How I love where I live

I love Indy where I live. Mom and dad called me last night and told me about their 8 inches of lake effect snow. Hahaha was all I can say, yeah its cold here but there is no snow! Tonight me and Matty went to the YMCA Bonfire. How fun they had smores and popcorn and apples with carmels drizzled all over them and some awesome chili. I love fall love the smells, the sites and there is nothing more peaceful to me than a cold clear night with the sky full of stars!

I have been in the word alot lately about contentment and how Christ desires us to be content in whatever situation we are in....I know thats something I struggle with. I ask myself alot why am I in the mess I am in and how can I be content when lonelieness and frustration rear its ugly head?

Thanksgiving is a week away and this week I have been doing some thinking about what I am thankful for as well as realizing that this will be the 1st thanksgiving ever that I have not spent it with my mom and dad. I will be here since I am going up to mom and dads the following weekend so I can see Dustin in his Christmas play and we can celebrate Christmas since I cannot drive that far home for Christmas because of the baby. If anyone is headed to South Bend and would like to give me a ride and the dog I would love to go home for Christmas (just asking, half kidding). This will also be my 1st Christmas since the divorce which is kind of hard but oh well. I am trying to just move on from Christmas ....as for thanksgiving I am hoping to go out with some friends I have met down here like go to Cracker Barrel for dinner and then to a movie. Its going to be weird not being home but next year I am going to be home with bells on. Its amazing how much life changes in one year. Alison will be here in 10 weeks and then I will be mom again I cant wait. Well gonna head to bed I am exhausted. God Bless you all.
