Charlie Horse, Clouds, and Clay

I prayed the other night night that I would wake up in a more timely fashion the next morning.  You know, wake up before the alarm, or only push the snooze once.  Nothing too extreme just a “Get the day started off on the right foot,” rather than the-- “RINSE. PANTS. TEETH.  SHIRT.  UNDERWEAR!?  OHYEAH. THAT.  THEN PANTS.  THEN SHIRT.” Thing I do before heading out the--“SHOES!?  KEYS!?  AGHK!” door. 

I vaguely recall being a little bit awake and wondering if I should get out of bed, go on a run, read my scriptures--my alarm went off and I lazily reached over and pushed “Snooze” just once can’t hurt, right?  And then boom.  Charlie Horse. I zipped out of bed, and jumped over the mess of blankets lying on the floor.  “Ah!  Ah! Ah!”  7:03. God answered my prayer. I was up before the second snooze.  I’m not sure if I’m grateful or angry yet.  But I’m pretty sure He has a sense of humor.  Because, well….Rude. 

I just really wanted to tell that story.  It doesn’t have any particular application to this post, and I actually don’t know what I’m going to write this post about. A large part of the reason I’m writing this is that last time I Skyped my family my dad turned to me at the very end and said “You know your rambles thing?” and I distantly thought…which one?  I ramble all the time.  What did I ramble about this time? Was it a special ramble? My Skype face showed my obvious confusion. “You know.  Your rambles.  Meggers, something.” 

                  “Oh!  Yeah!  The Rambles of Meggers?  My blog.”

                  “That.  You haven’t written in it in a long time.  You should update it.”


                  “….Okay. I will!”  So I did.  And this is it.

One of my summer adventures.  We hiked to a beach.  It had jellyfish.  But it also had clay!  

I also liked the clouds.
