Home Home on the Range

Well, here I am in Breton.
Breton, Alberta.
Been here for a couple weeks now, although I've been driving all over the place, so it's not like I've actually been here much. I've driven almost 4000km in the past 2 weeks, and still have a Red Deer trip to see the fabulous Kelsey and then it's back to Winnipeg...probably on Saturday.

Not sure how badly I want to go back. I kind of want to stay. I love the mountains (we went to Jasper to see Jen) and I love my Edmonton friends (you know who you are!) and I love my family (they know who they are too). Luckily, church was about how God really does close doors for us soemtimes...and I think when there is a nurse hiring freeze it's a pretty closed door. Ha. Although it would be great to come back so that I could be closer...and be a better bridesmaid...CUZ I GET TO BE A BRIDESMAID NEXT SUMMER!!!!! Yahoo.

It's been a good trip. Lots of wonderful friends. Lots of family. IV time. NO WORK!!! But I'm missing my roommates (although I think they watched Paschendale and I so do not want to watch that movie). I figure I should go back to work and make money. I guess it's time to go back soon. Probably on Saturday since I still have grad and hang out time with the fabulous Kelsey, and the fabulous Megan, and whoever shows up at the fabulous Jess' bonfire Friday. (be there!!)

I wonder where I'll be. In the future. It's weird. My mom was married when she was 23. A lot of my friends are married or getting married or even parents already. I'm so not on that track. There are a lot of other friends who aren't married, getting married, or parents but it's harder to focus on that part. That is my goal. To be more content and to make my life more full. To laugh a lot. To get to know God in Winnipeg. To study and read His word. Love more. Be selfish less. Get over myself. Find balance.
Be myself.

Beautiful Katie! I love your thoughts, and your roommates miss you too. I can't believe it has been 2 weeks already. Soak in the mountains.
