Thoughts from Forest Gump

Forrest Gump always seemed to think out loud, like a lot of us do. Here are some thoughts from Forest:
Forrest: Stupid is as stupid does.

Lt Dan: I'm testing out my sea legs. Forrest: But Lt Dan you aint got no legs.

Forrest: They said it was a million dollar wound. The government must have kept the money since I never saw any of it.

Man running alongside Forrest running: Why are you running? Forrest: I just felt like running.

Man: Whoa, you just ran through a big pile of dog s***! Forrest: It happens. Man: S***?
Forrest: Sometimes

Forrest: Momma said dying was a part of livin but I wish it wasnt.

Forrest: I'm not a smart man, Jenny, but I know what love is. (That
's my dad's favorite)

Hope everyone is having a good week.

Our sweet Valentines ride

A candlelight dinner prepared by Trevor Taylor

Happy Valentines' Day!

I am still up and I should be in bed but I gotta pack since I am flying to Oklahoma for a few days! I will not only get to spend time with my honey but his brother, sis-in-law and their cute kids. I'm excited but I need to go to bed soon. Here's to actually having a Valentines date. Single Awareness Day.
I am trying to think of a list for Valentines Day, hmm. How about top five (since I need to go soon) romantic/anti-Valentines movies. Take your pick which.
Mine (in no particular order):
1) Moulin Rouge
2) Garden State
3) Ten Things I Hate About You (watched it tonight)
4) 50 First Dates
5) Princess Bride
oh and somewhere in there is Eternal Sunshine and the Spotless Mind
Pick your faves, Dave, give me some good anti-romantic ones too(;

Once Upon a Friday Morning

Well its been an interesting week with work and surgery. Work was busy but ok. I had some issues with co-workers ( well one in particular) but learned a lot about myself. I need to be more confident because I have the most important One on my side. Even when others don't want to do their job and therefore make mine more difficult, I can't let that make me feel like a bad nurse. I got the highest compliment last night when I worked---from a patient. She wanted to tell my supervisor that I was a good nurse. And to tell you the truth, I couldn't do a lot for her, I just did all I could, even when I grew frustrated that I could nothing for her pain.
On a different topic, I decided to participate in Lent because I need to focus on what the Lord has done for me. I need to be thankful and look expectantly to the future, knowing God will do great things in me and through me. I watched The Passion of the Christ for a point to look forward to when I want the thing I am fasting from. He faced opposition just as I do today, but so much more. I do not worship a Christ who does not sympathsize with my weaknesses. He knows them all too well and conquered them. I pray God will ease all the silly worries I have as I look expectantly to the Christ who suffered, died, and conquered death for me.

All done

The surgery went well. It didnt take long at all and so far I have little pain. So that's about all I have for now. I gotta get out a while or I am gonna go nuts.

Girls' night out at the Murphy's

A fun week...

Just to recap my (nice) week. Monday off, Tuesday I worked, Wednesday off, Thursday off, Friday off, Saturday night I worked. Nice week, huh? I had lunch with Lori Todd Wednesday at Le Madelaine and met with the surgeon. Thursday I had bible study. Friday Jessica and I went to see Beyond the Gates of Splendor, great movie, you should go see it! Friday I also attended the Girls' Night Out. Too much fire though and now I can't breathe! Oh and my dad and brother Marcus came to hang out with me today and yesterday. Fun times were had by all.

Groundhog's Day, Gosh!

I realized a while back that today is ......Groundhog's Day. Did the Groundhog see his shadow, let me see.... Go here to find out for yourself. Hmmm....maybe that's why Dave watched Lost in Translation yesterday? Check out the mp3, since I am not smart enough to figure out how to paste cool stuff like that.

Good news...

Well......good news...

Good news. I met with the surgeon today for an indiscretion on a part some of you know about (if you don't know already, then I guess you won't know). Dr. Ricardo says its "easy" and she will remove it Monday in her office. That's a relief. And will likely cost under 200 dollars. If you want more details then contact me. I would post pics but uh I think that would be inappropriate. Just something tells me that(;

A Gotta See Movie

I saw Finding Neverland yesterday which was an excellent movie about innocence and the power of the imagination. The movie that is the gotta see movie, though, is Beyond the Gates of Splendor. I saw this movie in the Fall of 2003 and was very impressed with the production. Its a documentary of the five missionaries who went into the jungles of Equador. This movie has a powerful message of forgiveness and redemption. I would recommend that every Christian go see this movie for a very touching experience
