Redistribution of Weight

Tonight was one of those nights where my husband came home and he was obviously stressed.  He’s going to law school now, so it makes it difficult for him to ever feel as if his work is done.  This year being our first year married has also been a brand new struggle, because he has…

Morning Meetings

Now that we are finally moved, I’m finding times in the nooks and crannies to spend with God.  I realize that this isn’t the optimal for my life, the best thing would be for me to set aside ample time for my creator, but I also realize that making God a part of my day…

Why it’s Been a While Since I’ve Blogged…

It’s been a while since I’ve posted – and that is an understatement 🙂  I am full of excuses, all very valid reasons, actually.   They are as follows: 1.  I got married.  The weeks leading up to the wedding were pure craziness, so much so that I was waking up and doing stuff for the…

Thankful Thursday

I woke up this morning thinking, “It’s Thankful Thursday“, what am I going to write about?? This in and of itself I think is funny because I imagine God looking down and just shaking his head at all of my oversights. I mean, the mere fact I had socks that matched this morning was something…

Thankful Thursday (on Friday!)

Funny thing was that on Thankful Thursday our internet was doing something funky so I couldn’t get on to do my post 🙂 So, even though it’s Friday, below is my list of things I’m thankful for this week: 1) Finishing my favors. Those evil things had been taunting me too long. I have had…

Getting Showered with Love

If there is one thing about a wedding, it is that it really puts the spotlight and emphasis on the bride. Everybody makes statements like “It’s your day” or “Whatever you want”. These types of statements are hard for me, because if you know me, it’s not that I’m introverted by any means, but I’m…

I want to be known for….

I realize that whenever other people talk about work, it’s not very interesting to the person listening.  Well, this week, a very interesting thing happened at work that I thought was worth sharing.  I’ll be short, I promise 🙂 To put it simply, I was back in my office when my boss came and just…

Thankful Thursday

This is my first attempt at joining a meme that was listed on Christian Women Online, entitled “Thankful Thursdays”, started by Iris over at the blog Sting My Heart.  I think that taking a moment out of every week to focus on the things God has blessed me in my life is something that I very rarely do,…

A Life of Lean Cuisines…

Yesterday was the 4th day that I didn’t have anything to eat at the office.  I had even depleted the back-up cans of chef boyardee ravioli that sit in my desk for months on end until a time of “desperation” happens and I have nothing to eat. So I decided instead of taking a trip…

Living in the Moment

Lately I’ve been convicted of refusing to enjoy the present. I know that sounds odd, but I think planning a wedding has caused me to look far into the future at one day, and as a result I’ve started to anticipate the wedding more and more, without realizing that God placed me here and now…

The Martha Stewart Details…

I took a small period of time off – not on purpose, but because for two weeks I was sick with the death virus, and then of course had to make a mad dash to catch up.  The only way to explain the “death virus” is that it mentally robbed me of any ability to…

My Offer Still Sits…

So whatever happened to my offer?  Well, it set on a desk all last week.  I imagine on one like the picture below. I found out on Friday from my real estate agent that because we didn’t add “proof of funds” to it, the real estate agent representing the property wasn’t going to process it…
