So this past week I have been thinking. Comparing different situations and actions actions in my life to a fire alarm. Why? You might ask, well you see the battery in one of our fire alarms is going low and so it makes a beep every ten minutes.
This leads me to reflect on everything in terms of alarms. The steady annoyingly simple beep is just letting us know that although nothing is wrong if we do not take action soon something could go very wrong. *To be honest in my time living in Logan there have been three occasions that I have been happy that fire alarms exist and are installed in my house*
One of the other noises that a fire alarm gives off is complete silence. Quietly letting everyone within earshot know that everything is ok. The last is the ear defining noise that can be heard if their is smoke in the air around the alarm.
For most of my life I have lived in one of the two extremes, either I have felt that there is no danger or that something is so off that immediate action must be taken. Right now, for about the last 6 to 9 months I have felt something is slightly off. Not so much that I am in danger but more of just one thing must be fixed and once it is everything will be all right. Now I just need to figure out what it is that needs to be fixed and be done with it.
Oh and also I need to remember to buy a 9V battery so that the real fire alarm will stop beeping.
Favorite Quotation
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
...Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." -Marianne Williamson

No good dirty rotten.....
So Tuesday and "today" (Early Thursday Morning) I have not felt good at all. I am laying here in bed and do not want to move for any reason. On Tuesday I only got out of bed for two reasons, food and bathroom. Other than that I sat on the couch or laid in bed and did nothing.
I really don't like it but I did feel good enough on Wednesday to go into work and go down to the Bells and practice. It was a good practice, I play a position that I had not played this year it was hard and refreshing to do. Today I will go to class, and then come home and crash until I need to go to work tonight.
------
Now I am in class, I kinda wish that I didn't come. I am glad that the teacher encourages people to ask questions but this means that we get WAY off topic and nothing that is currently being talked about will be on the test. The worst is the snow ball effect that one question at the beginning of class that is talked about during each section of the lesson. It makes the lesson feel like it is dragging to me as we stop learning about the course content.
Anyway about the title of the post, I feel like this situation I am in is a no good dirty rotten thing. The next couple of weeks my activities will include finding another doctor to get a second option, finding a storage unit so I can start packing my extra stuff so that the first weeks of May, and finishing the school year while getting good grades. If I can get all this done before (finding doctor/storage unit) before the middle of April I will be in good shape.

Spring Break!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well my Friday classes were canceled so today I started Spring Break. So I will have a day of doing nothing before going to California with my family.
Finally getting a break.
On a side note have Blood work done this week and my tests came back normal even though I have been having the same kinds of issues. Well I am not going to worry about it until I get back.
