7 months later.....

Well, here I am again having neglected this blog for seven months, but now...yes NOW i think i am going to keep writing and keep people updated on my life. Why does it always seem like there needs to be something "exciting" going on for me to think people are interested?? I dont know, maybe this will continue to be as un-read as ever! But Shelley I know you're out there ;)

It is so interesting reading my last post actually...especially the part about living my life doing what I love to do and just thinking about what was next. Next has arrived.....

In 10 short days I am leaving Red Deer for Kamloops B.C. I am in the process of selling my condo, moving my stuff and trying to mentally prepare for a new place and new people. The reason I'm going is to attend TRU (thompson rivers university) They have an amazing outdoor adventure program that i've been accepted to! This type of program has been in my head and on my heart ever since living in New Zealand a few years ago, but I never pursued it thinking possibly God had other ideas for me. Well, the desire never left me and this time in my life seemed like a good time to try something new so i started looking for schools and applied to a few different programs too, but settled on this one. I keep thinking it might be a year to develop my hobby skills....but at least it will be a fun one, and next year God will be just as faithful to lead into whatever is supposed to happen then! One thing i keep learning is that God is faithful!!!

I guess that's the main news of my life. Other than that my summer has been good. I've done some hiking here and there, visited Grimshaw, AB to see my cousin Tam and her husband Jesse and Tam's growing belly. And I've painted, and painted, and painted some more.

well tonight I'm off to MEC...one of the many pluses of going into an outdoor adventure program is its a great excuse to get gear!!
