So he did it again. I got round 3 of flowers. He knew that this week was really busy and exhausting so he wanted to brighten my day with flowers. He is so amazing but I have to be honest this is the best thing that has ever happened in my life.
You know when you meet someone a friend, a dog, anyone and you know that this thing will have a huge effect on your life. That because of this person you are not the same person you were a day before you met him/or her. He is it. He has changed my life.
He has come into my life and I will never be the same. Regardless of whether or not we get married or whatever I am not the same girl. I am stronger, I am smarter, I am more kind, I want to make a difference in the world. I want him to be apart of my everyday.
He has taught me so much about selflessness and putting others first. His love for the Word and the Lord has rubbed off on me. I love this man. I know it. He loves me, he loves me for who I am and who God has made me. He loves the things I hate about myself.
This is the kind of love that has to change you.
So there is your blog post Megan!
That is it I am sold.
This boy is good. He gave me roses on our first date then today to surprise me to tell me he came home early he sent me a bouquet of my favorite flowers… daisies. The card read… Suprise!!! (and then lots of other sweet stuff) but I was not expecting him home till tonight and he came home last night but instead of calling me he waited and sent me flowers to my office and told me to call him once i had received the flowers.
He is so good to me.
Here is the thing. I like this guy. We have a great time together and we are kind of dating, (we go on dates and I like him and he likes me). That is really the end of the story.
He is great and kind. He is strong and gentle. I am really happy about it. In fact he just went to Costa Rica for the week and I have almost died. I can’t help it. I really miss him. This is so foreign to me, like actually wanting to be around someone so much. I am completely independent and have only done long distance relationships because I like my own space but now I can’t get enough of him. I want him around so much. This is odd. HELP I am becoming a girl
So I need a little blog-erapy (therapy) when you write about your feelings. I have been in this weird place spiritually. I have resented God for things that have happened in my life and I have allowed “sins” or actions that I am ashamed of to rule my life.
The thing about allowing these things to come into your life is that you never see them really until the “shit hits the fan” (sorry for the crudeness) but that is how I feel. You justify a bunch of little things until it comes to this huge mountain of problems in your life and you start making decisions from the wrong stand point instead of a well rounded good place. Now this can be used in almost any situation. Lets start with eating. I have justifiably let Diet Coke back into my life. Not a lot about 1 every few days, then about 1 a day but the other day I saw that I drank 2 in one day, and I almost had another one at dinner but I realized this huge lack of self control in my life. And this blog obviously is not coming from a heart wanting to turn away from Diet coke but really from the other sins I have allowed to rule my life.
Colossians 2: 16Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. 17These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ. 18Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you for the prize. Such a person goes into great detail about what he has seen, and his unspiritual mind puffs him up with idle notions. 19He has lost connection with the Head, from whom the whole body, supported and held together by its ligaments and sinews, grows as God causes it to grow.
my new car!
MY new car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Honestly I love the Hills and I just saw the trailor for season 3!
I love it. It is full of drama, and backstabbing and friendships being tested. I realize that I love this show because the drama is fun to watch. Now if you know me well enough you know my life really does not consist of drama. None. The most dramatic thing of my life this year was buying a new car and as you know that is stressful for anyone but still it was not real drama. I watch the hills for my drama fix and also because they challenge me to be fashion savy. It is like the sex and the city of LA except the girls are my age and there is no red head.
Speaking of red heads, I think I am going to go back dark. I love this blonde hair but I love love love my hair dark. I think it gives me more of an exotic look.
Dearest blog friends,
My Roxy has let me down.
That is right Roxy the Rio left me stranded on the turnpike. Monday night was filled with Jermaine and me trying everything possible to get it fixed.
It was a blessing because my roommate’s family was in from Lawton so they helped me yesterday by getting the car to the shop and meeting the tow truck guy.
But I really want to give some shout outs!
First to Jermaine for always being the boy I call in an emergency. Oh what a good friend.
Next to the Wiginton’s for helping me out yesterday and being so kind.
