A Date with me

I spent yesterday morning in a poor me state of mind, having a pity party if it were over the fact that I don't have a boyfriend and most of my friends are busy with work or their boyfriends. And then I realized I was doing that and got out of the house. It was beautiful! I took myself to Target did a little shopping, took myself to see Transformers 3D (I think I'm the only one who still appreciates and enjoys 3D movies...lol) then went to Kohls, walmart and finally met up with Kati for a Hy-Vee trip. Man it was such a beautiful day! I rode with the windows down music blaring my favorite song on repeat. There was a smile on my face! A huge one driving down the road.

So I find myself sitting here this morning trying to pull up my two face book games I have left that I still sort of play and it hits me. I'm bored. Bored of the games, bored of the house, bored of my normal. This transition is actually really fun for me! I try to be in God's word morning and evening (I'm not perfect at it but man its so cool to start and stop the day with just me and God) and I'm exercising more too! It's awkward trying to find my footing again flying solo and yet its peaceful! (When I don't allow myself to throw a surprise pity party) Life is short and it needs to be lived. God gets the glory over everything good and bad that happens and while we're here we should be dancing in the rain and singing at the top of our lungs, letting the wind whip through our hair, and loving on the ones we have while they are here. With that said its time for me to shower and go take my nephews and niece their 4th of July outfits I got them yesterday!!! YAY!

Happy 4th of July everyone! Let freedom ring and may God bless our beautiful country! Take a moment out of your day Monday and thank a Soldier and say a prayer for the ones that don't get to be home because they have the greatest honor a person could have, they are defending our freedom so we can watch fireworks and parades and have BBQ SAFELY. THANK YOU TROOPS! YOU ARE LOVED AND PRAYED FOR AND APPRECIATED!

Em...I enjoy reading your blog and the brutal honesty about yourself. This most recent post makes me very proud of you, for what it's worth. And that's nothing compared to what the Father feels for you in your perseverance to run after Him. He is absolutely delighted in you and your worship of Him.
