Eeeeeeeeeee!

I'm not sure how this ever escaped me before, but I just learned last night, that you can make your OWN granola!!! WHOA.  I know this may not be a light bulb moment for you, but it was for me... and now i've got delicious yummy granola baking in my oven and the smell is tickling the air in my entire household!  Next up, i'm going to make my own yogurt- the granola needs a good friend :)

Current state of mind:  OVERWHELMED!

I once read a quote that went like this "We make plans, and God laughs."  God must get alot of laughs out of me and my life.  Nothing ever seems to go the way I had hoped.  Circumstances are constantly changing and curve balls are being thrown from every direction.

*a break up, and then a make up with a best friend
*my teenage daughter lost her mind for a few days
