So I haven't written a blog in a while and I am taking a break from my English paper. Procrastinating actually. My mom came home from the hospital on Thursday and is doing very well. We won't get results from everything they removed until next Thursday...she has to go see 3 different doctors that day. Just more waiting.
Ashlie got baptized this morning. Her family and some of her friends came. I'm really curious to see if she continues to come to church. I really hope she does. It's amazing to me how quickly people stop talking when their old friends take them back. The same ones that ditched her in the first place. It's crazy how easily someone can forgive people who treated them like they were nothing and then turn their back on the one who was there when their "best friends" dropped them. I guess I just don't get the thinking that goes on throughout all of this. But it will be ok. I've got other friends. Maybe I don't see them on a daily basis and I don't go to high school with them, but they are my best friends and I know that they will not completely drop me for friends who ditched them. But I wish you the best of luck if your old friends are what make you happy. I'm sorry I wasn't a good enough friend to you. I thought I was. I tried to be.
I stayed with Coco at her dorm Friday night. We went to the Cross Country meet the next morning and watched Brent run. We ate lunch with Lindsay and then went back to her house and looked at all of her wedding stuff. Then Coco's parents took us to find my grandpa's farm near Hico. It turns out it is about 25 minutes away from Tarleton and my grandpa said that Coco and I can live there while we go to school. He isn't going to charge us rent or utilities or anything. The house needs some fixing up but it is big and sits on 170 acres. We will get to help fix it up and we will have our own house! For free! It has 5 bedrooms, a living room, kitchen, and 1 bath. The bathroom even has a claw foot tub! The place is real old and I love it! We are sooooo excited! We won't have to pay for a dorm or a meal plan since we will have a kitchen. This will make college so much cheaper. But it's kinda scary out there and the rooms are big so we are planning on sharing one room. We can have others live with us but we don't know anyone. My grandpa said no boys so it will just be us girls living in an old farm house in the middle of nowhere! Man I'm excited. I was worried about where I should go to school and everything but it seems like God is paving the way and everything is just falling into place. I am so ready to graduate now! It's crazy because until now I have been afraid to graduate and now I am really excited!
So this is what's going on for now. I guess I should get back to my paper...I've procrastinated long enough!

Yeah I was thinking today how God is so faithful to show you (in HIS time) where to go to college, and He is even working out the housing plans for you! I'm so excited for ya'll! I'm sure it will be ok, and you'll probably find other girls to live with you after the first semester or year! John V.'s daughter Vanessa and her family moved to Hico. Anyway!! I'm so happy for ya'll!! But I'm not excited for you to graduate :( I'll miss you!
