Nothing New Under The Sun

Well I wish I had something extremely interesting or funny to post here, but the past week has been nice and quiet.

The Library has seen WAY too much of me, as has my couch. I am beginning to wonder if the reason my hip keeps going out is from me curled up on my couch every night! ooops!

I have been searching a for a good mystery/thriller author at the library. I really like Lisa Gardner's books and Lisa Scottoline.. (and no I don't just read books written by people named Lisa!) I found some suggested authors online and found a few of their books yesterday so I'm going to try them out. I have really gotten into reading lately I don't know why. I guess because nothing is on TV and I want something to do. With an apt its not really like I can hang outside and do stuff, and its been in the 90's anyway, so who wants to? So inside in my air conditioning I stay!

So I joined a Biggest Loser with some of my friends. Today was my first official day and I'm not doing so good! Someone suggested I need more protein to keep me powered up and I deinately think she was on to something. I had grapes for breakfast and crystal lite fruit punch and I was seriously hungry by 10:30. Of course I eat at 7 when I get to work so its no wonder!

I felt better after my sammy at lunch but then pizza was in the office.. and well.. i caved... sigh... not the greatest start but I am determined to go from FAT to FIT!! I found a scale that tracks your weight loss and is digital, so I think i'm going to pick that up. I have an old scale that isn't digital and i don't know if its my old contacts or the lines but i can't read it for the life of me! So ditital we go!!

I found my athletic shoes last night so I'm going to take a foray to the gym tonight. I know. Me+Gym=mind blowing! But I've got to do something to get with it! If Edge can do it and lose then so can I! Of course I don't have the winnings to motivate me like she does, but hey!

My parents are heading to Iowa this weekend to help my bro and sil roof their house. Thankfully they aren't in the massive flooding but it is around them and they have gotten alot of rain so the roofing desperately needs done. I know Dad will enjoy being with Kev and working with him so that will be nice. I always get nervous and worry when my parents travel places without me. Iowa is almost 5 hours away and I just worry about an accident or things that could happen to them and I wouldn't be around. Like I could prevent it if i was there! One of my co workers called me Mom today and it was funny because so many of my friends call me that. She said I was a worrywart and worried about everyone, which is true! I can't help it! Half the time I worry about people I don't even like that well, just because I don't want bad things to happen to them! Yes I am weird. Accept it.

JESUS IS COOL!!

Have you read Ted Dekker? His books are usually quite suspenseful with a surprise ending. Start with Thr3e - quite a shocking end. Even my dad who figures out books/movies right away was shocked. And don't cheat by reading the last page. :) I tend to do that and thankfully was listening to it on CD so I was totally shocked.

patricia Cornwell has some really good murder mystery books. They're very CSI, it revolves around the Chief medical examiner and a Cop and them solving murders, all sorts from serial killers etc. I LOVE her books. definately check them out if you can!

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...

Blue Monday!

Today's Festive Blue Monday outfit! I wore my tried and true trouser jeans, a short sleeved beaded top I got on clearance at Macy's of all places for 6 bucks!! And my awesome new jeweled flats! Sooo comfy and cute! Since it was in the 60's today I was able to get away with this warmer weather outfit! Beading on the top, I love it! Shoes, so ugly they are cute!!

New Bedroom Decor!

 Every Year my SIL outdoes herself with the gifts she gave us the year before. This year was no exception! She made this amazing picture for me. If you look close all of the pieces of the heart are small pictures of me and my friends! I was amazed! I still can't get over it! I just love it so much!  So I decided to hang it above my bed. I don't have a headboard and I have really felt like my room was lacking something to pull it together. I think this picture does it nicely! And yes, I sleep with a stuffed animal. I'm single, don't judge! I also sleep with 5 pillows. I tend to fall out of bed. They are like my bumpers! HA! Seriously though I just love it and it's so neat to look at all the pics of different friends and stages in my life and remember all of the fun memories! Thanks Liz!!
