It's that time of year again.

Sooooooooooooo the parents just peaced outta town & left me in Bellingham. I have to say this year I did better in the "controlling my emotions" department. My only meltdown was when the boyfriend left which meant it was time to say goodbye to everyone else too. The whole 'act of leaving home' & saying goodbye to my family, including Tex which I feel sorry for because he has no idea what is going on, is what gets me everytime. Although I hear that it gets easier everytime; I'll believe it when I see it.

This year I also think I am more prepared emotionally & spiritually. Last year was definitely one of the lowest I have been in my whole life. Now that I am more mature in those areas, I feel like God is closest to me right now & in these moments of need. Hopefully I can stay strong in the next few weeks. I'm sure there will be times of sadness and what-not, but my spiritual life and growth will help me in that area. :)

Now it's back to the shower where I have to wear flip-flops each time & pray that no part of my body touches the walls in there too. (& try not to be grossed out by all of the hair in the drain. Ewwwwwww. It's now when I feel like Audrey's dirt in the shower at home after soccer games, would be better to shower in.)

Peace out...more to come in the next few days when I know I'll probably have a lot of time on my hands. :)
