I really don't like telling people I'm busy. I feel dumb when I do it. Like I don't have time for them or anything other than what I'm "busy" with. And it's not true. Well, sometimes I may not have the time to blog or email and IM people and stuff, but that doesn't make it unimportant. I really, really like blogging and talking to friends, so being busy is hard for me. I guess I'll move on with my apology and stop rambling now.
So for anyone who still wanders by here, I am still going to write on this blog and I do not mean to ignore anybody. I have been pretty busy so far this summer (see? doesn't that sound lame?) but I still want to keep in touch with other bloggers. I will try to help my case by giving you a bit of an insight as to what I've been doing.
Driver's Ed. is probably the biggest thing that's causing me to have time-management problems. I wanted to get signed up this year so I could have my license by the time I'm sixteen and be able to babysit for my family members with small children. So mom got me signed up. I was due to start the day after we got back from camping, and yes, I was nervous. The first night of that was weird. Not bad, but weird. I have to go to a public school for classes...and that took some getting used to. Now it's not a big deal, I go, I keep to myself (while being polite to the other kids) and then I leave. End of classroom experience. I'll be done with that soon, which will be nice. I don't really favor getting up at 5:00am for drive classes.
Also just some family stuff. Helping with chores, weddings, friends. All that good stuff. And this summer I'm trying to get in the habit of running everyday. Today I got my little brother to go with me, that was nice. :) Anyway, I do plan on writing more. I'm sure it will be easier when Driver's Ed. is over. I'm trying really hard to learn everything I can in this class.
It would also be wonderful if people would pray for me right now. I had high hopes of getting closer to the Lord this year, but that hasn't been the case. I find myself having time to do everything else, but when it comes to God I say "oh, I need to study my driver's manual. I'll study my Bible later." and I know that is not the right thing. I really can't have it this way, and I'm working on it, but all prayers are greatly appreciated. Thank you.
