7 Quick Takes

1. I am in a word, EXHAUSTED. I got a taste of what the faculty go through last night as I was at work until 9:45 pm and then back here at 7:50 am. Needless to say the weekend is going to be like the Bruno Mars Lazy Song.

2. I stepped out of my box and tried the chicken club tacos at Chili's today when I met Emboz for our monthly lunch. They were really really good!! and cheap!!

3. I really get the weirdest twitter followers. Does anyone else have this issue? I wonder where these people find me? and yet they don't tweet me? odd.

4. We made it through non instructional week without ANYONE crying!!! This is HUGE!! Nor did I eat ANY ice cream! That is WAY HUGE!!!!!!!!!!! However Payless had Edy's on sale tonight so I may or may not have bought some to stock up for the first week of classes :)

5. It made my day to have Holly visit me this afternoon!!! She was at the bookstore and stopped by to see me. I am recycling my magazines and giving them to her every week. yay!

6. I got to talk to Apes this week when I couldn't find something in her old desk I was texting her trying to find out where it was so she called the office and told me. it was soooo good to hear her voice and especially her laugh! I think I have been trying to not think about how much I miss her.

7. I really can't believe I made it through this week. It's all by the grace of God and God alone. It was hectic and chaotic and crazy busy and exhausting but it's over. And I don't have to think about Non Instructional week untill Spring. Hallelujah.

(8) If I never blog again it's because the first week of classes killed me :)

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...
