1 week makeover

It's amazing what a week and an attitude change can do for a person.    November is just around the corner and I couldn't be any happier (well, I could but that's besides the point).  I bought my plane ticket for Christmas and it's less than two months until I get to see my family!  Not being at work for five days is an added benefit that brings joy to my heart.

Basketball season is here and since it's just the beginning I can still focus on the Seahawks, Tom Brady & Trent Edwards while keeping tabs on the Jazz via my rents.   Then right after the Superbowl I'm all about the JAZZ.  (See how the sentence just flows together?)  "YOU GOTTA LOVE IT BABY!" - Hot Rod Hundley

Wednesday is the third night of our five week growth group series.  This week's topic is surrender and I have a feeling it will be the hardest one for me.  Outside of my involvement with Freedom Fest, I haven't done anything that makes me feel as passionate or useful in the 'Big Picture' since being on the Vineyard until I joined Eastlake.  I think the next four months will be interesting to look back on and see how letting go can actually be beneficial! (I figure if I say that enough I'll believe it!.... work with me... work with me.) 

'Til next time.... Happy is as Happy does.   

P.S. Howard... next Thanksgiving I vote you can make all the reservations.

Black & White

I like things that are black & white.  It's the grey things that always catch me off guard.  The messy in between - the undefined and hard to explain.  Black & white is simple.  Clear lines.  Easy to see. 

October brings a lot of grey skies in Seattle and rain.  And it's hard to see in the rain.  It poured and poured on Friday and I found myself cursing at a coworker.  And while he is a friend/peer my age I still used fowl (and when I saw fowl I really mean foul) language towards a Manager at my place of employment.  At the time I couldn't have cared less but I look back now and cringe at my actions.  I rarely use foul language - I hate the person I am when that happens.    I've hated every October I've spent here.  The grey clouds seem to coincide with rough patches in my life.   

I'm ready for November.....

Room to breathe

Don't give up on me.  I just need some room to breathe and a little time to think, to make sure I don't lose me.  I'll come around but change isn't always easy for me.  I just need some room to breathe.  Don't ask me any questions I just need a little time to think.  I need some room to beathe.
