Atypical me doing the typical starter...

Hello friends-

For starters, I used to blog frequently in undergraduate and I have recently found that I miss it.  I have decided to pick back up blogging and I hope my small insight will bring you some joy and probably some laughs. 

My life very recently: I just took my 18th trip to Walt Disney World and my 3rd Disney cruise.  Blessed!?! Yes, beyond words.  If you know me, you know that Disney is sewn into my life --- while I don't know the reasoning that I have been chosen, I am happy to be a believer in the magic that occurs on a daily basis in a very wonderful spot in sunny Florida :)  Nerd alert: I frequently think during random days, I'm sure someone is enjoying my favorite rides, the smells, the sights, and the wonder of my favorite vacation spot :) I wonder what the weather is like and how the parade went.  How were the rides?  Did the guests forget about the world even if for only a moment as they watched their children delight in the characters and the castle? Yeah, I know I'm odd, but these thoughts do run through my mind --- especially directly post-vacation.

What to expect here: my thoughts, stories about my day, reflections on God and what He is doing in me, music lyrics, quotes, book suggestions, etc.  Some pieces will be comical.  Some pieces will be serious.  Some pieces will make no sense.

This is precisely what I did tonight.  I drove, jammed to my tunes, and forgot about the world for a while.  Driving is my outlet and has been since I was 16.  I loved driving tonight with the windows down just watching the sky change with storms and sun, storms and sun.  I don't know what it is, but something about a car with the windows down and tunes up just erases the problems (even if only momentarily) :)

Stay tuned for my blog post later this week regarding a child's image of God and His relationship to adults.
