Week in Review

This is kind of a jumbled together throw it all in post, but I thought since I have some new reader and people actually commenting! YAYS!! HIiiiiii!!! *waves* I had better start posting a little more often!

So this week has went by slowly for some reason. I am proud to say that after STAR moved to Elliot I have successfully led the group of people to MTW every day this week WITHOUT getting lost. Or taking them to the basement of Elliot. I will however admit that on Monday I did have a brief moment of confusion on which sidewalk to take and started praying furiously for a sign, I looked up and voila University's steeple!! Thank you Purdue for putting a steeple on that building so I know which direction to head. I owe you.

Sadly I have not mastered the art of walking backwards while talking and leading my group. I have three more days to get that down before STAR ends. I am determined DETERMINED to do it. But maybe not tomorrow. We have a huge group and if i fall or trip, i really dont' want to do it in front of 100 people..

I have been faithfully exercising this week. I am back on the wagon!! Tonight I cardio biked 30 miles, which took a little over an hour, and i burned 1301 calories! WOOT! GO ME!! Sadly about 1/3 of those calories were from the Starbucks that Mary and I got this afternoon.

We took a walk to the union for a Starbucks run and the oh so helpful cashier dude (i say this sarcastically) could not tell me the difference between a mocha frauppucino and a blended creme double chocolatey chip frauppucino but he did have the helpful tip of "eat it slowly" rubs belly "it has 1300 calories in it!!" might i mention he gave me a rather POINTED look when he said that. I about slapped him. Thankfully for my sake I didn't like the drink and drank 1/3 of it. If that. Last time I'm adventerous. Seriously that is why I am so routine and always get the same thing when I go places. Anytime I try something different i don't like it!

I know. Tales of my Starbucks experience are pretty darned thrilling. But if you're here reading my blog you're probably not looking for anything that would classify for a pulitzer prize. and if you are. well.. sorry.

And now my dear readers I think I am going to head to bed early. I don't feel that great, haven't all day and the crappy fraup didnt help. Another big day of STAR is upon us tomorrow and then, blessedly, the weekend. Sleep. I am coming. I love you Sleep!!

What a disgrace to Starbucks, the guy couldn't tell you the difference between a mocha and a was was previously known as "java chip." If I remember correctly, one has expresso and one does not-BIG Difference! For shame!

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...

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!!
