Engagement

Engagement is such an exciting time, so far. It is the planning/waiting period before the joining to two families, for life. I am so excited to know that someone chose me. Blake chose me, only me, to have as his for the rest of his life. Our waiter at the restaurant told us that he hopes it (our marraige) lasts a lifetime. I know it will. By the grace of God, we will endure all things. I am so excited to feel the security of the promise of a lifetime with one man, the man I believe the Lord has made just for me and me for him. Engagement is fun. I've alreading lost myself in planning, brainstorming, and seeing my dream day come to life. I can't even believe that I am really engaged!

Sleep

O Sleep, I never get enough! I mean I have before, I have gotten too much, alot actually. I would love to be able to sleep in, at least moderately, every day. That would be amazing. I have been known to sleep in too late on occasion, then I'm just tierd all day. It would be so nice though, to be able to go to bed at a normal hour. This semester is trying to turn me noctural...but I'm not, I'm still human....AND I NEED SLEEP. I love naps, when I rarely, very rarely get to enjoy them. Today I actually took about a 30 minute nap, but that was in exchange of 30 minutes of reading for one of my classes. How can I expect my body to act normal without proper sleep???..I can't. I'm so glad tomorrow, or rather, today is Friday! This weekend will be lots of catch up sleep for me. Although, you can't really catch up on sleep, once it's gone, you lose it. You can only do better in the future. So, since I'm writing about it and therefore thinking about it......I'm going to sleep! : )
