No weeping, no hurt or pain, no suffering, You hold me now

Hillsong is the band of choice right now on my iTunes.  I can't get enough of the power behind their words and music.  Since I've been doing a lot of school things this week I can't help but take time out and just worship.  God has provided a lot for me and sometimes (ok most of the time) I take it for granted.  He has provided me with a job, an affordable apartment, a family that loves me, wonderful colleagues, supportive friends, and a school where both the parents and students are wonderful to work with.  When days get hard and things are getting stressful, I need to start slowing down and refocusing on what God has done in my life and what He wants me to do.

Today overall was a good day.  I was able to get all my instruments set up and start setting up the elementary classroom.  I think one more day will get me all set and one day at the middle school will get me all set for the first day.  I also got a chance to spend some time with a great friend helping her with her supply order and getting a pedicure with her.  Tomorrow will be a day of me packing what I can and getting my laundry together.  I'm so excited to go to Nashville and I can't wait to see my brother and where he lives.

Top 5 for the day:
1. Girl time with a great friend
2. Helping out in the office with delivery of textbooks and some supplies to lighten the secretary's load of work :)
3. Seeing my classroom start to come together
4. Pedicure with awesome colored nail color and great massage
5. Leftovers for dinner :)

Putting the instruments together/away

My AWESOME nail color for Nashville :)
