Project 365 Week 25

Week 25!

Monday, November 2
It was my friend, Tricia's, birthday.
We went to dinner at one of my favorite restaurants!
Sadly, it will be our last time to eat here because it is closing! The beach theme seems to be seasonal in Texas. They have an outdoor eating space that was really popular in warm weather, but they could not maintain solid business in the winter months!
What a bummer!

Tuesday, November 3
My favorite spot at the local mall.

Wednesday, November 4
After a solid month of rain, it is so nice to see the sun shine through these trees in my front yard!

And wonderful to see the sun shine across my front porch!

Thursday, November 5
Surprise visitors for dinner!
My son, Aaron - who would not give a real smile for the photo (being silly, not mean) and his friend, Larry. Larry has spent the night in my house several times, but I have never had the opportunity to speak to him. (I was asleep when he came and he was asleep when I left)
We had dinner together on Thursday before my pottery class.
What a pleasant surprise!

Friday, November 6
Senior Night at FMHS
Our best friends, Dan & Lori, and their senior son, Steven.
Wow!
Our last football game together...it was sort of sad and happy at the same time!

Saturday, November 7
Months ago, I began a collage that was to represent my life.
I didn't finish it at the time, but I took time this afternoon to complete it!
I love it.
I hung it in my bathroom (I know, seems odd...but I like it)
to remind myself of blessings and goals.

Sunday, November 8
This is what it looks like every week when my husband and I attend worship services at
The Village Church.
We, The Village Church, are about ready to move into our new building.
I wanted to capture one of the last weekends that we will worship here.
This building has a lot of special meaning in my life.

Hope your week was as blessed as mine!

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...
