Later rather than sooner

Hmmmm...I'm rather perturbed with myself. It seems that every time I sit down to post anything I get distracted. Kinda like a purposeful mental block. A lot has happened over the past three weeks and I haven't been able to write about any of it. Oh well, as my favorite musician has said--"It ain't not use banging your head up against a cold stone wall" [and for those of you who are too young, it is NOT by Steven Curtis Chapman!!]. I think I'll just leave it at that.

FROM NEWEST TO OLDEST

If you are ever travelling from Minneapolis to Ellendale and find yourself on Hwy. 55 remember this word of advice--Hwy. 55 turns into Hwy. 11 @ the ND/MN border. BUT... there is also a county Hwy. 11 that intersects with Hwy. 55 about 50 miles before that. Unless you want to go miles out of your way for no reason I would suggest not taking that route. We did on Sunday. Not fun--only because we were both exhausted and I had forgotten my atlas. It took an extra hour--once I figured out I had taken the wrong road--to get back to school. Yay! I wish we had not been to tired. It would have been a great adventure.

Rachel's wedding was really nice. Some aspects were quite chaotic and last-minute; but not as bad as some weddings I've helped with. It was really cute having her teddy bear (Curly Joe) as the ring bearer. Very unique! Also, no groomsmen. Just two bridesmaids but one on each side. Interesting. The only problem I had with the whole thing is that the true bridesmaid outshone the bride {of course that is just my opinion}. She was the most beautiful woman I had ever laid eyes on. I thought about asking her to marry me right then; but realized that we had already set a date. So sad!!!

ON THAT NOTE. HERE IS A QUICK UPDATE! OUR WEDDING DATE HAS BEEN CHANGED!! It is now set for 5 Aug. 2006 (thank you Ben). I hope that poses no problem for anyone.

Wow!! Everything that I wanted to say was written down on my computer and I just found out that it's all gone. Hmmm. I guess that this is all for now.

Please pray for me! I have been sick for the past few days and I can't sleep because of it.

At least when you do post, you have substance to it. There are those (myself included) who post just for the sake of posting. Not that all are bad, but sheesh, if one sits down and stares at the screen for 10 minutes with nothing in mind, then one probably doesn't have anything to post.

I'll keep checking in though. Glad to hear things are going great!

Uh...so who DID write that song? Of course any song of interest to young people like me is by SCC or Carman. :P And it's your opinion and Foster's. That's it. :) But I sure did look good, didn't I? :P

The song was "He'll take care of the rest" and it was originally written and sung by Keith Green. SCC did a remake for the Keith Green tribute album a number of years ago.
