Oh yeah... School :/

So... sewing a skirt.  Failed at that one.  I got parts of a practice skirt cut out, and then I went to camp.  My mom was like, you aren't going to finish this.  I was like, YES I WILL!!  I AM going to finish this.  It's okay, camp was way more important and I gained more from that than I would have from sewing a skirt.  Then I didn't take any pictures of camp after staff week, so that's a fail, also.  BUT I did take some pix staff week and in Honduras, that are okay.  I didn't ever get to photo-shopping anything, so it is just the pix I like, not well doctored, fancy pix.  I'm posting some, but they're not supposed to be anything special, just pix I liked, so don't expect them to be special.  Also, there are some from my Carley weekend and Williamsburg with Mom.  Cooking failed completely at home, but when I went to Honduras I helped make home-made lasagna, home-made alfredo sauce, and french toast.  I consider that a small success.  Judge as you see fit.  As for being healthy, it happened at camp.  I was active all the time, and ate a variety of foods and didn't overeat, and I lost a few useless pounds.  Then I went to Honduras and ate a lot more, and was not very active and I gained some useless pounds back :/  Those pounds aren't important either way.

School starts tomorrow, and my goal now is to learn to apply everything that grew in me this summer to my school year life.  So far, I could be doing better, but I haven't given up on myself yet.  Well, I've given up on myself, but that's how I'm going to let God shine.  If I can totally give up on my own strength, God will take the glory in His strength!!  Easier said than done, but that's just what I will do :) Or at least that's what God will do.  And if I'm seeking God then I'm going to learn to sincerely not care if people judge, from whatever drives their opinion.  That might be more difficult - not fighting back and defending myself.  God will make Himself glorified in my life if I let Him, and nothing I could do could defend or prove Him as well as He could.  Okie dokie, here's those pix.

These pix are at the barn, on the roof in Honduras, staff week adventures, hammocks, clouds on the coast, journaling, and the lamp has a bug living in the left nail hole so I took a picture of our roommate (in the bathroom in our room in Honduras).  Good summer :)
