Back to Basics

In my opinion, I tend to live a pretty lucrative life. I live in a house, sleep in one of the most comfortable beds, work at a place I enjoy with an amazing boss, have a pretty sweet roommate who lends me her car, don’t cook my own meals and have satellite tv. I’d say it doesn’t quite get better than this. Sure, I can find things to complain about- but I’ve been praying about those things and have come to the conclusion that they’re really not worth the time to whine about.


Once I resigned myself to just truly enjoying what I had, the Lord blessed me! Someone offered to buy me a car. Like, a nice car! I’m still in shock, I’ll be honest. There’s nothing in me that thinks I deserve a car, however this person thought I did. So, once again everyone, as of Wednesday-ish I will be mobile!! It’s a pretty little 2006 Pontiac Wave with air conditioning. Oh yes… no more days of opening the two windows in the car and dying of heat while waiting at red lights. Summers in Quebec are brutal sans AC. What a blessing eh?!


So in light of the nouveau auto, I’ve been thinking about my family and friends as well. I’m so blessed to have so many outstanding and amazing people in my life. Friends that are always there for you, no matter what happens- brave people who choose to allow you into their lives so that you could be a part of it.

I wouldn’t trade any of them for the world!!
