Soo this Sunday was Valentines Day... and even though I said that I hated this day, it's not really true! Its a day all about LOVE and I have a lot of people I love! Me and my roommate shalee, my sister Eleri, and then two of my friends that I can be CrAzY right along side with - -which I LOVE that!!
This year I woke up and made breakfast with my beautiful roommate Shalee! We didn't pull out all the stops on this morning... but it was good! We made pancakes (box mix) and cinnamon rolls (out of the can)! We decided that since our other two roommates were not home that we couldn't eat it all ourselves, nor did we want to! My strapping brother and our sweet friend Shalin joined us! We finished up just in time to make it to church to get a good seat! It was such a great worship! My heart was filled with joy! I love Phil Whickems' song "you are holy" .... you are holy, great and mighty, the moon and the stars declare who you are, I'm SOO unworthy and still you love me, forever my heart will sing of how great you are - great lyrics!! Anyways, my Valentines we beginning shape into a GREAT day!! The rest of the day consisted of making homemade noodles for chicken and noodles and watching the Olympics! I actually started to feel sick for awhile - but once my brother made chocolate no-bake cookies, any pain I was feeling just went right out the door! Something that did not go out the door, but instead in the door was a friend who needed to do their laundry.... waiting for that to get done was pretty interesting. Both of us had things to work on, but have you tried to work on something with the Olympics on in the background? Even on mute, it is still practically impossible! Then there are the periodic no-bake cookie runs! I ate about fifty of those cookies!! Yikes!!! Oh... but probably the coolest thing I got to see an upside down push-up!! Yep, your body is vertical against a wall and then you do push ups!! CrAZy!! Secretly, I want to be able to do it too! And to finish off my Valentines Day was a BIG "W" when my co-ed basketball won our game.. it was a nail biter at the end!
After realizing that I had eaten 50 no-bake cookies, I decided to start actually watching what I put into my body... soo since Monday, I have had NO cookies, candy, or desserts! ... actually I just realized that I had a rice crispy at bible study tonight.... but I'm trying to be more thoughtful when it comes to what I'm eating. I only get one body, so I might as well take care of it right??
I am looking forward to Saturday because I've planned for an intentional, productive, and fun day! Starting at 7:30 I'll be going to Radina's or Bluestem to get in the word and have some good me time! Then next will be working out (probably at the rec. because I think it is supposed to snow)... and then sit in the sauna for a few minutes - hopefully there won't be any half naked people in there this time! ha. Cross your fingers! And the rest of the day is to be decided.. maybe I'll paint! I don't know, I'll figure it out! Wish me luck!!
