You are awesome. And I’m not just saying that because you spent all weekend taking care of things around the house (dragging branches {after chopping down a tree-weed}, getting plants from the neighbors, digging, pruning, watering, cleaning, etc.). Nor am I saying it because you showered me with kisses and love ALL day yesterday (along [...]  I like to think I’m an organized and some-what disciplined person. But the reality is, I often procrastinate. Not on things that I have to do. For some reason I have no problem getting stuff done when there is no choice. I mean, in college, I finished papers up weeks ahead of schedule and never [...] For the few of you that are familiar with my previous blog (Bolsa Chica, named after my etsy shop), I used to do a weekly post on Tuesdays called “Things I Like Tuesdays.” It was a fun way to brighten up a dark spot in my work week. Now that I’m home full time, weekdays [...] There is no particular significance to today’s date. No anniversaries, first dates, birthdays, or holidays. It’s just a day like any other. And yet for some reason today feels special. Not because it’s different. It feels special because it’s like a thousand other days that I will probably never remember. In that way, it is [...] Woohoo! I completed block #15 for the Block-a-palooza. Just one more to go. I really like the pattern on this block. I think an entire quilt made out of this block would be amazing. But maybe that’s just me and my love for pinwheels talking! On an entirely different note, I’ve been reading My [...] Well, folks, it’s been another busy week around these parts. It seems like everyone I talk to is feeling overwhelmed with all there is to do. I guess that’s January for you. I’ve had so many half-formed blogs in my head, but just can’t get them typed out. Maybe bullet-points would be easier? :: snow:: [...] Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep. Rom. 12:15 I think this is one of the hardest commands in Scripture. I mean, I don’t particularly feel compelled to murder or steal, so those are easy commands for me to obey. But this one, it’s a lot harder for me to live out. [...] I love my family history. I’m sure most people feel this way, but I think my family’s history is the best. For instance: I’m related to George Washington. I also have a member of the British royal family who was disinherited for loving a common person in my ancestry. I’m related to someone named Reed [...] Ideals. Goals. Lists. Plans. This is where I want to be. What I daydream about getting done. What I expect from myself . . . and then life happens. So often it gets in the way of my dream life. In my ideal world I: cook every meal everyday, planning ahead so I always have enough [...] I’ve had a lot on my mind lately. I can’t really articulate it super well, so let’s try bullet points, shall we? :: True Love. It’s a crazy hard thing to live out. I sometimes feel like love shouldn’t feel like a sacrifice. Like it’s hypocritical to say I love someone when it takes every [...] |
