Kind of busy day

SO, I woke up this morning to my WONDERFUL sister Jamie calling =] She was sharing the fabulous news that she has gotten promoted to a store [she is currently the manager at Guitar Center] in Kansas !! How awesome is that? I'm so happy for her !!

The morning wasn't too busy - did some paperwork for registration tomorrow, got my book Jane Eyre [which I have to read, along with two other books, for my English class this year] in the mail, and chilled until I dyed my hair. You see, my hair is naturally a light brown, and I dyed it about 3 or 4 months ago to a blondish color, and today I dyed it back to my "natural" hair color for my senior pictures [which I'm taking in two days]. It turned out looking just like my hair did before I dyed it blond, except shinier. =]

Now, this afternoon, my mom and I had a billion errands to run. Okay - not a billion, but a few. We stopped by the gas station, we went to Pizza Hut to get my sister and her fiance's paychecks, went to the bank to deposit the paychecks, started to go to the library until I noticed that I did not have my library card OR ID on me so we turned around, went shopping for clothes to wear in my senior pictures [which we successfully bought $50 worth of clothes at Value City], and went to the grocery store. Phew, that's a mouthful, huh? At the grocery store, we got some chicken fingers, which we ate happily and then settled down to watch Dirty Dancing - which I have to say was a fabulous movie !! I read Jane Eyre some, and attempted sleep but alas, I cannot fall asleep. And here we are !!

Today has been an easy-going day, a day that we often take advantage of, but as I said my prayers tonight, I realized how thankful I was that the day was so simplistic and calm. I was reveling in the time I had to just sit down and relax because over the past month, I haven't had a lot of time to do that. I've always been up and running around - busy doing this and going here, it's nice to just lay back and enjoy life.

I don't really have much else to say - sorry! Even though you're probably bored to death anyway, but hey, this is my life. Take it or leave it. Ha ha. I hope you have a fantastic day, and as I said before, comments are encouraged [wink wink] and prayer requests are also encouraged. Keep in mind that I DO pray for these things. God Bless each and every one of you!!


Love always,
Michelle
