What I learned in May....

 
 
That my life is too, too, too Crazy Busy.  This is my fault.  I do not say no, I overbook, I worry, I fret, I add a little more, I procrastinate, I worry some more, I do not delegate, I do not make my needs known, and so on,  and so on,  and so on.....
 
I really need summer.... the lightened schedule, the interactions with friends, the down time.
 
 
I survived two graduations...I was mostly worried about the finality of K's High School graduation but I actually enjoyed myself.  I was so proud of both of my graduates :)
 
 
I learned that I need to follow my dreams, aspirations, and beliefs.  I need to be confident in what I believe is my calling.  Otherwise, my life is just out of sync and unmanageable. 
 
 
It is OK to not feel certain things are important even when other people feel they are.  We are created to make choices and sometimes my better choice is not another's better choice.
 
 
Life always works out exactly how it is supposed to....you may have to go through the same fires until you get it right, but it always works out according to God's plan when we let him have control.
 
 
I like cats after all.  A box full of kittens can change your heart.
 
 
If I never lose another pound I can still enjoy my life....and definitely the food that goes with it :)
 
 
I have an overactive brain that has a million wants and a to do list that is impossible to accomplish.....slow it down.....
 
 
A "Thanks for all you do" does not fill the need for a "Sorry for what I did"
 
And some people never change, grow, or acknowledge their fault in a situation. That is alright.  That is where thankfulness that those people are minor players in your game of life comes in.

Friday's Fav Five

Today I am joining it with a new link up for me.  It is hosted by  Living to Tell the Story .   My Friday Fav Five list goes something like this... 1. My three older girls were still up watching television together when I went to bed last night.  My room is right next to the living room so I could hear their conversations.  Although I wasn't ease dropping, I did start to listen.  They were talking about casual and personal things.  I realized that they are all growing up and their conversations with each other are growing as well.  It was like listening to a group of 3 women talking over coffee.  My heart wanted to burst and I may have teared up or actually cried..... maybe. I am so thankful for this wonderful bond they will have with each other for the rest of their lives. 2.  I am just thankful it is Friday.... we have had snow and strep throat at our house this week.  I am ready to shut the books on this we...

Daybook....

Good Morning, I am linking up with  The Simple Woman's Blog  for the weekly Daybook For today... February 9, 2015 Outside my window .... Chilly (in the 30's for a high) but no snow.  Most of the snow has melted from the warm temps this weekend. I am thinking ... that I had a great, great weekend with my family. I am thankful. .. that my children view each other as important.  We had to plan Lucy's birthday celebration around Katie's work hours because she just started her new job and can't request time off.  Lucy would have never considered celebrating her birthday without her big sis present. I am wearing. .. my sparkly sweater again.  I must need the sparkles to handle a Monday morning. I am creating ... nothing at the moment, but do have some unfinished projects.  My mind has been exhausted lately and I am just chilling and puttering around. I am praying ... for a family decision that could make a huge difference in our live...

On the Books for January 5, 2015

Today I am joining up with The Simple Woman to give you a peek into my daybook for this week...   Outside my window.... There is a light dusting of snow.  Nothing too intimidating...yet.   I am thinking... That a salad for lunch sounds good today.  I do not usually like salad so this is a little  weird. I am thankful... That I was able to spend quality time with my people the past week and a half.  I am wearing.... Work attire :( no more sweats until whenever I have to leave the house.   I am creating... I just purchased some new yarn over the weekend.  So I am getting ready to start a new scarf and some boot cuffs.   I am going... To Walmart on lunch.  Yep, back to normal this week.  I am wondering.... How many days until the next holiday :)  I am reading.... Just my devotional this week.  I am doing Jesus Calling again this year and maybe the Women of the Bible devotional as ...
