Kindle Reads

So here I am going through my Kindle... My Kindle that I havent cracked the turn on button in months.... and I am looking through it and I say ... "Girl you have some good stuff on here" and so I decided that I would start with my first title.. A great book.. One of my first romance novels.. A Rose in Winter.. by Kathleen Woodwiss.. I am in love with it and it is a lovely read.. I will tell you more once adult me reads it. 

So you are probably wondering what my favorite book is... I think it is a toss up between Anne of Green Gables or Little Women. 

Little Women wins hands down at the last minute!

Communication Communication Communication

Faithful Reader,

Bad Things

Happening to Good People...

Faithful Reader,

My last post about my mother got me thinking... How on earth do you deal with bad things happening to good people? As I said she didnt deserve this... But God has a plan. A GREAT plan that we can not see. I thought a lot about it... God doesnt have to explain himself to me or to my mother because we are going to be flabbergasted by the results of all that has happened.. and we will bow down, and praise him...

Bad things will happen to us... Bad things happened to Jesus and we are no better.

Do you agree? How do you feel about this?

No hate mail please...

Credit Karma

Thoughtful

Faithful Reader, 

So on August 11th my life changed forever. My Mother went into the hospital that morning at 7am, and woke up on August 12th.. about 8pm. My Mother had just been diagnosed about 3 weeks before with a tumor.. A tumor in her head.. A tumor that had to come out, and yesterday. Since that day we have had nothing but agony. Agony for her. She is a beautiful, strong and amazing woman that didnt deserve all this.. Why? We watched her crippled at this surgery, and rehab stint. But she is home now, and we couldnt be happier. Everyday it is like God gives us a new reason to smile at the favors he has bestowed upon us and we are not even worthy. I am thoughtful today because today is 3 months since she left the hospital for rehab, and we are in a new better place. It is still a struggle but we face it together. 

What is on your mind today? Thoughtful about anything? 

Thankful

Ahh its Wednesday... A day where I am neck deep in my lovely, and God filled church. I have so many things to be thankful for.. and going being in the house of the Lord fills my heart with a grateful spirit.

1. Church. A place I can go and be with people who are on my side, and that I can rejoice with. 
2. Family. My beautiful little family that has been through so much and is still together. 
3. Life. 
4. Work. 
5. Happiness. 

Too many things..

Christmas Cheer

Faithful Reader,

So I will have series of posts... Can you wait? I cant! 

December 1st- The Tree 
December 8th- The Lights

Do you write any series? How do you keep up with the flow?

What an awesome month.. This first month of the new year.. and my birthday month. So what am I doing this month you ask.. Well I have a list of things to get me started. 

1. Have a rocking birthday. 

I plan on having a little party with my friends. We will watch my favorite movie.. eat some party foods, and well fellowship. 

2. Finish reading my book Love Me Tender! 

I have enjoyed it so far. I can not wait to finish. 

3. Join my church gym. 

I work at church. I sing at church... I will more then likely get healthy at church. Mentally, Emotionally, and Physically. 

4. Start a Bible reading plan. 

My church is doing one as a whole and I can not wait to get started. 

5. Find a part time job. 

Looking into a lot of different options here. I hope I can find one. 

What do you have planned for the month? 

2014 Resolutions

We all have had a 2013 for the books good and bad.. Trying and triumphs. We all said Goodbye to 2013 last night but we have said hello to 2014. I say hello by making a list of resolutions for the new year and new beginnings I get with it. 

2014 will be a great year that holds many smiles, good health, and love. 

I will make 14 items in honor of this year.. 
Ready? 

1. Simplify my life. 
Buy only what I absolutely NEED. Get rid of items that are not used. 

2. Drink water like it is going out of style. 
I drink it now but not at all like I should. So I want to drink mostly water and try cutting diet coke down. 

3. Read my Bible in full. 
I just received a new one for Christmas and what better way of breaking it in? 

4. Garden. 
My cat passed away this September and where I have buried him I would like to garden.. He loved little flowers and so I want to make sure that his dwelling is just as beautiful as he made my life. 

5. Have more quality alone time with God. 
I pray, and I do Bible studies... but I want to be closer with God to hear what he has to say and know when he says it. I want to grow spiritually. 

6. Go on a mission trip. 
My church is offering many chances for just this type of activity. I hope no plan to take one of them and run with it. 

7. Get healthy. 
Not diet. I just want to be healthy. 

8. Give back. 
Enough said with this. 

9. Eat at home. 
I spend A LOT of time on the road so I am constantly picking up food out. I need to take the time to cook at home. 

10. Take time for me. 
Seriously? Yes ... Me time has been in short supply. 

11. Make more quality friendships. 
I have not done this one in a LONG time. 

12. Finish school. 
I have school to finish, and I will get it done by this year. 

13. Take a community class. 
Dance? Spanish? Cake decorating? Flower arranging? Spin class? I do not know but I will take one. 

14. Blog more. 
I in the past held blogging to an every day activity.. I enjoyed it, and I miss it. 

So these are my choices of what to do with my year. 

What are you doing?
