Happy Hump Day from Nantes!

Things are looking up. Although my life is a scattered, messy, roller-coaster-esque ride, I'm trying to enjoy it for what it is. Time to take advantage of this simple living here in France, for upon my return to the states, it will be work work work. Although I hate (and I mean really hate) being uncertain about my future, I am trusting in God and having faith that no matter what I do on a daily basis, it is what is meant to be. I know it sounds cliché, but we really never know how things will work out; we can only hope that they work out for the better, and enjoy our lives for what they are in the meantime. God's plan is already set out, we are just here to carry it out. All I can do is offer myself up as an instrument through which He works, you know? It will all be good. I am NOT about to give up. 

In other news, I realized that all I really want in my house when I'm older is a good bed. My bed at my host family's apartment is no good. Being 6 feet tall, a tiny (smaller than a twin) bed does not work out so well. And bed is so very important and cherished for me. I sleep about 9 or 10 hours a night, and if I could spend all day in bed, I would. It is a slice of heaven, in my opinion. So, this Wednesday's Want is...a big, cozy, lived-in bed. If you've seen The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (great flick), there is a line that says "...we lived on that mattress." I want that. I adore bed.

"...we lived on that mattress." 

Until next time,

I'll be resting in bed,
