Things I Am Loving This Week

I may have been a little overambitious last week when I pumped out 4 (FOUR) blog posts for y’all and I was also starting school at the same time.

There is something about an extra tough week that makes the overachiever in me want to succeed and prove to the world that I CAN WORK FULL TIME AND BLOG, TOO.

I don’t know if you happened to notice that this week –

Crickets.

🙂

Feeling a bit humbled over here.

But there are a few other things besides my job and kids that have been distracting me this week…

THIS BOOK

Every once in awhile I like to take a break from reading informative parenting/mothering books and simply enjoy something that doesn’t require any heavy thinking/processing on my part.  Melanie Shankle’s writing is so fun and easy to read.  This latest book of hers about friendship is hilarious!

THIS SHOW

Have you guys seen this show?!  It’s called The Carbonaro Effect and holy cow, the hubs and I are completely hooked.  Every episode we are like hitting each other and going, “HOW DID HE DO THAT?!”  It’s astonishing!  Plus, the reactions of the people he plays his tricks on are absolutely priceless.

THIS CD

I am not even kidding when I tell you that Bryan and Katie Torwalt are my new obsession.  Katie’s voice is out of this world amazing.  But the thing I like most about their music is that the lyrics are so full of LIFE.  I don’t know about you, but putting songs like these on my lips is a great way to STAY FOCUSED.

THIS MIRACLE

Y’all!  IT IS FINISHED. The joy in my heart literally KNOWS NO BOUNDS. Thank you all for sharing your resources with me – even more than the precious and generous financial contributions, the support that you have shown me here has encouraged my heart to keep on pursuing ways to use my gifts to point others to Christ.

In just ONE MONTH and through only 150 people, God has given me the most incredible blessing.  I pray that you will know how thankful I am for you and that the Lord’s favor and kindness would just be poured out on your lives!  And I pray that as my new site (which we have already started work on and let me tell you – WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!) and my soon-to-be-released eBook (more on that to come!!) will somehow be used by Him to bless you in return.  Thank you for everything!!  To GOD be the glory!

I hope you are all having a wonderful week.  I do have some posts in the works that I will hopefully get out to you before Halloween.

Ha!
