Praying

This morning a 3 year old asked me to bless the food we were about to eat. I couldn't refuse but at the same time color rose to my face. I haven't prayed in quite some time so doing it aloud and in front of a family caused some anxiety inside of me. As I started to pray the familiarity of the act took over me and calmed me. It felt good. I know that God will bless this family as they head to a Tennessee to start a new life, and I felt confident in the fact that God heard my prayer because it was about a God-fearing family. It felt safe to pray for others. I don't have enough faith left anymore to pray for myself. I've found that it's easier to just live my life, and I am much happier not being governed by fear and the judgment of others. Faith is a wonderful, blessed thing... and God exists. I have no doubt of that. But I prefer living as I am, and have been content in that choice.

Georgia and I, Look how cute we are...

Okay, Okay

Apparently a picture of Brent is in high demand since I refer to him so frequently. Yes, he is the love of my life. Yes, he is the man I want to spend the rest of my life with. BUT HE HATES PICTURES. Georgia has taken some cute ones of us and that is where this picture comes from, but when he sees this on my blog, I am going to get scowled at AND attacked. Attacked with tickles of course. Oh well, I can face the consequences.

Music and Cleaning

My honey of a boyfriend created a Cleaning Playlist on TiVo. What that means is anytime we clean we put on upbeat, fun music and almost forget the task at hand. Right now I am typing as he is cleaning up the dishes. I keep going up behind him dancing and he can tell I am just hyper. If you have never listened to El Matador by Los Fabulosos Cadillacs... dude you better!

Training Yet Again

I am sitting in training again, this time for the part of my job that will become permanent. It’s exciting to know that next week I will be helping my team to decrease the massive volume we have. The problem is, we are in a lull and I just ate lunch… so I am getting bored and sleepy. I want to be home curled up with my honey. Or at least be entertained reading emails. I haven’t gotten any emails from my sister Georgia yet today and that seems surprising. Since she left for Korea I have been running errand for her and we have been talking regularly over Skype. It’s pretty cool. She was being silly last night sticking her tongue out and what not. Thank goodness for WebCams. I got teary when she imitated giving me a hug, but I maintained. It’s going well. Back to focusing on training… LOL.
