Bloggin'
Wow! It’s been a while since I’ve blogged. I know Jen is the only one who looks at this thing…so Jen, here is what I’ve been up to. I’m at work right now and Janna is helping someone with booking a trip. I like this job a lot…but I will need to find a new one soon! Chris does two nights a week at pinecreek camp so i’m all alone, all alone. I hate it. But...

cold shower
Not because I wanted to, but because I had to. I went running last night with Natalie and then we went to Golden Spoon with our SCV small group (Mango yogurt…mmmm) and when I got home Molly, Chandra, Rae and I just sat up and chatted about girly things…lingerie, new jobs, getting married, shaving…stuff like that. All that say, I was so tired that I just went to bed in my running...
Comment...
away…now you can make comments on all my pictures of post its and shrimp! you are lucky, secret readers. very lucky.
“It is because of hasty and superficial conversation with God that the sense of sin is so weak and that no motives have power to help you to hate and flee from sin as you should.” A. W. Tozer ”Christ is not valued at all unless He is valued above all.” I think sometimes our problem is that we listen to our own thoughts, concerns, worries, fears more than we tell...
A Conversation with Chris
We got coffee this morning at Peet’s (our fave coffee place) and there was a sign out front that advertised their new Malawi coffee… Chris: mAlawI? (I’m trying to show how he pronounced it) Becky: It’s Malawi. (pronounced correctly) Chris: Don’t act like you’re all Hawaiin…like you know everything about Hawaii. Becky: Malawi is in Africa Chris. Chris: oh....
A New Discovery
And that discovery is Diet Coke. I know that all I have to do is google “Diet Coke” and I can find plenty of reasons to not drink this delectable 0 calorie treat, but I choose to remain ignorant and enjoy my bliss.
29 days

Moving
This is the week that I start to pack!! There’s something about packing that I like. I like it when I have the time and plenty of boxes…but when I have only a few hours here and a few hours there I don’t really like it because then I just make messes everywhere. If anyone knows where to get more hours in the day at a good price, please email merous5@yahoo.com.
the truth is...
…raw almonds simply aren’t as good as roasted.
And...
This is the part of the day where I don’t want to be doing this work any longer and I start looking for other things to fill my time. Ah! Sometimes I forget that I have to be faithful…even when that means submitting to the call of the file room.

Day 4....
…of this cleanse, and going strong. I really love it actually. Tons of energy, smoothie for breakfast, but I am tired of raw carrots for dinner. Tomorrow I get to eat cooked things.
Hunger + Really Godly Fiancee = Groceries
I’m doing this thing that I consider fairly awful, but some say my insides are thanking me…I’m cleansing for two weeks. Basically, that means I take herbal pills full of mysterious apothecary-inspired voodoo herbs that cleanse my colon, liver, heart, lungs, kidneys, etc. etc. It also means that I eat strictly raw foods for two weeks! But I’m cheating and only eating raw...
Joyful Singing
The Lord your God in the midst of you is mighty; He will save, He will rejoice over you with joy; He will rest in His love, He will rejoice over you with singing. Zeph. 3:17 What an amazing thought! I can’t believe that God rejoices in us like he does. He is mighty. He will save, then rejoice, then rest…and He rests in His own perfect love. He rejoices over me (ungodly, hateful,...

He Thinks of Us!
I’ve been reading this book by John MacDuff called “The Thoughts of God”…and boy is it good. He talks about the thoughts that God has toward us. Seeing that I am a very selfish girl, I wasn’t sure if meditating on how great God thinks I am would be the best thing for me…but it has bee incredibly humbling. To think that such a great and awesome God would think about such a small and wicked girl is...
