Can I spend some time writing about a very materialistic blessing? Today, after five years of having the same phone, received my iPhone in the mail! I'm not a phone junkie. I don't need to be on it every second of every day. I can't stand when people have relationships with their phones instead of the wonderful, beautiful, actually living people around them. I've been without a data plan until this day. I've been without apps until now. There is a way to survive, I promise. BUT, I can't say it isn't nice to finally have a smart phone.

Adjusting, Quite Well I Might Add (Day 266/267/268/269/270/271/272)
It's been a long but extremely enjoyable week. I should of written about this on day one but time got away from me. This job has been an amazing blessing. I have gotten in my car after work every day and smiled. I've just smiled. I've fallen into a job that I didn't believe existed. The kids took to me immediately. It didn't take much to gain their trust and respect. I have already fallen in love with them and it makes my day to hear "are you our coach today?!" I love making up the workouts, researching on how to make each workout effective, learning new ways to teach technique skills. It doesn't seem like a job.

My New Life (Day 262/263/264/265)
Once again I'm running behind. That whole packing and moving (for good) thing isn't easy. It takes quite a bit of time and I will tell you, it is not stress free. So lets just fast forward to the actual moving day. My blessings for the days of moving? That they're over!
It didn't hit me that I would be staying in Tulsa until I passed the city limit sign. I hope my parents realized that as I left them since I sort of rushed out the door. Once that sign was in my sights I started laughing. The kind of laugh where you throw your head back like you have no care in the world. Those laughs quickly turned into tears though. They were good tears, tears of "I can't believe this day actually got to happen," tears of sheer thankfulness. I swore there would be something from keeping me away from Tulsa. It's been so long since I've spent more than four days here at a time that I just thought this would be my life until one day something came along that took me to a new city. But I guess God had different plans and I'm so thankful for that.
