Yet another reason why I love my BFF!!

So I'm home sick today working the last dredges of what Urgent care tells me was an Intestinal Virus, fabulous, and I get an email from my BFF Kim.

So I open it and it appears to be her Pastor's weekly email message to the congregation complete with a devotional and then upcoming events at the bottom. She didn't write a message with it so I was trying to figure out what she wanted me to read.

I skimmed through the devotional and it was pretty good so I thought, maybe she just sent it for that? I decide to scroll down and read the announcements, even though I am not in Florida attending their church :) and what do I see at the bottom that almost made me spit out the bland pancake I was trying to eat?

Only an announcement that my one serious ex's FATHER was coming to her church to preach for an entire Sunday! I read it twice, but I knew it was him. I mean hello, when you're an Iraqi native you have a rather distinctive name. I was in all kinds of shock! She would actually get to meet his father when I never got to when we were dating. (because I wasn't good enough I presume. He told me when I did meet them he would pick out my wardrobe. um. no!)

So I text my BFF in disbelief!!!

and you know what she responds?!

"Seriously?? That's who that is????? LOLOLOLOLOLOL"

Yes, my struggling best friend had sent me the email for the devotional, and despite having read the announcement (and prob. sitting thru it at church) she had NO.CLUE.

Bless her heart.

Yet another reason why I love Kim!

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...

Book Review: The moments you were mine by LJ Evans

Once again I was lucky enough to be on the ARC team for another book by LJ Evans. Since I have discovered LJ she has become one of my top 5 must read authors. LJ’s books are like Christmas Day. Or your birthday if you’re like me and obnoxiously celebrate both. :) You count down the days until it happens with great expectation and excitement and then it gets there and you almost don’t want it to be there because then it will be over and you have to wait another 364 days for the magic to come by again. Thankfully for all of us LJ writes more than one book a year so we are all #blessed in that aspect. I’m always super excited to get and read her books, but it’s a mixed feeling of not wanting to start reading it because then it will be over, and I can’t wait to read it and see what happens. Oh the struggle of being a book lover! I had some FEELINGS over Parker and Fallon. I felt like they were real people and at several points I wished they were real people so I could take t...

Life in Phone Pics

Can I just say how much I appreciate the fact that my new phone takes so much better pictures than my old one?! I have been using my phone for almost all of my pics! And bonus, no purple hair! Above is a new dessert I made. A Smores Cookie Bar. It was yummy. I had some and then realized I would eat the entire thing if I kept it. So I gave 90% of it away to my students. This just cracked me up. Last weekend when I was elevating my feet I obviously had the lights off and yet my toes were so neon pink that you could still see them in the darkness! My toes weren't the only thing pink on my body. My sunburn was of an epic proportion. now it has started to peel. Everywhere. Even my arms. yuck. I'll spare you from that! Oh well, at least my hair looked cute here! Yes, I am really showing you a picture of my cabinet. Last night I decided to totally move all but one of my cabinets. Erm. or rather the insides of them. My dishes and glasses used to be in th...

It's me, Charity
