I'm gonna live where the green grass grows..

I'm horrible at blogging!! I feel like I need to start each post like this because I always skip a day :-/
I was so tired yesterday and just never got around to it! After church and family all day (and then a wild puppy when I got home) I was only ready for B&B. Bath and bed!
I had the best weekend. I've been waiting for it for awhile now! My best friend in the whole universe and her husband and their puppy came over on Saturday (along with some other awesome family members!) to eat crawfish. We of course went on our crawfish tour. There were 7 of us + 2 little doggies on the golf cart aka party bus. We made it to the back where the ponds are and got a stupid flat tire. So we waited for my dad to come to the rescue and then we finished (half way..) our tour. I'm sure it gets old to some people..but this never gets old to me. It's so pretty back there. The water and the trees and the birds. Just so pretty. My friend Becca kept saying "Do you know what this is doing for my soul!?!" Such a Becca thing to say..but it's true. We then ate many pounds of crawfish and drank many strawberry beers and watched the doggies roll around in the one tiny mud puddle there was. I didn't want the day to end! I'm so glad that Becca moved closer..even though we still go too long without seeing each other..it doesn't even matter. Just knowing that she's a car ride away makes it so much better. Easter was also really great. I guess I take it for granted how close my family is..how close we live to each other, and how close we are as a family. I am very thankful for them!
I also thought about writing an Easter post..especially after watching The Bible last night on the History channel. Imean..it's a little cheesy..and I do think it's funny that they cast most of the characters according to which region they were in..but Jesus looked just like Jesus. A white man! I guess that doesn't matter so much. I just think it's funny..but overall it was good. There was a commercial on during the show that said something like "Have you been enjoying the Bible series? Well did you know you can read the bible every day on your iphone if you get this app?" And they showed all of these business type people like getting into cabs and at work reading the bible on their phones. I just thought it was kind of funny. I never made it to my Easter post..I feel like I don't have the adequate words to describe what Jesus and his blood mean to me..I've made so many mistakes in my life..some that are completely horrible and disgusting and that I can't believe that I did. But because of Jesus' blood..I can (and was!) forgiven, and can spend eternity in Heaven with Him. And all of the people I love.
I almost forgot to write about this, but I know that a few people will enjoy it. Ya see, if ya work in New Roads, and most people know your family, they are gonna ask you a billion questions. Like "Ohh, do you live in that trailer in Oscar where Charlie and his wife used to live??" Yes, everyone knows this. It's sort of comforting, but also scary at the same time. I like that everyone knows me and my family..well I have this one patient. He's from Chicago..He and his wife have been to therapy before, and they just love me. And I think they're crazy. And hilarious. They live less than a mile away from me, and me being the dumbo that I am, I told them where I live (what's wrong with me!???)  (I'm trying to get less personal with patients that creep me out..). (Another funny thing, is that they add the phrase "and that" to the end of every sentence: "OOh I went to the winn dixie and that, and I got some milk and that.." Make sure you read it in a Chicago accent so you'll understand..). Okay, enough parentheses. So today I got home from work and when I was walking in the door, this truck was passing by and they layed on the horn (95% of the people that pass by my house do this..not sure if it's for me or Charlie ha!)..I walked in and got the puppy to bring her outside and looked up and of course the truck is barreling down my driveway with my crazy patient hanging out the window and busting out laughing because he's obsessed with dogs. He leaped out of his truck, along with his son, and ran and picked her up and took 567 pictures with his phone and played with her until finally his son said "Come on dude, we got to get to Port Allen and that". I was so creeped out that they were in my yard and also embarrassed because I'm sure every person that passed by saw what was happening and by now there's a rumor about me going around in New Roads. Thank god the man's son was with him because I might have called my dad to come over if it was just him..
Sooo yeah. That happened. And now I'm about to go for a run!
Hopefully this really long post made up for yesterday and that! Serious and a funny story all in one.
