Lots of words *Edited*

Seriously? Almost Wednesday already?? Scratch that. It's 12:03am so the Wednesday train is already here.

Big Hunk has been off Sundays & Mondays so it really throws me off on my days of the week! It's a good thing I don't have days of the week underwear or I'd be wearing the wrong pair and things would really get ugly.

I don't even know what that last sentence means. Let's just pretend it never happened.

I had the BEST time last Thursday with my friend at the spa. My gracious, how I love that place. After a week of questionable weather, it turned out to be the most gorgeous day (probably a good 80*) and sooooo relaxing. My sister had already agreed to watch Mike & Ike for me, so I headed out to her house first to drop them off, and then headed to the closest thing to Paradise this world has to offer. Well, if you don't count the torture of stick figure 20-somethings walking around in bikinis to remind you of what once was, and will never be again. I'm pretty sure that is something "the other place" has to offer. Yes, gravity surely is a product of the devil.

As I was saying, it was wonderful. We had a delicious lunch (and I'm not above admitting that I didn't eat my normal trough-full amount since I was in a bathing suit), took a dip in the mud then laid out in the sun for a good while. There was great conversation and I am so blessed to have a friend that provides me with true godly fellowship as well as having lots in common. I can't wait to go back. Whaddya say Laura? Tomorrow?

I am totally, unforgivably boring lately. My poor little life consists of a rampant Dancing With the Stars obsession, multiple (okay hundreds) of games of WordTwist on Facebook, and a messy house. I can't be certain, but I think they may all be related.

Oh. And dog pee. And poo. My life definitely revolves around lots of paper towels and Woolite carpet cleaner.

See? I lied. My life is pure excitement people. I'm livin the dream.

So before my head hits the pillow, just wanted to share a couple things on my mind, and ask for your prayers. Perhaps the reason for the brainfarts in the blogging department is that my heart is just so burdened. Surely my need to watch men in tights fifty (trillion) times is so insignificant to all the Real Life happening out there. (But skip to 3:00 on the clock if you want to waste your life too. It's pure awesome.)

• Please please pray for a miracle. Kayleigh is still fighing for her life and it's not too late for a miracle. Our God is the god of miracles and moving mountains, and I won't stop praying for her!! Here is a link to Aimee & Adam's most recent post, as well as a little overview of all she's battled in her ten months of life. So amazing that one little precious person could go through so much in such a short time. Please pray for a miraculous healing and for her parents & siblings as they go through the unimaginable.
• Baby Gaines was born April 24th at just over 29 weeks. He is making great progress but, as you can imagine, he needs our prayers! Please pray for continued progress (please check the blog for specific terms), guidance and wisdom for the doctors & nursing staff, and for Gaines' parents, Beau & Brittany. All a new mommy & daddy want to do is hold and love on their baby, and I can't imagine the pain of not being able to. Yet. The day will come soon!

Well, the husband is getting irritated with me because I'm still up (it's 12:36am now). Considering I have to be up in 6 hours, I suppose he has a point.

Please pray for Preston Loyd. I believe he is about 5 years old, and a couple weeks ago he was in a horrific lawnmower accident. He has had multiple injuries and will be woken up by the doctors in the next few days. Please pray for no brain injury and healing for his other injuries!!
