Spring Break

• I've been on spring break for the last 10+ days
• Its been fun
• Doing lots of nothing besides staying under covers
• Sleeping in, eating and watching movies
• I could see myself doing this for the rest of my life
• Ok, I'm kidding
• It gets old after a while
• You get so used to waking up to an agenda of to-do things
• And then you've a week off and have absolutely no idea what to do with it
• I caught up on sleep
• And all my shows
• I love, love the comedy-How I met your mother-
• It was a fun time off
• I'm not thrilled to be going back to work and school
• But I'm also not sure I could hack staying indoors for another day
• Ok, I know I'll be taking all of these back on Monday
• But let's only dwell on now
• I'm counting down to the end of April
• Wow I've been learning growing up is totally something else
• I love it. All the responsibility and you know the whole shebang that comes with it
  
• Anyway I'm learning it's not really all it's made out to be
• Ok so there's the fun side of growing up
  
• And then there is pains of growing up
• I'm afraid growing up is more of an ongoing process than a stage you hit then it plateaus (which actually is what I always thought it to be for a long while)
• I'm glad it's ongoing b/c perfectly honestly I don't do well with time limits.
  
• I know I'm not making a whole lot of sense
• But growing up is a process I've been continually experiencing and also something that has been on my mind a lot lately
• Growing up. It's everywhere.
• It might be a bit scary but am learning to embrace it alright
• It's when you learn to make decisions
• It's when you learn to slow down and not be rash
• It's when you learn to hold a straight face and when to laugh it off
  
• It's learning the consequences
• It's keeping the lessons
• It's learning to work with what you have
• It's selflessness
• Growing up? it's a lot of things
• I could not possibly write them all
• But, I'm also learning that...
  
• It's also learning to pray without ceasing
• And seeking the best direction from God
