An Update on the Random

February 1st was a long time ago.

I was actually having a conversation with one of my friends the other night about how my blog has been dead for a while now. She told me that when she clicks on my page under her "My Blogs" list, it acts as if my blog does not even exist anymore!

Conclusion: I go through phases. What's new? Ha! That and the fact that I'm not a big "blog about my day-to-day" kinda blogger.

So here's to stirring up my dormant blog and trying to talk about the random and mundane in my life.

Let's see...I haven't done really done any sort of exercise in way, way too long. Probably since around the beginning of February (Besides the daily pull-ups and negatives at my brother's house...one time I did four in a row!!). I'm telling you -- phases.

Um, I'm working at Green Bank now. Love it. I love the ladies that I work with, and we have some good times which always help to cancel out the times when people get a lil crazy about their money. Trust me, you'd be surprised.

I still go to and volunteer at Cross Point. I really do ABSOLUTELY LOVE it! I have met and gotten to really know some truly AMAZING people. Definitely a huge blessing in my life.

Oh, which reminds me...I'm going on a mission trip to the Dominican Republic July 12th - 19th with CP. I'm VERY, VERY EXCITED to be able to go down there and serve and get more connected with and involved in the heart of CP. I'm way behind on my fundraising!! I only have...crap!!!!...I only have one more week to raise my money! AHHHH. That being said, give me holler if you would like to support me and our team!! Is that bad to put on here? Definitely wasn't planned. Regardless, I'm being for real. If your interested in helping to make an impact on the lives of others, let me know. (I'm not trying to sound cheesy, it is for real the truth!) You can shoot me an email to lilcook3303@aol.com or cooka@greenbankusa.com.

What else? Ah, music! Gosh, I love music. Here's how it works with me: I get some new music and I WEAR. IT. OUT. Currently, my constant tunes -- Adele, 21. She's absolutely brilliant. It just never gets old!! Other recent musical obsessions: 1) Sara Bareilles, Kaleidoscope 2) Mumford and Sons, Sigh No More 3) The Civil Wars, Barton Hollow 4) a Classic Rock mix cd 5) Pink, Greatest Hits (don't judge!). My next venture will probably be the new Foo Fighters album. I'm not gonna lie, I haven't listened to too much of their stuff. Not because I'm against them, but those who influenced my musical taste in the early years didn't have a very broad musical repertoire, ha. But I've heard it's pretty flippin awesome, so...yea.

I'm currently reading The Pelican Brief. I just finished The Firm and loved it. Thank you, John Grisham.

I mean, I think that's about it. Oh, except that I'm going to be an aunt to a baby girl in September. That's not really new news, but what is new is the fact that her name is going to be Kinslea Rose :) Isn't that presh?!!! I can't wait!!

Maybe next time I won't go for forty-five years without posting anything. We'll see.
