Good Conversations

Rose was an hour late for school today because I fell asleep and didn't hear the alarm go off but otherwise it was another gorgeous day in Denton town! I absolutely love this time of year. If I could, I would be outside all day long. Maybe I should take a blanket to the park tomorrow and just sleep there. How glorious!

Oh my goodness, even though I cut my workout short yesterday I am so sore today! My legs!! But I powered through and completed todays workout which was 100 high knees, 100 lunge kicks (50 on each leg) using weight, 100 more high knees, 100 squats using weight, 100 MORE high knees (by this time I thought my muscles were going to burst through my skin because they were burning so bad!), 25 straight abs sit-ups, 50 V abs (25 on each side), and 25 bicycle abs. Wowza. I felt amazing afterwards...kind of like I might fall over when I walked...but I had a great sense of accomplishment. I've also noticed some nice toning happening thanks to all of these workouts and thanks to the Amino Acid supplement I'm taking. It's ridiculously wonderful!

I was definitely feeling thankful for the small things today, like conversations. For the last year and half that I've lived in Denton I've had my head buried in school work and haven't had much time to reach out and make friends. The last three months have been great because not only have I friended a couple moms that have girls in Rose's ballet class but I've also found a great small group. I'm telling you; if you don't have a community of people to fellowship with then you're missing out. Tonight at homegroup we were studying Galatians 3 and I was completely encouraged while talking about the freedom that we have in Christ. I'm thankful that my hope isn't found in a set of rules that I have to follow but instead it's found in a God who has invited me to be part of His chosen people. Breaking out into small discussion groups was such a blessing as well. I was able to verbalize a lot of the things that I've been thinking lately and it felt so good! It's nice to get thoughts out of your head and out into the open. I also loved hearing exciting things and prayer needs from the other girls.

Mayne! Today was the bomb.com

It's my last night at work for the week and i am so thrilled. I only work four nights a week but they always seem like such long weeks. At least tonight I can catch up on New Girl which is my new FAVORITE show. I don't think i've ever laughed so hard at a television show. This is my favorite clip:

 Suppress the Jess... I can relate to that.
