It has recently occured to me that I do not wanto be an au pair in Spain for the family I have been talking to. Since making this decision I have felt a great deal of relief. Then came the stress. If I'm not an au pair for this family then who?! So I started rethinking this whole plan. I prayed a lot and talked to anyone who would listen for any advice. I have decided that I must turn down the family and find a new one, one that I can feel 100% certain about. So I have started my search over and opened it up to more countries than just Spain. I am hoping to leave in March and live there (where ever there is) through May. At which time I would travel. This would give me an extra two months to work in Seattle and save money for my trip. I am still very excited about the whole endeavour, but now feeling more relaxed about it.
But I am sick! Working in an elementary school sure makes my immune system work! Unfortunately mine wasn't strong enough to handle all those germie kids. So I have a cold. I have plenty more to talk about, particularly the retreat I went on this past weekend, but I will have to do that later. I need to sleep and hopefully I will wake up in the morning healed!

This is the day... This is the story of my life after college. This is a collection of the tales from my adventures. This is a chronicle of my experiences.
Better Beautiful Than Perfect
I run a little insurrection that moves in the direction that beauty is beauty in spite of perfection
see the crosses at the roadside
see the thorn bush ablaze in bloom
put your feet in the sand, a lukewarm beer in your hand
momma, let down your hair
yes, I´ve chipped a tooth
no need to call home
I don´t have to be anywhere
we can hear the bossa nova
we can sway the night away
the steps to the dance are best left up to chance
better beautiful than perfect, anyway
and while the moon wanes and waxes
death and taxes are lurking out there
Life is grand, Love is real and Beauty is everywhere
And so the clear blue sky
no, she never made a sound
though she was blindfolded, gagged and bound
now see the poppies pushin´ up through the bones on the ground but the body´s never found
can you hear the bossa nova? let us sway the night away...
