The reason I am up and blogging this early is because I got up for my practicum this morning. My car died Friday, so thanks to my sweet fiance, I needed to get up earlier than usual in order to obtain Matt&#8217;s car. Matt got up on his day off at [what I&#8217;m guessing was] about 7:30am and drove his car out to my apt with plans for me to drop him back off at his house. After getting up at 7:15am myself, I popped into the sower. Man, I had such a desire to be irresponsible, sleep until 7:30 and then rush to get ready. But I figured I&#8217;d be late and only end up making Matt, who was doing me a favor, wait on me. After getting ready fairly quickly for 7 in the morning, I must say, I did some responsible things like pay bills and gather my things before &#8220;last minute&#8221;. Matt showed up [sleepy thing] and drove me back to his house. We spoke of ligistics and said our goodbyes. Heading down the road toward my practicum, I thought about calling Carol back. I noticed my phone said I had a message. I listened and heard these words from Matt;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Your practicum&#8217;s canceled. CHOICES is closed. Dad told me. So I hope you don&#8217;t get there and then get this message.&#8221; [It&#8217;s about a 30 minute drive].<\/p>\n<p>So, despite the fact that I&#8217;d love to complain and complain about how early and how annoying and&#8230; and .. and&#8230; instead let&#8217;s look at the bright side. I get an unexpected morning off, I got my bills paid, and it&#8217;s 9am and I&#8217;m already up and dressed for the day. Whew baby!!!!<\/p>\n<p>So, I&#8217;m going to continue this overly productive day and work on my project for my independent study class. And who knows&#8230; I may even get to finish it. I&#8217;m also looking forward to updating my budget, cleaning my room and trading in my guitar today.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you, God, for the blessing of an unexpected day off.<br \/>I love You. I love You. I love You!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>G&#8217;morning all. The reason I am up and blogging this early is because I got up for my practicum this morning.
