Insane Wednesdays...

...is a very true statement today.

So far, I have re-stringed Courtney (my beautiful acoustic guitar), gone to the chiropracter with my family, gone to the commissary, gone to starbucks (yum) come home and put a ton of food away. I still have to go to the bank, go to party city to pick up decorations for Dad's retirement ceremony, then I have to go to the church to babysit like, 5 kids, restring Anthony's guitar (he really needs it) and then go home and have a history lesson! *gasps for air* Oh Lord, save me today! :)

I'm very excited about Daddy's retirement ceremony, though. I'm so proud of him. I'm honestly going to miss the excitement of seeing his ship pull in after a deployment. Of course, i don't really miss the deployments themselves, even though it was always cool to hear about the adventures Dad got to experience, but I think I will miss Navy life. Either way, God has something else planned for us and there are still plenty more adventures we have yet to experience, and I'm so ready for them. :D
So yeah, books. I love my books. I want to build up my own personal library in my room. So far so good! Ben and I just started Wuthering Heights a couple days ago. I'm really not sure what to expect of this story, to be honest. The back of the book reads "Wuthering Heights-Emily Bronte's only novel-remains one of literature's most disturbing explorations into the dark side of romantic passion." I have this odd feeling that Emily Bronte was not a very happy lady.:-\
Anyway, I'm still enjoying it (I really can't speak for Ben) even though we're only at chapter three. It seems to be a very curious book. :P I'm also reading a book that Ben lent to me called "Keeping a Princess Heart." No worries, he had to get a boy book and a girl book (ya know, so he can relate to both) and this was the girl book he chose. I'm really getting a lot out of it. In a nutshell, it's encouraging us females not to lose our hopes and dreams in the cruel world of reality. But not holding onto an illusion either. Instead holding onto God and trusting that we will live happily ever after with Him. I'm really loving this stuff. :D

Mmkay, I think I should get ready to go to Party City with Dad when he and Mom come home. So I guess I'll cut this short. Thanks for reading, I hope my rambling wasn't a complete waste of time, haha!
