the new job.

I can't believe I'm about to say this, but for 5 days now I've woken up at 6:09am (I know its very odd, its all Nicole's fault!)...and I like it.  I'm actually enjoying waking up super early.  Craziness!  I wake up, make some cereal and coffee and sit down and read my bible until about 7:30, then get ready for work, always with more extra time to do my morning blog-stalking!  Its awesome :)  Then I go to work, get off at 5, and come home to Mark!  Yesterday I came home to dishes unloaded, bathroom tidied up, living room looking awesome...Um, I'm about to marry the most amazing man, he is so great! 
         I guess all this was leading up to me telling you about my new job.  Its not that exciting, but in the last week and a half, I've changed only ONE diaper (yay!).  So far I've just been doing a lot of filing, learning and trying to get the other receptionist caught up on paperwork piling up on her desk.  I think once I have actual responsibilities of my own it will get a little more exciting, but I like the redundancy of sitting at my desk everyday, knowing where everything is, and I love the organizing paperwork and filing everything exactly where its supposed to be. Yay for new job!
         In more news, we had our second session of pre-marital counseling, and it went great.  Mark and I both left feeling like we had both been completely honest about everything we talked about, and that we covered some good issues.  Our pastor A.J. Swaboda (who will be marrying us) has been doing the counseling with us, and he is always super encouraging.  Before we leave he always tells us how much he believes in our marriage and just how great of a couple he thinks we are...I love hearing that :) 
          More wedding talk....This weekend is my bridal shower in Coos Bay, I'm reallllly excited and a tad bit nervous...Just thinking that all those people are getting together just for me makes me feel strange, like I don't deserve it and holy crap I have to be the center of attention for a few hours!  But it should be fun, hopefully there will be cake and punch or something, and that will make me happy!  Next weekend is my Portland bridal shower, the week after that is Mark's bachelor party, then the next weekend is my bachelorette party, and then the next weekend...is our wedding!  Then Hawaii!  Then married life!  I can't wait to snuggle up with Mark every night!  Only 32 days and 6 hours left!  Eeeek!
         Thanks for reading all my babbling, I hope you guys are all doing great and having a good week so far!

to live is Christ, to die is gain.

The apostle Paul wrote those words in Philippians 1:21...God did some miraculous work thru Paul didn't he!? After Paul saw the light (literally) he traveled to Judea, Syria, Cilicia, Galatia, Pamphylia, Asia, Macedonia, Achaia and Italy. WOW. I've shared God's word....via skype to my bestie Nicole and...uhhh..shoot. What am I doing?! Yikes, I'm so ready to go, to tell of God's glory, to "Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and teaching." (2 Tim. 4:2) Its convicting to know that I really haven't done as much as I could be doing, if I died, I have no doubt I would meet Jesus, my Lord and Savior would know my heart and how much I love Him and my willingness and readiness to share Him with the world..but I also know He will stand before me and say, Look at what you could have had, if only you had come to me sooner, done My work rather than yours. In one of my earlier posts I had writ

What I've been HALFway reading.

Guys. I've started around 512 books over the last few months. I haven't finished any. GAH. Here's just a few - Divergent by Veronica Roth. I'm so excited to actually keep reading this. I loved the movies but feel like the books are ALWAYS better. I haven't read much of this one yet because I feel guilty every time I pick it up. I always feel like I should be reading something that will improve me. I'll finish it some day. Simple Steps to Foot pain Relief by Katy Bowman, MS. I started reading this one for clients who have foot / knee / hip / back / shoulder pain. Basically any pain. I love trying to help my clients more than what they expect, so bits of information I can soak in and pass on are great! Katy Bowman does a great job breaking down the foot and then gives some awesome techniques on things you can do to help your feet. I'm close to done with this one actually, and thats good because it's due back at the library in a few days. Goo

Weekend

This weekend M and I got to go to Portland and spend some time with my sister and her family. She has two little boys and one on the way, so every second has noise/crying/laughter. Joellen and I got to spend some time away (went to the mall) which was a perfect break from chaos. I did get quite a bit of knitting done and was able to post some new stuff up on my Etsy shop ! I also got three custom orders (yay!!). If you see anything on my site you like but are interested in a different size, color or color combos just let me know! Here is a peek of my new product!
