untitled.

i always have a title for my posts before i start writing. it's kinda weird because i never have headlines for my stories before i write them. i always write the headline last -- after i know how the story turns out.

well, on this post. there is no title.

i don't know where i'm going.

my life in six words right there: "i don't know where i'm going."

i don't like wednesday nights this summer. i go to church, but then i have to come home 'cause it's ellie's bedtime; landon has to go to the youth activity. it's 10:49 p.m., and he still isn't back. i get the impression that he takes advantage of wednesday night youth activities. i think the kids are supposed to be picked up or gone by 10. we live 1 minutes (yeah, i said minutes) from the church. hmmm.. i just don't like being without him. i'm without him too much as it is.

***

i'm praying for a specific phone call tomorrow. will you please pray with me? i'm here trying to figure out "where i'm going." i know, i know, God. i know You're leading to wherever we're going.

***

ellie's crying.. hold on.

***

OK. back.

this might be tmi, but my pelvis hurts. ever since i had the baby -- almost six months ago now -- i've had this feeling of being split down the middle. squeezing my knees together takes effort. for awhile i thought it was nursing hormones making my joints loose still, but i haven't nursed (...) for almost two months now. it's worse when i sit for long periods of time.

***

did i mention i'm praying for a call tomorrow? yeah. i am.

i'm so proud of kylah. she is so beautiful and wonderful. i know you all know, but she got a job in san antonio. northside isd. the school she'll teach first grade at was rated "recognized" by the TEA for 2007. ratings were released today. i'm an education reporter. nerdy, i know.

***

he's still not home.

i think doc is hungry. he tends to skittle about like a spaz when he's hungry. i should get him some food.

i cannot believe jenny can remember that many details. i remember a lot, but sheesh. the best lines in my love story novel would say, "i see christmases in your eyes" and "would it be crazy if i told you i think i'm falling in love with you?" they're only 13 at this point...this is the longest story ever told. i LOVE it.

***

OK...going to bed.

do you ever just have so much to say that nothing can get out?
