7 Quick Takes

1. I have been informed (and now catch myself doing it) that every time I leave my office to walk anywhere, I look both ways before walking out the door. Like a little child. If you have ever walked our halls you would do the same thing! Safety first!!

2. I am such a creature of habit it is not even funny. I park in the same space or area in every parking lot that I use, I go as far as even using the same bathroom stall at work. TMI?

3. I've been strangely fascinated lately by the Christian's in the public eye. Of course everyone is watching Tim Tebow, but awhile back I started reading Baron Batch's Blog (which I would highly recommend) and he has some really interesting thoughts on living his faith and recently on protecting himself as a Christian Male, and one in the public eye. I definitely wish that all guys had the respect for themselves and for women that he is trying to show. It gives me hope.

4. I have to say that while I enjoy reading People magazine I never want to be in it. (Sorry Steve Helling) I love my life of anonymity and my precious 34 little blog readers!! And going to Walgreen's in my yoga pants, a hoodie, my jd hat and glasses and no makeup. Maybe I should add that I hope no one ever tells Stacy and Clinton about me either...

5. Seriously though, I have a hard enough trusting people as it is. I would think it would be a pretty lonely life if you always had to question someone's motives.

6. This is a rather deep installment of quick takes. Maybe I'm becoming smarter as I get ready to turn OLD?

7. I still can't believe I'm turning 30 next month. and yes. I am going to continue to say this and post about it.  It slightly makes me want to go into a STATE as my Mom puts it.

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...

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...
