i thank You God

Do you ever have those days that just feel like they last forever? This has been one of those days where I look at the clock and can't believe it's only 4:15pm! It seriously has to be like 8pm by now. Some random thoughts for today...


  • American Airline, what's the dealy-o? You've got my bud Sarah stranded. Not cool!

  • Sunshine is a blessing it's like getting a butterfly kiss on the cheek!

  • My family is amazing. They let me use their shower again today b/c my hot water was out.

  • I am so impressed with myself b/c my hot water heater company sent me a new motherboard for my thermostat/diagnostic system and I put the new one in myself! I think it's even working! We'll see if my house is still there when I get home. (Say a little prayer!)

  • I am leaving for London in 46 days (not counting today)!!! Woo Hoo!

Here's a great poem for you for spring:


i thank You God for most this amazing


i thank you God for most this amazing


day: for the leaping greenly spirits of trees


and a blue true dream of sky; and for everything


which is natural which is infinite which is yes



(i who have died am alive again today,


and this is the sun's birthday; this is the birth


day of life and of love and wings: and of the gay


great happening illimitably earth)



how should tasting touching hearing seeing


breathing any-lifted from the no


of all nothing-human merely being


doubt unimaginable You?



(now the ears of my ears awake and


now the eyes of my eyes are opened)


-E.E. Cummings 1894-1962

I LOVE that poem! Love it! One of my favorites! It's such a beautiful expression of how God speaks to us in his creation. 42 days!! Ahh!
