Ok, Ok, so I’ve been MIA for quite some time. I know, shame on me. BUT, the good news is that I am gathering material for my new blog. I can’t reveal the name just yet, but know that I am getting it together and that it should be up and running within the next week.
I’m excited to say the least, because it will be encompassing much more topics that are relevant to us, yes us twenty something Christian women. We have A LOT of interests and I’m hoping to be able to encompass all of that in the new blog.
I’m praying to get some new programs for my computer to be able to do different things, to make it much more lovely.
Anyway, if you have any ideas, or suggestions of things that you want to see on the new blog, shoot me an email. I love getting mail!
...oops
Has it really been 2 1/2 months since my last post? That's just sad. (sigh) Well, things have been very busy around here but I swear (and I know I said this last time) I will get better at posting on a regular basis.
Anyway, just to catch you all up on what I've been doing with my life...
Spiritual Life
(deep breath) So, things at my home church have not been going so well. In fact, I started visiting other churches in my area. It's been my church since childhood so it's hard to just 'walk away' but I have to do what's best for me, what God would want for me. Granted I have skipped out on church a couple of Sundays, but I'm back on track and wanting that close personal relationship again.
Love Life
Well, it seems that I have gone and found a boyfriend. Correction, he has found me. After all this time, I am dating (for the second time) one of my oldest friends. I'm known B since middle school and we dated my first year of college for about a year. Anyway, we broke up but remained friends....blah blah blah, (the entire story would take way too long to explain) but the Lord put us back together again and it's great. He is more than just a boyfriend, but a friend, a Christian Brother, and my love.
Work Life
Going well, staying busy. The other day we had an event and for a moment, ok for a coupe of hours, I thought that this is just not the career direction that I want to head into. So I cried, it's what I do best, wiped away the tears and kept moving. Things have calmed down and bit and I'm really craving more responsibility so we'll see where it goes.
Other Life
Still finding things that I am interested in and aspire to do and be. I'm going to D.C. this weekend for the last weekend of the Cherry Blossom Festival. Can't wait to spend time with friends and take pictures of all of the blooming Cherry Blossoms, I hear it's lovely. I ran my first 1/2 Marathon in March and am feeling great! I've lost about 20 pounds and didn't realize that I could feel "this good."
Anyway enough catching up, I plan to be around a lot more often...
lovely
Worth a Saturday Post.I'm instantly in love. This is how I aspire to look and dress at all times....Classic, sophisticated, and a little sexy. How lovely.

facebook and dreams
So, I've been on facebook for two hours again. (I know, I know but I really couldn't help it this time)
Anyway, I went to school with some incredibly talented people. And again, I feel encouraged to really pursue what's in my heart.
So, what's in my heart? Umm....I'm not exactly sure yet.
Does it mean anything that I had a dream last night that I was a fourth grade teacher, teaching my kids about bugs (strange, I know).
Seriously God. A little direction right about now would be lovely.....
Friday Eve
Tomorrow is Friday, and with the week that I've had at work I am most grateful. (Then again, I'm most grateful for any Friday.)
But, I have to say that I finally got some things done this week that I had meaning to do for quite some time now.
-Hand wash clothes, delicates and such (This took forever. No wonder I always put it off.)
-Submit an article to a local publication
-Sent a query letter to another publication on how to submit an article
-Folded and put away a mountain of laundry
I know that non of this is terribly exciting, but it's real and sometimes it just takes a long time to put away those clothes. Anyway...i digress.
I'm really excited about submitting articles to publications. Like I mentioned earlier it's about time I dive in. Even if the water is cold. It's just so much better to just do it instead of sticking a toe, and then a foot in and then letting your legs dangle from the side... blah, blah, blah. By the time you warm up and get in, everybody else is out. No thanks, but that won't be my fate.
In other news, I have a decision to make in regards to my friend B. (Not the birthday B. This is another B. which just goes to show how many friends I have whose names begin with the letter B.)
I would get into all of the details but quite frankly ,it's been a long day and the only thing that I really want to get into, is bed.
Details coming soon.....
God is good.
My President
He's not just THE President of the United States, he's MY President, my leader, and I believe him to be my friend. While watching the inauguration online today at work, I can honestly say that I was actually PROUD to be an American. Most days I wish I were from England, France or some other classic European country. But today, for the first time, the only flag that I wanted to wave with my hands and heart was the American Flag.
