My life exactly how it should be told. In an extremely sarcastic sense of humor by the one and only me.

how lucky am i?
i have only had the most, i don't even know what it is, day ever. it started out with me, obviously. i slept through my alarm, which is pretty much near to impossible since the volume on the alarm is only like 8 quatrillion times louder than the loudest alarm in the state. so i didn't get up till 10:00ish. then i went to my church's garage sale. i pretty much just held whatever my mom told me to hold and/or threw at me. i saw one of my youth ministers, and he used to work at kanakuk, and was so stoked that i was back just so he could talk to me about it. no one from around here goes to kamp because they all go to camp tekawitha (techawita, teckawithha???), LAME-O! anyway, he came back after working at kanakuk and made this camp teckawitha thing, but it is so not as good as kanakuk. anyway, then i went home, joy. and i had a lovely nap, joy. then i got up, put on my black dress that i really hate, and my black shoes i really like, and drove to gardner, which is in kansas. i went to my great grandpa's funeral. i knew that he was back in the hospital before i left for kamp. my dad kept me updated and on the thursday before i went home, my dad told me how awesome he was doing. he was doing really well up until he died on friday. it really wasn't real for me until i went to the funeral today. as much as i'm going to miss him, i'm really happy that he gets to be back in heaven with my great grandma. he really was one of kind. he was 97 years 11 months and 9 days old when he passed. he loved his wife and treated her like every man should treat his wife. to him, my great grandma was the greatest gift God could have ever given him, and he let her know that every day. he was really committed to Christ, and loved Him with a passion. i know for sure that he is in heaven. when i was at kamp my counselors told me, God wouldn't take him until i was ready. although i might not have thought so, i know now that i am ready, and have learned a lot from the life of my great-grandpa. i cant even express how thankful i am that God blessed me with my great-grandpa for all these 15 years of my life. how lucky am i? really, really lucky!
