Don't be afraid to ask for help

These last couple of days of my life have been a little weird and crazy! Sunday when I was leaving from church I fell down 3 steps and hurt my foot. One of the guys came out to see about me but me being the stubborn person I am I said I was fine and didn't need any help. Well I was WRONG!!!

See I have this extra bone in both of my feet (The doctor called it something special with this really long name but I couldn't tell ya what that is). Well when I fell I tore some cartilage between my foot bone and the extra bone and also pulled some muscles. Now I have to wear a boot for 2 weeks and be on crutches for about a week.

This is very hard for me to do because I'm a very outgoing and busy person. I'm always on the go and always doing things. Through all of this I'm having to learn that I need to rely on people and that I can't do things on my own. I need to slow down and enjoy life.

Its that little things

With everything that is going on in my life right now I have forgotten about the little things in my life that make me happy. I get up in the mornings and either go to work or school, come home, do homework, visit with the family some and then go to bed. But this past weekend my grandparents came up from Alabama.

Earlier in the week I had asked Granddad if he would bring me some Lacy's Ham and Cheese Sandwiches and of course he said YES. Lacy's is a little hole in the wall place in my hometown that has the BEST ham and cheese sandwiches and pizza in the world! I have missed it a lot since we moved up here. I know its sad, but if you ever have one you will understand where I'm coming from.

Thursday when I got home from classes I was showing Mawmaw my bathroom that I had painted all by myself and she asked what the quote was that was on my wall.
When I wake up in the mornings and are getting ready in my bathroom I see this but hadn't really looked at in a while. Mawmaw saying something about it really triggered something with me. You know it really is the truth. You can't live your life having regrets or wishing that you would or could do something. Get out there and be the person you want to be and do what you want to do. After everything that I have gone through in the last month I'm really living by this now.

Need a Break?

Ever feel like you just run and run and run and then you finally crash? Well that's me right now. BIG TIME!

These past couple of weeks have been very stressful and full of decisions that I haven't wanted to make. Some of them turned out good but some turned out bad. Why can't life be easier? Oh that's right if it were easier it would be boring.

A couple of weeks ago was my spring break but I really didn't get one because I was working so much, like I do every week. Yes it was nice working and making the money but I'm kind of regretting it now. I wish I would have taken a day or two to do nothing at all.

Right now I'm really wanting to get away for here and go to Alabama to my little small hometown and sit on my grandfather's pier and go fishing. Just to slow down and be lazy for a couple of days would be so amazing right now.

Oh the joys of life!
