Oh, and we found out by Lou bringing him to another vet that he is NOT 18 months old! He is at least FOUR years old. Yeah, BIG difference, but that does NOT make me change my mind. I have no problem at all adopting an older dog. (PLUS he is SO well trained and mellow!) So that is new, haha.
pictures!
I am just now realizing some things thats going to happen. I now that I will be graduating in May 2011. I know that is still a year away, but it is starting to make me a little scared. I know that the closer that time gets, the scarier it is going to be. This will be the time to look for my career job, and move to where ever I can get this good job. But I am scared to death that the only job I will be able to find will end up being far from my loved ones. I want to stay in Denton horribly, or at least around this area. I have too many friends that I love. (Especially my signifigant other that I could NOT live without being near him) I know things will work out the way God has planned. God has done some amazing things in my life and has answered every prayer I give him. I could not ask for better than what I have right now in my life. I know God will take control and show me what I need to do, but I will always be afraid of what that is. It is hard not to be scared. But that is life.
Thank you God for
-My amazing family that will give anything to help me in life. From the furniture that my grandparents are giving me, to the money and time my parents give me for me to have my chance at living in an apartment of my own. My aunt who, even though is going through extremely hard times still thinks of me and is soo caring and always wants to know what is going on in my life.
-To my fantastic boyfriend whom words cannot express how much I love him and he means to me. My biggest prayers came true with him being in my life. I KNOW God wanted us together, the prayers in high school, and the ones before we met up again in Oct 2009. I prayed that God would bring me to the man I should be with, and he did and I am so grateful and will always praise God for him. He treats me amazingly and I have never known such love and patience and devotion. His love is EXACTLY like this verse, 1 Corinthians 13:4-7. He is amazing.
-My friends. Emiko is my best friend, and is the only person in the world that can completely understand me, and knows exactly when to agree with me and disagree with me. She also has amazing patience with me (goodness knows she needs it!) She will NEVER give up on me, and I will never give up on her. All of my other friends are amazing to me, and I love each and every one of them. Davids fraternity brothers are very special to me, everyone of them are so special and have great personalities and I just love so much to be apart of their lives as well. Everyone I have met at UNT are wonderful and are making my college experience unforgetable.
-My health. My health has still been having a lot of issues lately, but I praise God for keeping me healthy enough to still get through life and have fun. I have not had a Lupus attack in about a couple years, and although I am scared everyday of the possibility of being sick again, I know that God will watch over me no matter what.
-Graduation planned. I have been so afriad since I started college about what I should really be doing, when I would graduate and what I really want to do with my life. I want more than anything to start a family once I graduate, but I cannot count on that, so I will have a Bachelors degree in Linguistics and will hopfully get me ready to find a good job and be ready to buy a house and start a family. I prayed so much to understand what I need to do, and I am so happy I changed from Language Arts (teacher) to linguistics. Thank you Lord.
-My own place. I am extremely excited to live compeltely on my own. I will not lie though, I am soo afraid. Mostly just afraid about my safety. I know I have nothing to worry about (most likely), but I am a female, and I will always be afraid of things like that. But I get the chance to make my own choices with this place, no one to tell me what to do, when to do it, how to decorate. It is all MINE. It is an amazing feeling, and everyone should experience it once in their life before getting married. I won't lie, I am sad not being able to move in with David (I have faith that we COULD make it work), but it is still early in our relationship and I will do whatever it takes to make our relationship work. Which isn't much, we work soo well together as a couple.
-The chance to adopt a great dog. People may think I am crazy for wanting a dog SO bad that it means this much to me. But people don't understand how much animals mean to me. They are just like family and have feelings and need love. God mentions animals so much in the bible and they will be in the new Jerusalem. I have been on the search for the perfect dog for my lifestyle, so that I will not be alone when I am home, and someone that makes me feel safe. I first saw Jethro at PetSmart meet and greet with the Texas Great Pyrenees Rescue, read up on the breed, and realized this is the dog for me. And since then I have been going through the adoption process, and will be taking him home on May 1st. I am so blessed and feel so connected, he is the dog for me and I will give him lots of love.
-I am thankful for is my very stable job at PetSmart, I will have it until I find my career. It makes me feel secure with money.
I just felt like sharing these feelings. It is soo important to show they ways God is working in your life and I am so happy to do just that.
