monday cleaning day...
monday cleaning day...
the earlier i start the better... however today i got a late start and of course now i am prolonging the inevitable by stopping to write nothing much on this blog...
these days aren't too bad. it always reminds me of when i was a stay at home mom mostly full time. it's nice... and i am thankful for all the things i have to keep clean and the lovely people who mess them up. i'm a lucky girl! i say girl cause that's what i feel like on the inside. now i know what old ladies mean when they say things like "i don't know how it happened" and "i still feel the same as i did then"
well just a short hello... back to my blessings

Connection...
What makes us not want to connect with people???
Maybe you don't have this problem... If you don't count yourself lucky because it doesn't come so easy for some of us.
It's not that I believe we are supposed to have this deep connection with everybody. But I do believe that God places people in our lives to connect deeply with for one reason or another.
Sometimes I have this picture in my mind like... remember growing up and there was that one man in your life that would hold your head as you tried to reach for them to playfully knock them around a bit??? I feel like that! I'm standing there holding my arm out palm flat on peoples forehead letting them flail about while sizing them up. Even though my mind is say JUST PUT YOUR ARM DOWN.... my brain is flashing a red stop you've come far enough light screaming caution caution CAUTION.
Hmmmm something to pray about...
Lord help me to just put my arm down and trust you...amen

If I'm Honest...
If I’m honest I feel required to go deeper than I want to go. As the waves of life pound against my over thinking brain I have no desire to go where they want to take me… I’m not sure why really or if it’s even true. Maybe I do want to go and I’m lying to myself at this very moment.
My life feels full of stops and starts things left undone never quite completing much of anything. I look at where I’ve been and where I wish I was and I get stuck somehow in between.
It’s a frustrating…
It leaves me feeling like I just can’t get the job done… yes, yes, yes I know these are LIES FROM THE PIT OF HELL (said very dramatically)!
Just another storm before the calm I guess fighting the good fight and all.
I heard a fantastic concept of the New Year this morning during our devotion time at work. In regards to the New Year comparing 2011 and 2012 to old and new wine skins and how it is time to cast of the old wine skins start over in our new wine skins be prepared to stretch and grow all over again in new ways in the new year. It sounds lovely and painful.
I think this is the beginning…

a new book...
Hello all and Happy New Year!!!!
I've started a new book this morning... in fact I've only read the preface and can't wait to devour the rest! The book is called "Breaking Free" by Beth Moore. This book after reading what it was about seemed like the perfect way to start off the new year...
Feel free to join me... I'll weigh in on Monday as I've done in the past. I'd love to hear you thoughts and journey with you in Breaking Free in 2012 :)
This week Part 1 Chapters 1 & 2
