ramblings

This morning, dad asked me when he should start building a ramp in front of the house....and mom asked me if we were getting engaged. Wow, never expected that from mom and dad, and they were so calm about it. I know that they like Jason and they know that I am not naive and stupid, but I just thought they might have more reservations about their baby girl talkin about marriage.

I am sooooo in love. This is such a great feeling, and it feels better knowing my parents aren't gonna freak out on us. I get to meet his parents this weekend, and after tomorrow is done with, I think I may be a little bit nervous about it. I go to Sherbrooke Special Care Home tomorrow for my first day of field placement. I am working with 2 ladies, one has MS and the other is older and has serious arthritis and has had at least a couple of major joint replacements. I was a little concerned about getting paired up with someone who has cognitive difficulties or cannot speak. I realize that I would have been okay, but I feel good with the residents I was paired with, but I am a little nervous. So if you read this before Thursday morning, could you say a little prayer for me, just for calmness, and ease with going there. I don't want to be nervous, I have no reason to be nervous.

After tomorrow morning, and I have time to think about meeting Jay's parents, I may start to get a little nervous. Just wait until Saturday at work, when I have 8hrs to sit there and think about it and get worked up. I am sure I will be okay, but the potential exists to get nervous. From what I have heard, they are great people, and remind me a lot of my parents to an extent. So if you could pray for that too...

Today, I was putting a hair elastic in my hair, and then it was crooked, so I went to take it out and it was all tangled up, so I decided to cut it out of my hair. So I got some scissors, and cut it. And a ~2 inch long chunk of hair came with it. Just fell right onto my shoulder.....So today I phoned and made a hair appointment to get it evened out. I can't really tell where I cut it, but I am sure it'll make for some interesting times when I am trying to curl my hair :P I haven't had my hair cut since the middle of last October!!!

Jay and I are skipping out of church on Sunday to go see The Passion. I am looking forward to it, but at the same time am slightly apprehensive. I know that it is going to make me cry, and I am not a fan of crying in public. I realize that most people there will probably be crying as well, but still. But I do want to see it. I think that it will make an impact on the views of Easter this year, refresh the story in our minds and give us a realistic and shocking view of what our Saviour did for us! Wow! I do look forward to it :)

I think that's all, I am off to bed! Hope y'all are doing well!
