this week has been...

long.
boring.
extremely lonely.


Okay, so maybe I'm being a bit dramatic, but a whole week without the guy I love has me down in the dumps.  You would be too!  But at least I'm doing more of a few good things!  Like knitting!  Today I sat on the couch for at least 3 hours (after 7 hours of work, don't worry!) and knitted away.  I'm working on a baby blanket for Mark's step sister - Taryn - who is due in just a few months!  She is having a girl, so the blanket is mostly purple and pink with small amounts of brown and green.  I also have been listening to podcasts' more and doing a lot of cleaning around the house.  I guess Mark being gone isn't all bad, at least I'm somewhat more productive than usual.  

On a brighter note, I applied for a new job on Monday.  My friend Demi suggested it to me, and truthfully I'm REALLY excited, I hope I get an interview!  Leaving the kids I work for right now might be hard, and pretty sad, but this job is better paid, with benefits, and honestly, work has been driving me crazy lately, and Mark might appreciate having a sane girlfriend again ;)  Keep that situation in your prayers, I definitely feel God pushing me into something different, and this would be a great opportunity!

One last thing to talk about...that no sugar thing hasn't been working out very well.  :(  We both did well for about a week, and then Mark felt guilty about eating a blueberry scone and made me a peppermint mocha at work :)  So, although I haven't been 100% sugar free, I'm still working on better eating habits and less sugar in general.  

OH YEAH!  Shout out to SARAH, SHAKES, ART AND NAOMI!!  They kept me occupied over the weekend and made sure we had a great time, looking forward to my next power half hour! ;)
have I mentioned how much I miss my man?

to live is Christ, to die is gain.

The apostle Paul wrote those words in Philippians 1:21...God did some miraculous work thru Paul didn't he!? After Paul saw the light (literally) he traveled to Judea, Syria, Cilicia, Galatia, Pamphylia, Asia, Macedonia, Achaia and Italy. WOW. I've shared God's word....via skype to my bestie Nicole and...uhhh..shoot. What am I doing?! Yikes, I'm so ready to go, to tell of God's glory, to "Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and teaching." (2 Tim. 4:2) Its convicting to know that I really haven't done as much as I could be doing, if I died, I have no doubt I would meet Jesus, my Lord and Savior would know my heart and how much I love Him and my willingness and readiness to share Him with the world..but I also know He will stand before me and say, Look at what you could have had, if only you had come to me sooner, done My work rather than yours. In one of my earlier posts I had writ...

Midnight in Paris

I just stumbled upon these seriously gorgeous photos of Marion Cotillard and had to share! I am now itching to see Midnight in Paris because of its 93% rating from Rotten Tomatoes {and dang it's hard to please them!}. Have you seen it, did you enjoy it? xxoo

What I've been HALFway reading.

Guys. I've started around 512 books over the last few months. I haven't finished any. GAH. Here's just a few - Divergent by Veronica Roth. I'm so excited to actually keep reading this. I loved the movies but feel like the books are ALWAYS better. I haven't read much of this one yet because I feel guilty every time I pick it up. I always feel like I should be reading something that will improve me. I'll finish it some day. Simple Steps to Foot pain Relief by Katy Bowman, MS. I started reading this one for clients who have foot / knee / hip / back / shoulder pain. Basically any pain. I love trying to help my clients more than what they expect, so bits of information I can soak in and pass on are great! Katy Bowman does a great job breaking down the foot and then gives some awesome techniques on things you can do to help your feet. I'm close to done with this one actually, and thats good because it's due back at the library in a few days. Goo...
