Avoiding Sharing

I've been posting lots of picture posts recently, and I think it's because I don't want to write.  I have lots of things to say, I'm just not sure I'm wanting to share.  Probably a result of too many too personal posts...  Here is my favorite part of my room.


It's the top half of my self... I love it.  I need to fill in a few picture frames, but I'm terrible at getting photos off my camera and onto my computer, and worse at getting them printed.  I love my favorite books, my journals, and my latest top shelf edition, my "Santa Biblia", aka my Spanish Bible!  I love the pictures of me and my sisters and high school best friends.  Roommates to be added soon (ish).  I love my handmade turquoise necklace that K bought me for my birthday this past May.  I love my growing collection of seashell items from Kyle's family vacations.  I love my Chance by Channel perfume.  I love my best friends coin purse Alicia bought me once upon a time.  I love the painting Kyle did in 7th grade (most people don't know he's an amazing, but modest artist!).  I love the ring holder my grandmother gave me.  I am such a home body and I just love where I live.  I like to sit on the couch and do homework, or read and chat with Aimes.  I like to cuddle on the couch and watch sex and the city, or skype with a friend laying on my bed.  I love to clean, and organize, but not making my bed.  Which reminds me...  I don't remember if I told ya'll this or not, but I no longer sleep on my bed.  It's bunked and I hate climbing in and out, and I hate making my bed, and I hate having an unmade bed!  So I've been sleeping on my futon ALL year.  Well I haven't been making that either... so the last 2 nights I've tried to sleep on my futon when it's in couch form so when I wake up it's already made.  It has not worked out.  At 6 am this morning I had to switch it, and lay it out into a double bed even though I was waking up in an hour simply because I couldn't handle it anymore!  OK. Enough pointless jabber.  I'm going to go to bed after I watch a sermon from the Radical series given by Pastor David Platt who preaches at Brook Hill Church in Birmingham Alabama.  the series is AMAZING. And I encourage every single Christian to watch the 8 week series.  I'm only one week in and I can't get enough of it.  It forces you to reevaluate what it means to be a follower of Christ and your priorities.  It's funny how God works.  I was just thinking about Luke 14:26 the week prior to watching my first sermon, and what do you know, it's one of the first verses mentioned!  Watch it.  You won't be disappointed.  Goodnight.
-look at that, I set out to avoid sharing, and I ended up sharing.