Also to the cute tow truck driver, Cody, for not charging me the extra miles for the tow. What a nice guy!
To the guys at Metric Motors for being so kind and great. Even though I am not going to use them they were really nice guys.
To ST, You are the best roommate’s boyfriend ever who, is letting borrow the car this week. What a great guy. But first i must say he is more than a roommate’s boyfriend. He has been my friend, also.
To Allen my coworker who picks me up for work! What a blessing. Seriously what would I do without him.
To John H. who told me the quote I got was Bull S#%* and now he is looking for a better quote for me and called me to make sure I was okay.
To Raina my roommate who has been a great support in this process.
To Megan and Tiffany who offered to help. Thanks girls!
What a great cloud of witness! Thank you!
So I have another title to add to my list…
Liz , daughter, sister, aunt, niece, friend, best friend, ex-barista, college graduate, marathon runner, believer, AT&T customer, Maddox’s mom, Marketing Events Coordinator and NOW….. Water aerobics instructor.
Well soon to be! My water aerobics instructor asked me yesterday if I would take over the class for her. Now here is a thing to know about me, I have expectations for myself. (now I know this is an issue and we can address this another time) but when I was going into my junior year of college I wrote out a list of things I wanted to accomplish. One was to wear a size small (achieved, no any more but I am getting closer), get straight A’s one semester in School (achieved), become a water aerobics instructor (no joke). This was such a fun thing to me and I wanted it so bad and as a life guard I had some necessary training already for it but now I can say I am (almost) a water aerobics instructor. I am getting certified soon because I need to take over the class in like a week. But I know I can do it!
Okay another side note… 7 days no Diet Coke or bad soda of any kind. I feel great!
Side note number 2… I am competing in a triathlon (blog to come).
Okay so I am on day three now.
I feel really great. I have had more energy and I have not had any headaches. I feel like my workouts and my attitude have increased in pleasurably.
Okay now for a real blog. I have a friend who only wants to do one thing. Let’s go to dinner and a movie. That is all she ever asks me to do. But she wants to do the most cliché things. Let’s go to dinner at Chili’s then go see the most boring chick flick and then go out to Starbucks for Frappacinos. Now I know sometimes that is the only thing to do but tonight I have invited her to a fun, recycle clothing fashion show. It would be cheaper than dinner and a movie plus it would be so much more fun. I have to say I love this girl but I want to do something new, fun with her.
I am just wondering about people’s personalities, and this might be a dumb question but are there two types of people in this world; the people who are stuck in a rut and the people who hate ruts?
Do you remember that Teen movie where I guy tries to go some allotted amount of time without sex? I am going to try a new spin on things. The Liz version but before you get scared and worried about what the next sentence of this blog will contain, this is the G- rated version.
I am going to see how many days I can go without Diet Coke. Now I never saw that teen movie so I am not sure how addicted him was to his “vice” but I am not that addicted to Diet Coke.
But I will confess that last week I think I drank maybe one gallon of water for the whole week which is not enough but in replacement to not drinking water I was drinking Diet Coke. (I think I drank about 4 a day last week… that is really intense) and that was the hardest week at work.
I just enjoy Diet Coke but this week I have had one each day and I have begun to realize that my work day goes much faster. I have more energy and I can focus more. Now I know that you can’t blame D.C. for those things but I am going to conduct a little experiment. See how my body reacts to no D. C.
A little Disclaimer: In college, I did not drink soda at all for an entire year. I was in the best shape of my life. I ran marathons and worked out at least 8 times a week (twice a day two of those days and one day off). Now my life consist of 30 lbs more fat on my body and only working out 2 days a week and no marathons in the near future.
So in a way of trying to see if D.C. really makes you gain weight I am getting off of it and replacing it will my addiction to water. Now this is an addiction that has stemmed from my days in college when I was frantically trying to loss weight and be a size 0. I realize that is not a dream of mine anymore but I do still have this love affair with water, I drink about 100 oz a day at least. (I pee a lot).
So anyway this is day one.
