For I fully expect and hope that I will never be ashamed, but that I will continue to be bold for Christ, as I have been in the past. And I trust that my life will bring honor to Christ, whether I live or die. For to me, living means living for Christ, and dying is even better. But if I live, I can do far more fruitful work for Christ. So I really don't know which is better. I'm torn between two desires: I long to go and be with Christ, which would be far better for me. Philippians (NLT)

Woot!

God is watching over me! YEEAH!
This morning I broke a glass in my hand! Praise God it broke in two big pieces instead of a bunch of little pieces in my hand! Woot!

IT’S SNOOOOWING again!!!!!! YAAAAAY!!!!!! I LOVE IT! If the wind chill wasn't -12 I would totally go sledding!


This weekend was pretty…craptastically awesome…if that makes any sense.

Friday night was blaah but hey at least I got the house clean.
Saturday I colored my hair myself for the first time, it doesn't look too bad; I got the kind that washes out in 28 washes just in case I screwed it all up.
Sunday I geeked out of church, oops, but the super bowl party was AWEsooome! We had walking tacos and they were great! Now I can’t eat for the rest of the week because I’m pretty sure I hit my limit on calories. ha ha riiight.

It was nice to get out and have some fun and the game was good!

Today went pretty well, we were busy even though a lot of people canceled because of the weather. I was able to catch up on a lot of work! And FINALLY it seems like people are starting to come out of whatever funk they were in, including me...then again...it is only Monday.



Well, I'm off go to make snow angels in the yard and do doughnuts in the parking lot.

Yep!

Last week I was checking in this sweet older couple for their appointment and I answered one of their questions with a "Yep." hahaha The old man said, "Yep? You must have come off the farm."
hahaha I told him well, sort of, my Mom is a small town/farm girl and my Dad is a city boy
I was raised by both worlds. hahaha
All I said was yep! And I'll say it again.

Yep!
It's time to move forward, I've been stuck long enough. I've already started cleaning and going through the house getting it ready to sell when I want to try and sell. I'm trying trying TRYING to read my massage books to get ready to take the boards so I have a trade when I move away.
And now after a lot of prayer, it looks like these are the next steps I need to take.
My brother is trying to get a job anywhere he can, Kendi and Cory are looking to move in the next year or so. My parents just want us to move somewhere warm so they can come visit. :)

God has a plan!
I'm still young! I'm single! I really am smart even though I don't always believe that I am.
I don't know what his plan is for me, I do know that I am not in line with his will hiding here in my house, in my job, in my old friends and relationships.
He's been calling me I just didn't always know what the next step was supposed to be.
Ok God, I hear you calling me and I will go....now what? I don't always need to know the next step I just need to move! To follow him!

Jeremiah 29
This is what the LORD says: "When seventy years are completed for Babylon, I will come to you and fulfill my gracious promise to bring you back to this place. For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you," declares the LORD, "and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you," declares the LORD, "and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile."


I'm done trying to hide. Time to focus.

It's about friggin time!

Hey if you can't beat 'em join 'em! Especially when it comes to snow and you live in friggin IOWA where it's cold and snows all the time!

whew. ok.

Monday I got to cover for a lady at work because she was sick so I have a bit of overtime, YES! Tuesday I was sick but I went to work anyway; I survived barely. hahaha I did go home and go right to bed though and slept all night! Wednesday I was feeling pretty darn good.
We had small group again with the high school kids at church, that went pretty well. Except for the part where I cried at the end. boo hoo I was just tired so I'm over it. I love those kids! :)

Last night I slept incredibly well! I felt like I had slept through a whole day and was waking up on Friday...it IS Thursday isn't it?

Nothing new as you can tell from my meaningless rambling about sleep, crying and work.

I haven't worked on my workbook all week DANG IT! Probably tonight though, definitely tonight, then a little tomorrow.
I WANT TO DO THIS!

Ok off to work.
