Ringing it In

Happy New Years Eve, and Happy New Year! 

Its true by the way... So me! 

What You Won't Find On This Blog...

I just wanted to explain a little about me and the way this blog will work... 

You will not find on here... 

1. Fancy schmancy photos. - I am a teacher, and on a teacher salary.. I don't have a great DSLR camera sorry. 

2. Perfect grammar. - I work really hard all the time, and so this is an outlet and I don't want to worry about doing it correctly! 

3. Boyfriend talk. - Nobody has time for that. This is about me! 

4. Gloating. - I've got nice things, and I've got a nice family in a nice home... but again ... This is about me! 

5. Weekend posts! - Enough said with that. 

I am sure there will be other things you will not find here as well... but I can not list them all right now!

Halloween Bash

So my church had this lovely fall festival, and oh it was amazing. Booths set up for bible games, and that is how the children earned their candy too cute I tell you. I helped with decorating and registration to begin my day off and then I traded up my time to go and work the battle of Jericho booth.. Too cute.. Below are photos of my own from this adorable event.

I Am In Touch

I am in touch with the almighty and he is in touch with me. We are in touch with the side of me that is ill. I have a form of ovarian cancer.. I have been in and out of the doctors for several years and I am ok with that. I have prayed for healing, and I dont hurt. I have prayed for a heart that is free of pain over the condition.. I have prayed and while I might not be 100 percent in the clear all the time... My heart and mind are. I know I will walk away from this with my head held high... I know because I am in touch with my God, and my illness.

What are you in touch with?
What do you wish you were better in touch with?

Do What?

What am I going to be doing this week?
I know this week is almost over and all but I do have a plan in my life ok!

1. Write two blog posts. (complete and posted my dears)
2. Bake pumpkin bread for ministers of my church.
3. Send off papers for SEBT Womens Biblical Institute.
4. Finish cards for troops.
5. Go to a painting class.
6. Study for a test.
7. Do some bible study.
8. Go through books, movies and clothes to trade in and away.
9. Practice my music for choir.
10. Find a pair of shoes that dont trip me up to wear on Sunday.

What do you have planned for the rest of the week?

Regret

We all have it right?
Or is it just me?

No seriously we all have it. From what did I not do to why did I do that regret is something that we all face no matter what we utter to others. YOLO? Please.. or I regret nothing because it made me who I am... of course it did but the other thing would have made you someone too and it is always possible that it could be a better you. Yes I have regrets and I dont regret that I do. Maybe that is what they mean.. Do you think? I will start looking at it like that if you dont mind.

So want to know some of my regrets?

Not going to school for what I should have.
Losing love.
Losing friends.
White lies.
Big lies.
Photos not taken.
Not saying sorry when it was needed.
Saying sorry when it wasnt needed.

and the list goes on...

Anything you regret?
You dont have to tell me but just wink in your comment..

In my prayers always,

Olivia
