disappointed in myself!

Procrastination is NOT a virtue. I am having a hard time today getting down to business.
I have a project due for class tomorrow that hasn't been started and I work tomorrow so there is no time to do it then. Seriously what's my problem. I have done everything else but what I need to be doing. Including writing this blog post.... :-(

food for thought

The phrase: get your house in order does not literally mean clean it up.

~~~ start or continue communication with your spouse. It's used to relate to your relationship. In other words; clean up the relationship you have...

~ Put God first in your personal life and in your marriage
~ Have open communication
~ Don't get defensive with one another
~ Keep your voice tones low
~ Don't be condescending
~ Listen
~ Understand
~ Use "I feel" language
~ Fight fair
~ Spend time together

Just some of my thoughts...

Confirmation!

God is really working! At work yesterday I had an amazing conversation with a client, who just so happened to be a nurse. We started talking about health and fitness and I mentioned my desire to get back on track and meet some much needed health goals. Not only did she recommend an internal medicine physician for me but she gave me some great advise to ward-off diabetes, since both my mother and fathers, mother's have it.

To Do's:
- start watching my sugar in-take
- STOP eating fast food
- stear clear of FRIED foods
- no SODA (not hard at all b/c I don't drink it)
- make exercise a part of my life
- get some good sneakers (motivation purposes, if the idea of possibly have diabetes, hyper tension, or high cholestorel in future doesn't do it for you!)

A-MAZING!!!! 1 Timothy 4:7-9

uggg! i need to FOCUS

... truly and honestly I need to start focusing on my health. My food and exercise regimen have gone down the toilette and it's... oooh so sad.
I love how God works... I stumbled upon this website Faith and Health Connection its talks about spiritual fitness and how are body, mind, and spirit all work together. It's true, how strong can your spirituality be, if you can't go the distance when God is preparing you and seeing you through difficult times. Your body needs to be as fit as your mind and spirit.

1 Timothy 4:7-9 (NIV)
"Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives' tales; rather, train yourself to be godly. For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come. This is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance."

marriage 101:

Choose your battles wisely... let it settle in...

Battles not just with your spouse but also with family and friends. Living in victory means that not everyone will like you.

"It is to one's honor to avoid strife, but every fool is quick to quarrel. "
Proverbs 20:3

Verse of the Day!

"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for me."
Colossians 3:23 NIV

new outlook on LIFE!

Thanks cousin...
Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So LOVE the people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don't and BELIEVE that everything happens for a reason. If you have a CHANCE - take it. If it changes your LIFE - let it. Nobody said it would be easy... they just promised it would be WORTH it.

Thank You!

AMEN!!!
God is truly working... He's about to show out. Watch out now!!!! :)

Just feeling really blessed, I have a great husband, family, job, and friends. It's amazing what faith and belief in God will do for you.
