jesus draw me ever nearer
as i labor through the storm
you have called me to this passage
and i'll follow, though i'm worn

may this journey bring a blessing
may i rise on wings of faith
and at the end of my heart's testing
with your likeness let me wake

jesus guide me through the tempest
keep my spirit staid and sure
when the midnight meets the morning
let me love you even more

let the treasures of the trial
form within me as i go
and at the end of this long passage
let me leave them at your throne

may this journey bring a blessing
may i rise on wings of faith
and at the end of my heart's testing
with your likeness let me wake...

today i walked into target to buy cotton rounds, and i walked out with a jacket and scone mix.

target.... dangerous. scones... so delicious. check these babies out! vanilla bean scones w/ sugar on top. my first batch was so small that i decided to make them bigger and add blueberries...

jyeah.

watching julie & julia for the 3rd time and was suddenly compelled to read my old entries again...

as i continued clicking "older.." reminiscing, laughing, holding my heart, i became sad that no one in my circle of friends blogs anymore. damnyoufacebook! i also know that my once faithful readers will not even know that i'm updating. and maybe that'll be a good thing. just me and xanga again.

i just moved in with rosierose last week after two faithful years living with the best roommate ever: minders. she actually came over today. CAME OVER. that has never happened before because before we lived together, we were too far for her to ever come over. we took a stroll to larchmont village and spent a grand time looking through various sales, bookstores, and shared a whoopie pie :) it's the end of an era, but the beginning of a new one! so much has changed since i last blogged...

i am with the love of my life, my school is moving into our own building, i am approaching my 5th year of teaching... i hope to keep this up. i WILL keep up! too tired now. wine is my friend.
