And yet another storm....

been a looooooooooonnnnnnnnggggggggg day..........

The Storm

The storm has passed....not so sure I danced in the rain but I'm trying......

Conviction.....

Feeling it this morning. I feel like I'm just wasting my time, not doing anything for the Kingdom, no church, no prayer, I have fallen back into the same old pattern from years ago...........I don't know how to get back on track and get back to where I wanna be. The family seems happy staying up late, doing whatever, sleeping in, wasting weekend after weekend. I feel alone in my conviction. I need prayers and I need to be praying and reading the Word. Lord help me. I just exist.......

VD ~ Valentine's Day

well the craft item was a hit. ;-)
He recycled a card to me ~ that too was funny but serious.
We had our son make us a pizza....it came home heart shaped ~ how romantic?!

A Craft Item....

I got this craft idea from another blogger ~ of course I don't know how to link the page yet ~ but if I figure it out I will give them credit. So anyways my friend and I each crafted one of these this past weekend for our hubbies. Some of my reasons were "racy", some "serious", some "funny"....here's the cover and one reason...

My How Sundays Have Changed For Me....

Sundays have become lazy ~ very very lazy. Why do I not have the desire to get my butt out of bed and go to church anymore?! I use to LOVE to go to church, I had such a huge DESIRE to go, I so ENJOYED it.....but now ~ not so much. I went to church 15 times last year and a big fat zero of times this year. Lord help me ~ I need YOU...

.... a cry for help

An Original Poem By Me....

The family joke has always been “why are they running? Nothing is chasing them”.

But then one day I said “what the hey”.

I signed up and paid for my first 5K.

I walked it with a group of WW STL METRO girls, for most of us it was our first race,

We kept up a pretty steady pace,

We made it in under 56 minutes, running that last few seconds with such grace.

That was March 2008,

I’ll always remember the date.

Now I’ve went and done it, I’ve caught the running bug, now it’s my fate.

After some mind boggling thoughts,

Like what am I thinking?

What am I drinking?

Is this really me wanting to jog?

My head must be in a fog.

I overcame my brain and I signed up for my next 5K,

And I bought my first pair of “running shoes” from Big River Running before the big day.

My second 5K came and went.

Improving my time was training time well spent.

So I only had jogging spurts every now and then.

Got passed up by a few women and men.

But overall I shaved minutes off my time.

Life is good, if running without being chased is my only crime.
