For I am not ashamed...

...to admit that I very much look forward to my Thursday ritual of watching a chick flick and Friends DVDs while I clean house and do laundry.  Maybe my favorite thing ever!

True Story

You know you're exhausted when the toilet flushes automatically and your immediate response is, "Thank God!  I was way too tired to do that myself."

a little bit crazy

Raise your hand if you asked your department head if it would be okay for you to leave campus to go buy file folders because the ones you have available in the supply closet are an unsettling shade of blue.  Keep your hand up if you went to Target, were appalled by their prices, drove to Walmart, were appalled by their lack of quality, and retraced your route back to Target to pay the appalling price.  Thank you, Mom, for passing that trait right along!

If there were a children's book written about me, this would be it.  Hasta, my friends!

completely done

What reason have I to doubt
Why would I dwell in fear
When all I have known is grace
My future in Christ is clear

My sins have been paid in full
There's no condemnation here
I live in the good of this
My Father has brought me near
I'm leaving my fears behind me now

The old is gone, the new has come
What You complete is completely done
We're heirs with Christ, the victory won
What You complete is completely done

I don't know what lies ahead
What if I fail again
You are my confidence
You'll keep me to the end
I'm leaving my fears behind me now...

steppin' out

Getting ready for a night of boot scootin', and if I have as much fun as I expect to have, I'll be too exhausted to contribute to my blog post-dancing.  So, I'm going to go ahead and say I had oh so much fun and broke my previous records for number of dances total and number of consecutive dances.  Unfortunately, also on the list of projected broken records: the number of times I say, "I'm tired" and "My hip hurts!"

much needed night in

I may or may not have watched three hours of Friends episodes followed by You've Got Mail.  TGIF!
