I love Colorado for so many reasons! The leaves. Some of my favorite people. And the beauty that lies with the mountains.
It was so good to go visit. And of course it went way too fast and I brought a cold back with me since I did not sleep much :) Luckily just a few days after getting back (lots of Vitamin C and Sleep) I was good to go.
Highlights of the trip:
Real Einsteins Bagels (oh man the smell and the awesome freshness that is Einsteins is not the same at the one at Baylor).
Friends! Friends who know a lot about you and know that you are upset even when you insist that you are not (which may lead to tears but also to being able to talk about things). Oh how I miss this. So good for my heart.
Massages and Shopping with my best friend. Nothing is better. I love our tradition that we have started. So nice to relax and to have someone to go shopping with. I am pretty sure she picked out most if not all of what I bought (all of which I needed but fun none the less).
Making new memories. Great memories. Waking up at 1am and Lynda is still up watching the movie but I thought surely everyone is asleep so I went to turn down/off the movie (mind you this is in the climax). I then began to climb over where she is laying (she says hi to me but I am so out of it I do not hear). I then turn the tv down to nothing and she is like, "hey I am still watching that"! bahahah...who knew. Then while we were shopping I went to a store that I have yet to find in Waco because I usually find things that I like there. By this time I am dehydrated from the message and just cant find anything. So disappointed. Then the saving grace (ha!) Lynda found me something. Quote: "Oh thank God, finally."
Some things that I learned. CCU no longer feels like home when you drive up to campus. Just a place that holds many memories with many people. This is good. Closure really. Everyone has their new life and going back there would be awesome to be so close but I would fit into the puzzle of their lives differently then I did before which is just a product of time. But oh what a thankful heart I have that Jesus allowed me to go.
