ben and Christy were at Keith and Jamie's after so that was cool to see him too since I haven't seen him since he came to our house a couple years ago. Chris I didn't see since last summer I guess. But it was sooo much fun. For a moment I thought that Ben was Tobin, but he wasn't so that was confusing. Anyways, I also learned something last night when doing my devotions. I've been to anxious to get married and have a family, that I haven't been focusing on God and my other relationships. I had it planned out too! Get married at 21, have kids and then do something. But I don't think that's quite what God wants. I don't know, sooo confusing. Maybe I'll just focus on getting done highschool eh? Anyways, here's a couple verses to leave you with.
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Phillipians 4:6-7

God Bless ya throughout the coming week!

This day in the History of Kelly!!

Goodmorning! I'm sitting here at work and preparing for the patients to come in and decided to write a little blog! Recently reading Margaret and Tyler's blog I noticed she had a blog that said what were you doing this day last year. Well, this day last year I was getting baptised at the church I go to. I remember thinking when I was under, 'I hope he brings me back up!' how silly eh? But yea, I really should get back to work now. Have an awesome spring day!

I hate my mouse!

Goodmorning! well, ok it isn't morning, but somewhere in the world it is! I must explain the title of this blog. The mouse for my computer has off days when it decides not to work and then I get really annoyed and get off the computer right away. Sorry to anyone who I haven't actually written back in a long time, that's why. I just don't have the patience! But I will get back to you! So anyways, I started a new job this week, working at the office in the hospital in town every other weekend for a couple hours. Which is nice b/c then I get some money and will actually be able to pay for prom gifts! Yay for me! I'm really dreading going to choir on Monday b/c I haven't practiced any of my songs this week, for lack of having a voice! and my director is going to kill me! She's going into PMS mode right now with festival only a couple weeks away. I haven't even memorised any of my songs (ooppss!) So yea, pretty much I'm going to die.

In other news I've been doing a lot of thinking about where my priorities have been these last few weeks, and I didn't really like the outcome. My thoughts have been pretty much focused on school and boys. God has been the thing to think about while doing devotions and once in a while at school. It's not a pretty picture, and while my age may have something to do with thinking about boys, that still doesn't excuse it. Blah! Such a problem. It hit me last night at youth group, that if I want to be a missionary or even participate in a short term mission as I'm planning to the year after next, then maybe I should get prioritizing. But it's hard, b/c even as I sat down to right this, there was a little voice in my head that said "ok, now right the 'deep God talk' and be done with it." My heart is being pulled in a million different directions, which is sooooo frustrating. Anyways, I should get some work done, this has been my release for the day, could you guys pray for me? please? That I get my mind back on God, not pushing him to the side until I think I need him? Thanks! Love ya!
