these are the days

So I took on more than I can handle... YET again. Between working for Studio M and babysitting twice on Thursdays, I have a full schedule. But add on school, FISH Teens, my photography business, and like 4 new projects that my boss gave me. (Updating our yellow pages online listing, coming up with a good senior campaign, getting prices for an ad on Facebook, and figuring out how to market better to the youth in our area.)
I find myself not having time to 'shlep' around anymore, because every waking moment is filled with me moving at lightning speed to get every thing done. I like being busy, I really do, but when I am working on things until 12 in the morning, I have to wonder about the quality of my work. Am I doing it to the best of my ability? At this point, I can't really cut anything off of my plate so I have to keep pounding through it... with God's help, of course. Today, I am hoping that I don't have too much to package at work so I can get right on the phone and start working on some of my new projects. This weekend, I am hoping to get all of the FISH Teens stuff caught up and send our website content over to the builder.
And yet, amidst all of this, God is still so awesome. He always helps me relax at the end of the day by giving a majestic display of His glory...

Gee.

I just had a thought. This time next summer, I will have chosen a college, secured financial aide, and found a room mate. The only decisions left will be what color I want my dorm room bed spread. It's a bittersweet thought. How I would LOVE to have all of the decisions decided and set in place for next fall, but I've heard that this is all part of enjoying the ride. I should be taking each day of this summer to relax and enjoy myself, because God knows next summer won't be as breezy. A small update on my college status. -I'm down to Art Education or Art Therapy as a major. (leaning toward Art Ed.) -I finally scheduled my SAT test date. (October 10th, 2009) -I found 5 colleges in Pennsylvania that offer Art Ed as an official major... *Messiah College (Harrisburg) *Seton Hill University (Greensburg) *The University of Edinboro (North... close to Erie) *Indiana University of Pennsylvania (Indiana, Pa. duh. ha...

Not Much but Just Enough

It is so incredibly easy to lose sight of where you are in life.  One thing piles onto the next and all of a sudden you are swampped with a million things lined up in your datebook and a billion thoughts going through your mind.  Sometimes I get so overwhelemed in my own life and busyness that I lose track of all the great things God is doing for me.  As some of you may know, I quit my job at Giant Eagle to persue photography full time.  I can't really describe the feeling of peace I had about it when I made the decision; I just knew it was the right thing to do.  At first it was slow going and kind of discouraging, but over the last couple of months I have been able to make enough money solely through photography to support myself and all of my expenses.  It would be easy to stop at that and brag on myself and my accomplishments, but I truly am humbled by the fact that God would choose to bless my efforts to use the talent he gave me to make a living....

I'll take 3 please!

So today as I was sitting in the waiting room of National Tire and Battery getting my car's oil changed I was watching the "Fox Business" channel. Minute after minute went by, but it seemed like hours. The mundane news anchors talked about how dumb it is to invest in gold bars, and how the flies in Georgia are beginning to migrate North for the winter. (the thing about flies isnt real, but it shows you how much attention I was paying to the TV). I was just about to bust out my iPod when I heard something that piqued my attention. A famous Japanese fashion designer invented an H1N1 suit. It looks just like a business suit, but the fabric on the outside has high-powered infection repellant so the H1N1 germ is killed instantly upon contact. If you want more details so you can laugh (or maybe you might be considering purchasing one for yourself) you can click here . The other thing I HAD to laugh at is the fact that Barrack Hussien Obama is the winner of this year'...
