happy wednesday...it's raining here but it got rid of all the snow. yay!! i think i have decided that snow is evil...;)

so why is snow evil you ask?? i think it is because i had one of the worst nights of my life on saturday. i was at my friend holli's house in pa and left there kinda late...but not that late. anyway, we didn't know it had been snowing until i walked outside. but, stupid me, i thought i could totally handle it. well, to make a really long story short - i couldn't handle it. the roads were awful, i was sliding everywhere, i was passing people who had wiped out, i couldn't see where i was going, and i totally thought i as going to get in an accident. i was super nervous and by the time i got home i was a wreck. i couldn't get my car up the driveway (too slippery) and kept sliding back down. so, i finally gave up and parked on the street. i woke up to a ticket. effing new jersey. anyway, i was praying the whole way home and god did totally provide. i have learned my lesson and will not drive when it is that bad again. i do have a tendency to think i can do more then i can. (theme of my life.)

my class at pbu was good. it was long but i enjoyed it. there were only five of us in the class...it was crazy. it was a family life/education enrichment program. i really hope that i will be able to use it in ministry now and with my own family in the future. the spring semester starts on monday. good stuff.

work is going well. i am keeping busy and love the kids. i lost my camera though which is why i haven't been posting any pics of them lately...:(

tomorrow i am going to lewisburg. it's matt's 30th bday. so, if you know him, be sure to wish him a happy bday. normally i probably wouldn't drive 2 hours for a bday party but he is a special friend and it is a big birthday. wow, i can't even believe that i am getting closer to 30. i know it is 3 years away, but i am in denial.

don't really have many plans for this weekend. i would love to catch a hockey game somewhere and maybe see a movie. (go see "end of the spear.") anyone interested?? i also might help josh with his kitchen. (which i am excited about...the martha stewart in me.) but - this is my last "free" weekend for a bit so i want to make the most of it. so yeah, call me.

oooh i just saw that one of my fave shows is on tonight. oh now i am excited. hahaha. i'm a sucker for (some) reality tv.

i'll end this entry talking about my dear friend amy. amy's mom died suddenly and i would love it if you can keep her and her family in your prayers. it is so crazy. first mel's dad and now amy's mom. (so please remember amy and mel.) i cannot even imagine having to deal with that. it makes you want to tell everyone how you feel about them because you really don't know what is going to happen from one second to the next. so, know that i love each of you and are thankful to know you. each of you are so special and i have been blessed to have you as a part of my life.
