Tears of Joy

So, it's just another bad morning.... One of those kind of days. My hair looks like a tornado and I'm still in my pajamas. I somehow managed to get out of bed at like, 10:30, which is acceptable for a homeschooler. It's not like I missed school or anything but, at the same time, the day is half over and this has been a repeating trend for the past couple of weeks.
I wish so badly I could adjust to a normal sleeping schedule. I should probably set an alarm...but, ever since the weather started changing, I've felt sick and in need of sleep. 
Super ironic since I can't seem to sleep until like 1 AM. 
Needless to say, I have a love-hate relationship with this weather change. 
I fully embrace the scented candles, countless cups of tea,  fall decorations and excuses to wear sweaters. But...I'm not so fond of the sickness and change in sleep schedule.
So now, here I'm sitting, smiling because of how bad of a week I've had (I know, that makes no sense. It's just how I operate) with a cup of peach green tea, trying to churn out a post that isn't incredibly boring.
Now, there is one thing that made me feel wonderful this week. 
It was the best thing ever. 
I'll keep the name of the individual out. 
But, I will say this. 
Their act of true selflessness, encouragement, love and care, was the most genuine, inspirational thing I'd seen in quite awhile.
They reached out to me when I most needed it.
I don't want to keep you in the dark, and depending on who you are, I might tell you one day. XD But, the point of the post was this.
Someone very dear to me, knew something was wrong, and when I told them what it was, their response was beautiful. 
It made me so, so happy.
I truly cannot wait for Wednesday when I get to see this person again.
And probably even tell them they brought me tears of joy.

Art Show

Well, I'm a bit late posting about this art show that took place at my church this past Friday, but I thought it was worth posting about. My younger sister and mom both had submitted pieces into this art show, so my dad dropped them off at the church a few hours later and came home. While he was gone, I took the liberty of making a Facebook live-stream consisting of the typical Kiah- flailing around and calling it dancing. Anyway, after that, we ate dinner and then headed over to the church.  There were a lot of older people at the show and some families.  I ran into an old friend and hung out with her for awhile and a couple other people I'd heard of but never officially met until that day. It was overall a calming experience.  The funny thing is, when I'd first walked in, I looked over and saw tables covered with various desserts and was like, "OH MY GERSHH THERE'S SO MUCH!!!" So, naturally, I ate a lot of dessert, but that's okay. We'll just c...

Grace warriors Retreat 2016

Image
I had the amazing privilege of going on a two day trip up in the mountains with 18 other girls and our amazing leaders.  I could honestly write about this trip for ages, so instead of not sparing a detail, I'm just going to explain what I gathered from it spiritually.  Going on this trip was definitely memorable and full of laughs, just like anything I go to involving other people.  However, even extroverts get overwhelmed sometimes. I couldn't have been happier but, I needed some alone time after we'd gotten to the gorgeous house which was to be ours for the weekend.  My sleep wasn't the most comfortable one. My sinuses weren't the best. So, the next morning, I got to spend some time with my Jesus as the sun was rising.  This was a trip where I was expecting to gather a lot from socializing with others, and though I had some time to get in some great fellowship, the most refreshing part was getting away from it all.  My inner introvert was showi...

Brief update - November

Image
Even right now, as I'm writing this, I'm stressed out. But, since I haven't made a single post this week, I decided you guys deserve a quick update from me. So, let's go into what I've been doing the last week of October and this lovely beginning of November. Of course I've had church every Sunday, Grace Warriors every Sunday Night, youth group every Wednesday night and school and chores in between. In addition, we had a wonderful time at the church fall festival, full of food, fun, face painting, helium (long story) and lots and lots of candy . Here's a picture of all the candy I confiscated. I still have a ton left, even after sharing with friends and eating some myself!!! This doesn't even picture what each of my siblings retrieved XD In addition to this, me and my youth group went on an outreach on Wednesday night, which was more fun than I'd had in a long time, despite my sickness...Which I'm pretty sure was allergies. The sudden drop...
