Here I am Alive at Last

this blog is beyond the obvious, created Kaylee style for an audience that gets her (which might just be me.)


The phone rang back in March-

I answered the phone, "Hello?"
"Listen, I said maybe (I said maybe) you're gunna be the one that saves me (saves me)"

I hung up perplexed.

The phone rang again in June-

I answered the phone, "Hello?"
"Say What?"

"What can I do for you?" I asked.

"I gotta a ticket come ride with me. Your love is like a roller coaster baby, baby. I wanna ride."

Still confused I dismissed the call.

Again the phone rang in September-

I answered in a disgruntled tone, "Hello?"

"We were meant to live for so much more! Have we lost ourselves?"

I began to wonder myself, stubbornly.

...today the phone rang...

"I wanna sleep with you in the desert tonight. With a million stars all around 'cause I gotta peaceful easy feelin."

I thought to myself for a minute before answering, before hanging up.

"I know that you won't let me down 'cause I'm already standing on the ground. I get this feelin' I may know you, as a lover and a friend. This voice keeps whispering in my other ear tells me I may never see you again."

Right then and there I decided I couldn't let that happen, never see you again, never hear the phone ring again, so I slept in the desert, under the stars, eyes wide, looking into a future that looking back might have never existed. I couldn't deny any longer the tune my heart beat was playing.

I'm in love and it's pretty cool.

George, he might be king of the jungle but he's a pretty laid back dude.

Man. Eight hours later I still have lots of work to do on my Marketing project but it's been pretty fun actually. It might sound morbid but I'm doing a Marketing Plan on a motorcycle hearse company. The research aspect has been pretty cool actually and I just wrote a press release for something and someone that doesn't even exist. In a weird way it's like I'm prepping to actually be able to create this company one day, which just so everyone knows, I've located in York, PA.

Anyway, I don't know where the big change came from today in comparison to yesterday. Who would've thought after being woken up at 8 a.m. to take care of a sick Bear, not really a bear, but Josh my mood would 180 from yesterday? Sometimes it's just so frustrating, ugh. I decided not to go to my regular church today. I don't really know why since this is my last Sunday in Indiana, but I decided to go to PB with Booker. I don't know much about the Catholic religion but sometimes something different is nice. It's been noticeable to me lately that Salem just hasn't been doing it for me so PB was a nice change of pace (plus afterward Booker's dad got us breakfast, mmm hmm!)

Soon as we got back I had difficulty finding my keys (procrastinating) but headed to the school to put some quality time into my project. I got some reading done first in the wellness center while biking, but then it was down to business, 8 hours of it, whew.

Blah de blah de blah.
So the REAL point of this blog is that I had a good day through and through, literally- it's about time.

Love the life you live and live the life you love.

A Blessing!

Since Tuesday morning I've been "under the weather" and can't seem to get level. I'm sitting here thinking about how much stuff I need to get done before I leave but the harder I think the less likely I am to accomplish anything because my body gets all dizzy mcdizzerson.

Today I just wanted to mention something about my friend Andi and her husband Tyler. I met them in Texas about two years ago. I've never seen a couple that shares more love for each other than these two individuals. The thing that's really pinpointed their relationship lately is the little baby girl they will be having together. For those of you that don't know my story from Texas, Andi was a major help to me. She was there every step of the way and helped me find all the resources I needed and now to hear the news of a little Leavitt baby coming into this world I am over joyed.

Thanks be to God- what a great blessing Andi was to me in my time of need and what a great mother she will be as her time comes in July.

January 2010

Welp- it's already begun. What's next for me? I am finalizing plans for an apartment in York from a far these days. I'll be moving out there in somewhere around 3 weeks. I start working for the Revs again Feb. 1 this time with the potential of some Marketing work too- oh I'd love that!

It will be so nice to get back out to what's been the closest thing to home since I graduated in 07. I'll have my church family back- I CAN'T wait for that. I miss my conversations with Megan and just hanging out with the whole crew anddd I can't wait to see Jess, Linds, Kara, Kristin, Crisbo and Phelica. I'm pumped to get back at the gym, get right, play soccer, and smile.

I've set myself up for another possible part time job..with sports clubs- we'll see where that goes. It will be nice to have a little wiggle room with my funds and to have my "own" room again.

More recently it was so nice seeing Mike and introducing him to some very important people. We had so much fun and so many good moments together while he was here. I miss him already and it's been hmmm four days- but we'll be closer again soon which will be nice. I've already made the committment to cook his roommates and him dinner once a month, whew. He met Booker, Bear, Gina, Becky, Los, Mikey, Jay, Andrew, and some people from work. Oh and Bailey- Jay's dog absolutley loves him, you should've seen them together it was so cute.

The end is almost here for my run as Sports Information Director and I hope I'll be able to prepare Antoine to take over so my boss doesn't have as much of a work load. I can't wait to get that fresh breath of air away from here. I feel like this move will be a little more permenant than my usual pick up and go, but time will tell. Teaching next year?? Coaching (even better)??

The Lord is such a provider regardless of the reasoning for the people he has most recently placed in my life. In the last week and a half my heart hasn't felt nearly as heavy and I am starting to truly enjoy my life again. I am a very wishbone lucky lady.

p.s. Jess better appreciate this post and it's dedication to her, haha.
See you all soon!
