Tour of Lafayette!!





My Bro and SIL were in town for a business trip Thursday and Friday, and before we all headed home to the farm Friday night for a family weekend, I gave Liz a mini tour of Lafayette.

Thursday she picked me up for lunch and we went to Dog N Suds. Mmmmm.. sooo yummy!! Despite a brief moment of fear whether their monster truck was actually going to fit at the drive up, it fit and we had a great time! They have the comfiest vehicle for hanging out in! The front seat is HUGE and you can curl up and still have plenty of room. Man I wish my truck was like that I could take a SERIOUS nap at lunchtime!!!

That evening Kev went out with his work peeps and Liz and I headed to Arni's for dinner. I had been craving Arni's for quite some time. I don't think I've had it all year so it was time! We had a great time and great food, and she is addicted now as well!! Great conversation as well, we stayed for two hours! I love having family that are my best friends that we can share whatever is on my heart. We are so blessed that my brother married a wonderful, Godly woman, who not only loves him!!!!! but loves us as well and is an active and willing participant in our family!!

We all headed home Friday night and stayed up WAAAAYYYYYYY too late. But no fears we made up for that by sleeping in on Saturday, and ok I might have taken a nap as well:)

Sunday wasn't as great, I got a migraine late saturday night and despite taking my meds still felt bad Sunday morning. So I missed out on church and going out to eat with everyone. Which I realized, We've never all been out to eat together! We always eat at home, or I am in town with Kev and Liz and eat with them. So sadly, we still haven't. So I stayed in bed resting until everyone got home and then we all got ready and they headed home for Iowa and I headed back to L-town. I arrived safely and am feeling better. I honestly think it was from my electrocution Friday night. My neck feels fine and that's usually where I get my headaches from. But Friday night I started getting a horrible headache and it came back on Saturday night. SO I blame it on the near death experience!!!

Anyways that was this weekend, work tomorrow and Tuesday and then Surgery on Weds. Can't wait to get it over with!

45/52

This week was rather lackluster, because I came down with a sickness on Monday and was down for the count Monday and Tuesday. I was super annoyed, because I had not taken a sick day since May and I was really trying to make it to 2019 without that happening! Boo!  My new coffee maker came in the mail, and it is so cute! It's like a miniature coffee maker, only makes 4 cups. It's adorable.  My nephew's 4'th Birthday present came as well. And I was a little concerned at the size of the box. Thankfully it wasn't as large as it appeared, but still a decent size!  Wednesday I rejoined life after being sick and ran out to get some free stix from Hotbox pizza and look what I saw!!!! A New DD is coming much closer to my house!! OH I was SO EXCITED!!!!!!  That afternoon I was working on getting all of my Christmas tubs brought inside from the shed, so I could decorate on the weekend. Then I had some cancellations and decided to start. I got the Piano room ...

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...

The Bible Recap Day 45- Leviticus 5-7 (Year Three Podcast)

Welcome back to Leviticus Friends! Today we are in chapters 5-7 and I'll admit on the first pass through of it, while listening to it on my Bible app and reading along, I didn't make a ton of notes. But when I listened to the pod things made more sense, and I got a lot more from it. Which is why I highly reccomend listening to the pod after doing your reading. TL breaks it down and shares historical and meanings of things that those of us not steeped in our Hebrew, might not know.  Things I found interesting: She mentioned that God is the only one who has spoken so far in Leviticus. Tomorrow we get a switchup with Moses and Aaron but so far the first 7 chapters have all been God talking! We talk about blood some more, and she again makes the note that it is a reminder of the fall and that God is working on rebuilding Eden. She also notes that blood is given back to God because God is the giver and taker of life.  A question I had, when we were in 5:11, talking about the rich a...
