I Love Fall

October is wonderful and I love it. I love pumpkins and I love pumpkin lattes! I am desperately wanting the weather to cool down so it can feel like fall. In the next few days I am going to go to Oak Glen... hopefully snowline =) and I will be going to the pumpkin patch for the first time ever. I hope to pick out a beautiful pumpkin that I can carve! My house is all decorated with Halloween stuff... the cute kind, nothing scary. I love it. Another thing I love about fall are the colors. They are so warm and welcoming. Oh fall... you make my heart happy =) This fall I started a new tradition, watch a Christmas movie every day until Christmas is here and I plan to be done with all my Christmas gifts by November... mid November. I am doing pretty good so far. I am making them all this year so I needed to get them started real early. I am proud of myself. I will now be doing that every year. Also, my Christmas decorations get to go up pretty early. November 1st. The hubby does not understand that one, but he does not mind. Fall decor went up early so why can't the Christmas stuff get put up early. There is nothing wrong with that! Well my dear readers, I will write again real soon. I am going to be better about posting more because I have time and I can! Ta ta for now!

Just in case....

God's Timing

Have you ever just felt like your timing and God's timing are always just a little off? I have been feeling that A LOT lately. I know I am not alone in this, and I KNOW that God's timing is always right. I just can not seeme to get my mind around some of the current things that He has brought into my life. I won't explain them, for that would take far too long. I will just mention that the Lord is stretching me in ways He never has before. Thank you Lord for doing that. All the things He has brought into my life the past few months have brought up so many emotions and feelings. All I can do or say is it is all a huge blessing. I feel so honored that the Lord is blessing me and yet at the same time I feel so undeserving. He is so faithful and I am so doubtful. He is so trustworthy and I lack trust in Him. He is so understanding and all I can do is ask why? He knows the big picture and all I can do is think of today, right now. He is so calming and I forsake to know He is there. He is in complete control and I let myself spiral out of control. WOAH!!! Can I just say God is so good and He is good all the time. I am so thankful for all the lessons He has been teaching me and I look forward to growth that will come from His lessons =)




thanks for reading <3

So this is my very first time writing a Blog :) I must say that I am very excited to have this as an outlet to vent. Lately I have been feeling like I am doing a lot of listening and I am a great listener, but sometimes I want to do some talking. When I keep things bottled up inside I tend to get very flustered. Which as a result I don't feel well. That is exactly what happened today. I have had a lot going on the past few weeks and today was a result of me not slowing down. I am not 18 any more (like 23 is so old...;) and I definitely can not go out and stay up until the wee hours of the morning and then try to function on 4 hours of sleep or less! Just does not happen anymore! Luckily for me I work at an awesome Coffee Shop and have amazing friends :) I needed to come home and take care of me and so I did just that. My body needs some time to heal, but the rest I got today was much needed! A word to anyone reading, taking care of your body is so important. Get the proper rest you need, eat good food, and drink plenty of water.
