Cloud Nine


Last night I went with some friends to a concert. We spent almost 4 hours at the American Airlines Center in Dallas listening to Daughtery and Bon Jovi! What a blast!

I love Daughtery. They are a great band with great music. I think it is another wonderful example of how American Idol is doing a great job of finding talent and these folks are entering into the music world. Daughtery being a Christian band under a secular label and doing so well is icing on the cake. Plus, to tour with one of the legends...Bon Jovi!

So let me talk a little about my night with Bon Jovi. I have enjoyed his music for almost 20 years. As soon as the Lost Highway CD was released, I bought it that day. I think he is very talented, extremely good looking and a genuinely nice man.

But...ladies (since I will only be talking to ladies here...unless you are gay) this man is HOT! (yes, my husband knows that I think this!) I think he has gotten better with age. If I ever swooned, last night would have been it. His voice was perfect, his song line up was perfect, the band was rocking, and he was such a flirt. He did select one beautiful young lady out of the audience to dance with him during Bed of Roses. All the rest of us watched in absolute jealousy as she nuzzled his neck with her arms around his perfect shoulders - and then he kissed her right on the lips! All of the women around me (myself included) melted, we were like a bunch of young teenagers. How fun it was to loose ourselves in the fun of watching this music legend, this sex symbol that attracts generations of women, sing and dance and entertain us.

What a night. I am still on cloud nine, my head swimming with the music and the beauty of this gorgeous man. When I go home tonight, I will ask my husband to serenade me with a few Bon Jovi songs...lucky for me he will do it...and that will do it for me! I will fall in love with my perfect husband all over again, but today...my head is filled with memories of last night.

I Got A Feeling....

that this is gonna be a good, good year!!!!!! I have great expectations! And I don't make New Year's Resolutions, but I do like goals. And prayers. I know God will answer prayers, and there are a few that I look forward to seeing the answer to, hopefully in 2010. It would be great if love and peace and forgiveness would win out in a few broken relationships. I am still praying. And I am look forward to how my marriage will become more wonderful, as it does every year! My health should improve since I am training for a triathlon. I lost 23 pounds in 2009. I look forward to losing about 15 to 20 more. Completing the Caveman triathlon with a couple of my very good friends is a goal that I am excited to achieve! It is going to be fun to see what God is going to do because I said "yes" to Him and stepped up into Home Group leadership with my church. And my church.... I have to say I am amazed and thrilled to love my church! What a blessing after so many years of being a s...

Gone

A fire burns behind me I run to keep ahead Those who I once cared for becoming cold and dead Red and black the flames grow high Smoke rises in the air The pain of my unworthiness Seems more than I can bear In front of me I see the sun I long to feel it's heat The iciness inside my heart has paralyzed my feet I see the moon, I see the stars They swirl and dance for me I see the hole, the big dark hole Where one star used to be

Behind Those Eyes - Chapter 8

We are completely loved and accepted completely. That is the chapter title this week and it is such good news! It is news that I have heard before, but news that I was glad to hear again. Lisa's story at the end of the chapter touched my heart...you know, the one where she woke up the morning after her prayer asking God to let her know that they were okay. The song in her head, that really was in her heart is awesome. I have had those times. Recently, I have had quite a few. The last few months (years maybe?) have been a little difficult. Some days I have wondered, "Does He REALLY love me?" And then some sort of confirmation will come along, He will let me know that we are okay and my heart sings. His love is gentle. His love is perfect. His love is comforting. And his love is absolutely unconditional. My blog time is shortened this week due the death in my family. My post is short, but honest and heartfelt. This week, I had a couple of conversations with a good...
