i no longer blog...if it has not been clear up to this point...i hope that it is now..

this is not to say that i will never blog again...
this is only to say...do not send me nasty emails telling me to...if you know me...you should know that these tactics do not work...and if you really know me..you know that something better is to come...

love you all...thanks for reading thus far...hope you haven't been bored or disappointed...

i wish i had a poem...but i don't...e

MY blog will never be less self-referential...it is MY blog.
MY blog is about MY life and the things that happen to ME and to MY friends (who also happen to be bloggers)
others read MY blog because it will let them know where I am at.
some read MY blog to know how to better pray for ME.
you cannot email ME from MY blog because I don't care what you think.
all those opinions that i do care about already have MY email address. (except for a few in england...and those of you who are loved by me are not to take offense to the last statement if you have lost or never had MY email)
these are a few reasons why I started to blog.
I did not want to blog at first because I thought it silly.
however, I have a hard time keeping up with all the people that God has put in my path over the past two years...so we blog to keep up with one another.
so if you think these blogging reasons are lame...then...
DON'T read MY blog...it will always be about something that has affected ME! thank you...e

HONEY....I'M HOOOOOOOMMMMMME!!!!!! SHOCKING BEHAVIOR...I KNOW...i was all wrapped up in "it is freakin' cold out here" garb...when i stepped off the plane...met with a big hug from my sister and my mom ran in and said those words that only mom can say..."hey babygirl, i'm so glad my baby is home!"....tender warm fuzzies to say the least....and then a huge happy moment when nathan came over...(and gave me an amazing bag'o'goodies..that were too expensive to mail to the czech republic)...we stayed up way past our bedtimes and talked and hugged and laughed...

i do feel the need to blog about the amazing meal of wild geese...two to be exact...that andrew made the night i left and we drank wine that i bought in rioja this summer....company was great...i miss those guys already...

.....and i can't wait...already ready to come to austin....my bags are not unpacked....i am going to say some hellos and cut some hair here in h-town and then be on my way....i need to get some big hugs in here as well....

oh...stace...i think my t-shirt would say...hey shitheads--come be church with us!
no...i would never say that.....mwahahahahahahah!!!

back in england...having a great time with...jen and fran...the married couple to be...i hung out with dave and nikki foot (an amazing couple) and rach....i've seen a very apologetic martin pickles...who asks how stacy is doing...and yet no sign of hugh munro (who will be in very big trouble if he is still in b'ham)...this city seems to have a much different vibe than when i was here one month ago...walking through broomhill is even different...new shops...old shops upgraded...i have actually seen the peak district...i went to a town called hope and had my first cream tea...amazing...real cream, i hear, makes all the difference...and a walk through the cemetary...which makes me miss home (family reunions)...i walked through a church that was almost 1000 yrs. old...impressive...i'm not that easily impressed these days (something i'm trying to figure out) but this charming, quaint, little willage has impressed my wooly english socks off...at the end of this village stands a mountain...pedestrian streets lead back to it and there is a cave...the devilsarse....yes! indeed...you can go to it at www.thedevilsarse.com...not kidding...dave foot taught us how to play pooh sticks...which is much different than poo sticks..which, at first, is what i thought he meant...rach and nikki won...i lost...i claimed interference...a duck...crazy english ducks...they don't even quack...well, i must go...order of service to decorate...and i hear drew is coming tomorrow....love you all...e
