So I haven't posted in nearly two months, and you probably saw this and thought, "Ooh, pictures!"... and then you got disappointed when there were no pictures. I do have pictures I need to post, and I've had them for a solid month (at least). Unfortunately, they won't be up for another several weeks, when I might finally be able to make time for it. In the next couple of weeks I have a Geometry test, a Chemistry test, lab, and lab report, and a quiz, test, and ten-page paper in Government. I've had a lot to do in the past few weeks, as well, but I probably could have found time to something on here.. I've been neck-deep in Paolini's newest book, Inheritance, since Thursday and I just finished it today. It's awesome... until the end. But I won't give out any spoilers.
Since this post is rather rambling and reasonless, I might as well throw in some late Thanksgiving elements, with one category of things that I'm thankful for: nights. Nights up late next to the fire; nights up late with a book; nights when those are combined; evenings spent playing video games, watching TV, and hanging out with my neighbor/one of my best friends; nights spent chatting with my other best friend until the early morning; nights spent out in the living room with the warmth, smell, and orange glow of the fire in the stove on one side, and the lights and smell from the Christmas tree on the other (...this only applies to the years we have a tree, of course); evenings spent at my grandparents house with the best family and extended family ever... Nights when I can't sleep through the happy, contenting throb of thoughts and dreams swirling around in my head. These are the best nights in the world. I'm thankful for friendship - I lost one for several months this summer, and I'm so glad I have it again. And after being around people (especially my neighbor/best friend) that have been hurt by two suicides in the past few months, and seeing how much pain is caused by it... I'm thankful for life.
So there you go, a post. Again, I'm sorry I haven't done much with photography lately... I'll see what I can do over Christmas break to make up for it. Until then, I've got nothing. My cousin had an idea a while back for a photo-a-day challenge, so maybe we'll try that... Ideas, people?
It sounds like you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! And yes when I saw your FB post I squeed like a Kindergardener! I was a little disappointed to see no pictures, but nonetheless, it is a post, and a very good one at that! But with all those test I'll let you slide just this once... :-P I think the photo-a-day challenge would be great! Easier on you and awesome for your stalkers! :-)
ReplyDeleteOh and by the way, your blog looks really really good!
This was a good post. I remember thinking this year when someone asked what I was thankful for was "too much to even mention." It seems God keeps bringing it back to me.
