Today. Nothing really exciting. I cleaned the car. Trimmed down some more because I keep thinking I'm bringing too much. Though I have 2 suitcases of books! I'm such a Dominican. ;)
Relaxing now with SC's girls watching Despicable Me. It's such a cute movie.
I am so grateful that through God, I am re-entering tomorrow. :D

So....
So....I got a tattoo. One of my friends said I only live once. I prayed about it and decided to get one.
NOT!!!! :)
GOTCHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I did NOT get a tattoo today. I took a picture of my friends' tattoo and posed it as mine...if it was a REAL one, the skin would be red around the edges...and there's no way that my skin color is that light!
Thanks for the laughs.

Travel Day
It was hard leaving today. I took in all the smells in the morning. Coffee brewing.
A 12 hour drive included 4 pit stops. :)
And driving thru the Baltimore Harbor tunnel was awesome.
Because it means I'm about 3 hours from home!!!!
A few pictures from today. I did NOT take my eyes off the road while taking pictures. And yet there is an awesome shot of the Baltimore Harbor tunnel!

What a Wonderful night
What a Wonderful night this was.
A GNO sleepover turned into a surprise GNO with my girlfriends!!!
I never suspected a thing.
God is sooo good to me! I want for nothing.

Chained to the Eucharist and Mary
I am so blessed to have been in GA for four years.
Our Sweet Lord's plan has always been best!
I am content. At peace within myself. And So Full of Joy!!
I am in awe of the outpouring of Love. The people in my life show me Christ's Love thru their witness and action.
I moved out of AR's house today. The car is full. Some of it is going to SC's house. And the rest is coming with me.
Tonight is a GNO and sleepover with LF. Sunday: Fuddrucker's stop by and say hi. And one last family dinner.
Monday: 12 hours of driving, and it looks like its going to rain all day. Boo. Maybe I can drive out of it and beat it to MD. Hopefully I will arrive in MD by dinner time.
Tuesday and Wednesday: spending it with friends in MD.
And then Thursday. :D

Freestylin' Butterfly song for me
One of my seniors wrote me a song.
My favorite line: "Now she's going back, Satan take that!"
Here are the lyrics:
let's take a look at my youth minister
4 years counting, and I love her like a sister
June 11, to New Jersey.
No, she didn't rehearse this.
Back to Summit to be a nun, say what?
Yeah, 2nd time not first. Bc her soul thirsts.
Taking the leap, but not blind.
She's set her mind.
Living her vocation, through separation.
His plans not hers, but she's been following His voice.
Let's go back to a time when she was 17 and in life teen.
Spending her days by the tabernacle, like she's restrained and shackled.
But she was not penalized, she understood the sacrifice.
Her love for Him radiated, and so a journey was initiated.
She was told she should be a sister, what? uh uh mister.
You should try it out, it won't be a bummer. Sure sure she responded next summer.
Asked to go to a nun run, but turned it down. She was completely frozen.
But asked Jesus why, if she loved boys and made too much noise.
Got Asked again, but booked her schedule. which was a bit ridicule. But God had her sched cleared, since she wasn't being sincere.
Father had it all paid, so she went with the parade.
Came back on fire, Yeah, she was a little lighter.
Deciding where to enter, feeling desire to be a teacher.
She found a blog of cloistered nuns, but couldn't understand the idea of being secluded.
She was denied a teacher, her chance was ruined.
But the cloistered had perpetual rosary and perpetual adoration
She made no hesitations, she emailed a sister and they couldn't resist her.
Our Deepa was now a Dominican, but something was sunken. It was dark and she was alone. She had to make a hard decision, you know.
Back into the world, 2008. It was now too late. She ended up at Saint Thomas, Yeah she totally lost it.
Made new friends, impacted lives, but there's one special little butterfly.
& Butterfly says: I'll miss you and i'll love you, thanks for praying for me. But I see it's time for you to leave. We've laughed and we've cried. Our times were never dry. You've helped me grow bc I never get to low. You truly are an inspiration, such a wonderful sensation to have met you. God put us together for a reason. We're such alike, just like twins. I'll never forget Ikea days, and calling AAA. The chance to explore vocations and take me east of the nation. Retreats, lifenights and conventions. Chinese food, snowball and Fro-yo spoons. Sushi, baking and icecream. *swoon*
Now shes going back, satan take that.
Living her life for Jesus, in the Eucharist she sees us.
We love you sista & we'll always be with yah.

Well, then. JMJ, pray for us.
I have experienced a flood of Love!
Jesus has me right where He wants me.
I brought Snowball to CarMax on Thursday, and they offered $4,000. Not what I was expecting. But a decent offer. Just enough to pay off the car loan. So, I'm taking it back this week to accept their offer.
And, through generous people, I'm entering.
Praise God and Hallelujah!
The Life Teen going-away partay was tonight, and I loved every minute. My teens are amazing people! I am so privileged to be a part of their lives and to watch them mature into young adults. I am going to miss them tons. God has been so good to me!!!
Off to bed. Last dentist appointment in the morning. :)
