A night on THE HILL!

So my mother's birthday was Weds. but we didn't get to celebrate it till tonight. So we ended up going to Zias which is this AMAZING italian resturant down on the hill. If you don't know, The Hill,  is this small community in down town STL filled with Italians. Italian resturants, Italian bakeries, and tons of italian families. I LOVE it there! I would love to live there if it wouldn't require leaving all my friends, my church and one of my jobs behind. So we go to Zias and we had to wait for 45 minutes to get a table but its cool because my mom, my sister , and I were cracking up laughing the whole time. I think it had to do with lack of sleep on my sister's and my part and also the fact that going to Zias is a huge adventure for my family.  We got our seats and our waiter who seemed snooty came over and the got the ball rolling. My favorite workers there were 2 of the busboys because they werent all uppity like our waiter. My dad and my sister ate their weight in bread and i actually didn't do much eating, mostly because i was cracking jokes or trying not to laugh with soda in my mouth ( it ends up showering people and for some INSANE reason, they don't like that so...)  The meal was really good. I suggest the Cavatelli! It is my all time favorite food! The ride home was a little bit more subdued but only because my mom wasn't feeling good and my dad was being a party pooper. Oh plus my dad is a slow driver so it seemed to take FOREVER to get home ( which is what my Facebook status refers to in case you were wondering) which of course became something else my sister and i were giggling about. All in all a pretty successful evening. I will leave out telling you about how i had to wake up at 4:30 AM and Max threw up when we got home. Because they seem to be mood killers lol. I hope to leave you in a mood for a family outing that involves pasta. How did i do? :)

A TV Episode Life

I know, I know! Its been FOREVER since i have posted. I apologize.  Life seems to have a way of going so fast that its hard to even take a deep breath every once in awhile. So i have to tell you some things. I have a new job! Yeah! I'm not really excited though, in fact i have been feeling worried and slightly, or more than slightly if im being completely honest, panicy about it. It is something I have never done before and I don't know what to expect which makes me, a die hard worry wart, nervous. There has been issues along the way too, for example, I found out today ( I start tomorrow) what time I am actually starting, what i am supposed to wear, and that i will be required to work Saturdays and some Sundays. For those of you who don't really know me, finding stuff like this out at the last minute drives me BONKERS!!! My poor friend Rich had to put up with me when I was uber mad about it. And it caused me to fight with my parents. I kept trying to tell myself to just trust God and stop worrying but i wasn't really handing it over. And then about 10 minutes ago while i was in the bathroom ( doesn't the best ideas occur in this room?) I realized that everything would be fine. I almost laughed at myself for getting so caught up in the worry when I should just hand it all over to God and focus on doing my best while knowing that God will take care of the rest of it. Anyways all of this reminded me of an TV episode. You know where there is this HUGE problem and somehow in 30 minutes to a hour everything gets fixed. I was wishing for a TV episode life when all the problems started popping up. But really? I already have one. I know that at the end of every experience God is going to use it for his glory. Hope this helped you look at life a little differently.

Lack of Oxygen~

Sorry i havent been on here in awhile. Life seems to be passing me WAY too quickly. I havent found a new job yet but im working at Jimmy Johns part time so at least im out being productive lol. I dressed up as a construction worker for Halloween and then went over to my second mom's house and played board games with my friend and her boyfriend. Speaking of boys... ;) I met someone! Thats all I am going to say now... I don't wanna jinx it. But I am in a freakishly bad mood right now. My dad is driving me crazy! Don't get me wrong I love him and I normally get a kick out of hanging out with him. But lately it feels like all he does lately is talk about how to 'fix me' or guilt trips me into something. Idk its not important, you will have to forgive me, I am in one of my moods. So how have you been? Do anything interesting for Halloween?
