Ash Wednesday
There's not much to write. I work full time now for a little bit and I'm grateful for the extra cash! I've decided to celebrate Lent this season by giving up some foods, and we're buying a friend's car. It's a 94 Buick in pretty perfect condition, much better anyway than our '00 Ford Focus. It will last at least another few years, if not more. And ( Read more... ) -
For valentine's day...
I'm exhausted. There's drama on the horizon at work, but it comes with a double pay increase for me, so the drama is *almost* worth it ( Read more... ) -

If you're interested in hearing about my weight loss trials, tribulations, and victories, I have a new journal. You can go there and friend me. I don't particularly want to spill about it here, because it can be mundane, and I'm sure not everyone wants to hear about it. But I still want to document it.

An Amazing weekend...
I had one of those rare, lovely, and perfect weekends. It started out with a ministry event at our church that I can only explain to all who read this as an intense weekend of therapy and worship. We talk about unforgivensss, regrets, mother/father wounds etc. Our executive pastor of freedom ministry had his own counseling practice for years before ( Read more... ) -
Foodie Woodie...
So I'm sitting here sampling my amazing "Chocolate Secrets" Chocolate that was a birthday gift from Kat. I chose to eat the purple one because it looked pretty, and I love white chocolate and lavender. For those that have not visited Chocolate Secrets, go now! It's in Dallas, and they also serve kick butt crepes and at night it turns into a Jazz ( Read more... ) -
Culture of Honor
If I could recommend any book to a person it would be "Culture of Honor." So good.
This is a day where I just want to be rid of my caretaking responsibilities and just sit in a hot bath or jacuzzi until I'm sufficiently pruned. *sigh*. Nonna's house needs a hot tub. I'd be taking advantage of that like woah. -
Mental Health and Wine
Yesterday started out pretty normal. It was my birthday and like every saturday, we slept in. Then I headed to a late lunch with my mom and brother. Halfway through the lunch, Kevin calls in a panic. "Nonna's going crazy!" I can hear crashing, banging, and yelling in the background and can only think "here it comes." I try to get her on the phone ( Read more... ) -
My heart for Haiti...
While I sit and type this women, children, and many men are still trapped under rubble. They're probably wondering if anyone will come find them, their minds reeling at the reality that they might die under that collapsed building ( Read more... ) -
Lazy Sunday
Sundays are by far my favorite days. Today was a typical lazy sunday filled with late rising, card games in the early morning sunlight, making breakfast, more lazing around, and football. I've yet to get out of my pj's and I'm content with that. The house is clean, nonna is happy, and Kevin is relaxing. This to me, is exactly what life should be ( Read more... ) -
