So... like the post before I had my skiing accident (during which I tore my ACL and got a neon yellow knee brace), I told you that I had a Summer 2013 Bucket List. Right? Well, I'm not sure if you noticed, but it's going to be kind of hard to complete everything on that little list because of my knee brace. I mean, I can still do some, but not all.

So you know what this means? I need a new bucket list!! *score* #lovingbucketlists #toomuchfun

OK....... so...... let's get started. :)

Summer 2013 Bucket List {revised}

1. Try to write every single day.

2. Finish the fifth Unusuals.

3. Get a Dropbox account. {will explain in future post}

4. Become more like God each day.

5. Get up every day (except if I'm sick, stayed up late because of something really important, etc.) at six.

6. Spend a night in the cabin.

7. Play volleyball practically every day. {without jumping, of course}

8. Read 25 books. {at least}

9. Get the right design for Dragonmaster. {one in mind...}

10. Live life the way God wants me to, with no regrets.

Well... let's just say that wasn't quite as impressive as my last one. =D

Anyway, I have several "life updates" to tell you about. :)

First off... our dog had puppies again!!! Yay!!! :) They are the most adorable dogs EVAH. ;) I believe she had them on Wednesday. There's four in all. They're a bichon frieze shitzu Yorkie cross. They're soooooooo cute. :) I might post pictures of them when they're a little older. :) (If you want, of course..... ;)) We haven't picked names yet, but two we're considering are Mia and Bunny. (any ideas??)

Also... starting next Wednesday (I believe), I'm going to be volunteering at my local library!!! :) How exciting is that?! Gah, I love my library and the librarians there. :) Everyone's just so nice. :) And we have awesome books. :) It's going to be really awesome. :)

Also... other then getting published in the magazine, starting this next week, I'm going to start submitting Rubberboot Girl to some publishers. (I have to admit the Unusuals, so don't worry about that. Like... I didn't even know the different names [Brooklyn, Bronx, Manhatten, Queens] of New York. I said like "poor part" [Bronx] and "nice part" [Brooklyn]. So... yeah... I have to go and edit that.. :D)

I'll talk to ya'll later. ;)

Over and out.

Prayer Requests

Here we all are on blogger. And here's a great opportunity for prayer. If you have something you'd like me and others to be praying for, please contact me by leaving a comment. And please let's be serious.

Please pray for this girl that Maddie May knows that lives in Spain that almost committed suicide because of extreme bullying. She is not a Christian and needs all the prayer that she can get. If you pray for anything, please pray for this girl.

Please pray for Poem Girl.

Please pray that my knee will be fine and that I don't need surgery. And that I will be faithful with my therapy.

Please pray for a family member of Sarah Elizabeth who lost her unborn baby at 15 weeks; for comfort and blessings from God.

Please pray for Becca, that God will grow her and show her His way.

Please be praying for Piper, who had a raptured appendix and an abscess on her liver. She had to have surgery, and has gotten through OK. Just pray for recovery.

Please pray for Aimeebob to grow closer to Christ every day in her walk with Him.

Please pray for Sarah V.'s dad and for her to be more patient with her younger siblings.

Please pray for my dad, who has been diagnosed with cancer.

Please pray for everybody in the way of tornadoes across the United States, especially for Flower Murray and her neighbors.

Your summer seems like it's going to be way more interesting then mine... My summer is going to be filled with 4-H stress, reading, wishing I had a job but for some reason nobody hires someone my age anymore, and then boredom when 4-H is over. :/ yup. Maybe I should make one of these summer bucket list thingys.
