I have more than enough!


Okay, I have been busy and lets just say a tad bit overwhelmed which essentially causes me not to blog or photograph, or write....or do much of anything except sulk. So, this morning I have the ultimate "woe is me moment" and actually cry so hard I think I might puke (sometimes a girl just needs a good cry right)...well, wrong...I continued to walk around the house cranky and ineffective. So, I made myself some comfort food (homemade mac and cheese-full of fat and calories...yum) and sat down to read kissesfromkatie.blogspot.com for a reality check. AND, that is exactly what I got. This young girl is such an amazing, mature, God loving and fearing woman and she just takes my breath away...literally, because I cry when I read her blog.


I am always amazed that when I am needing some insight, God always has the ability to get me the information I need exactly when I need it. And it took the Sunday entry on this blog to snap me right out of my self centered mode. I wish I could articulate and provide insight and scriptures that would describe to you what she was teaching, but I just can't. I just know that I really needed to hear her message on appreciating what you have because it is probably more than enough. If you want to read about this spectacular woman and all that she accomplishes on a daily basis through God you will just have to go her blog and read it. No matter how busy you are, or what other tasks you can distract yourself with, or how intimidating her long prose is IT IS WORTH IT....trust me.....read her blog.
Just to make it super easy here is the direct link (you can also get to her blog through the Amazima site I have marked on my sidebar):

Have a great day everybody and remember....chances are if you are reading this blog you probably have MORE than enough.

  1. Wow, what an inspiring girl.
    Of course I mostly read her stuff and think of what a jerk I am...not sure why I tend to go the negative route! Made me feel awful how she kept saying she was having worldly moments just wanting chocolate!

  3. Wow...what an amazing woman. I couldn't stop reading, and Bayley was late to football because of it. :)

    I've done a lot of reflecting on this very subject lately with the economy. Really trying to focus on NEEDS rather than wants. When she says they will only use 3 hours of electricity to save money, so they can give more. WOW.

    Thanks for the inspiring blog. I will read it when I am feeling sorry for myself.

Issues

Ok, I've got issues...oh, you already knew that?!?! Is that because everything I feel comes out of my mouth...see just one of my "issues"..... I would rather sit and read other people's blogs for hours rather than clean my house I would rather eat chocolate frosting than chicken and veggies for dinner I would rather sit on the couch and read than feed my family I would rather play Fantasy Football than sew or crochet I would rather relax by the pool with a People Magazine than study history or something else intelligent I would rather take pictures of people or things all day than get a real job I would rather sit on the beach all day with this view than run errands I want to be a good wife and mother with a spotless house and place beautiful healthy meals on the table and never raise my voice...BUT....this is just not reality for me!!! God bless my poor family......

Why run a marathon

-my Dad has always wanted me to (and he won't get off my back until I do) -I can eat whatever I want during training (like the two whole cream cheese poundcakes my Mom made during the holidays that I hid in the back of fridge so my family wouldn't find them and ate them entirely by myself) -when I turn 40 this month I will hopefully know that I can at least run far even if the rest of my body is falling apart and I have to hold things way out in front of me to read them -Michael ran one and I can't let him hold that over my head (noooo, I'm not competitive) -I have a great excuse to get out of my house away from my kids and listen to my IPOD for hours at a time (this is my favorite reason) -I get to buy cute new running clothes without guilt because I am actually running in them -I get to show up ay Sophie's school in the morning in sweats and a hat with the excuse that it is a running day (even when it's not) -it's is the only way to spend time with Lyric b...

My oh my, how life changes

I have not been on my blog since the beginning of school year and now we are about to be at the end!! It is amazing how working full-time can suck the life out of you. But, I now am a broke-at-home Mom...I mean stay-at-home-Mom so I have to have my outlets or I go crazy...hence my attempt at getting back to blogging. I always feel better if I blog rather than sit and read other people's blogs for hours at a time until I am cross-eyed and Sophia is pretending she has a broken leg just to get my attention. I want to write a novel, but the pregnancy has left me with only two brain cells in which to work with, so that will just have to wait. So, hopefully the three of you out there that read my blog, including you Mom, will appreciate that I have returned. Here is how I look now.....no, that is not one too many slices of cheesecake!
