Wow things just got rocked here in our house! I am excited and nervous all at the same time!
I am trusting God to lead us in the right direction and to guide us. I just pray that we will make the right decisions at the right time. I pray that God will guide us at exactly the right time.
Please guide us and lead us father. Show us when to move and when to be still.

The Red Pump Project
Ok ladies (and guys too!) it is a sad, scary fact that every 35 minutes a woman in the US tests positive for HIV. That's why I'm using this post to spread the word about the Rock the Red Pump Project! On March 10th 2012 wear your red pumps to show your support. If you want to check out more info visit http://www.theredpumpproject.org/
You guys should really check it out!
Hope you join me in praying for these women and girls as well as showing off those wonderfully red pumps (or any red shoes really) to show your support for such a GREAT cause!

Ministering to Webber
Well, we are (and by we I mean a few of the church members) are thinking of trying to get the church to minister to the Webber kids. I got some great ideas from some of the ladies on the Facebook page and I am really excited to present these ideas to the board and get the ball rolling on this.
The ideas the ladies had were: gift cards to a specific place like a restaurant, toilet paper, laundry supplies and various food items.
I also REALLY want to start a Beth Moore study again. I really feel like I grew SO much when I was studying her with the girls at FCC and even the week that I went to 1st Christian Kissimmee. I just feel like I am doing so much and wearing so many hats right now that I don't even get to enjoy the worship time I have at church. Besides that, I struggle with connecting to the music which is a big thing for me in worship. I don't know. I know that I can grow if I want to.
I am sad that I don't have the same advantages I had when I was in college. I was in the word every day simply because of my classes. Now it feels like I really have to struggle to get all my work done in the time that I am given let alone to spend time in the word and in communion with God.
I am SO thankful for a job and to be married to my best friend and to have a house to live in and dogs to love I just have to focus on becoming a better manager of my time.

Life
Well, I gave my husband food poisoning. I attempted making a copy cat Chick-fil-a fried chicken recipe I found on Pinterest the other day. The recipe said to pound the chicken to 1/8th of an inch thick. Well, silly me, I figured that Chick-fil-a doesn't make their chicken super thin so neither will I. While he was eating it he discovered it wasn't cooked all the way and he has been sick all day. :( I feel awful!
In other news I LOVE teaching and am SUPER excited about officially starting all on my own tomorrow but at the same time I am nervous. I mean, I have to keep these kids under control and remember all the things I have to remember. I have to send all the notes home and teach them all the facts they need in order to pass the FCAT. I need to keep them engaged and learning.
And at the same time, sometimes I miss college. I mean, yes, I LOVE being married and I LOVE being done with school and out of FCC but sometimes I wish I was still in school. I feel like I had so much more energy when I was in college as opposed to now. When I was in college even if I had early morning classes I could come back and go to sleep or skip something to catch up on something else. Now that the real world has hit I can't do that. I am at work from 7:30-3:15 five days a week. I can't take a nap when I am tired or skip a certain class because I am too tired to go. Then when I get home there is dinner to cook and things to clean and other things to get ready for the next day of teaching.
Like I said, I LOVE being out of college it is just hard at times.

EEKK!
I got my member ID today for Comic-Con. That isn't the same thing as a badge which is what is required to get in but every person that wants to try to get a badge has to have a Member ID to get one.
I also miserably failed at the no caffeine rule for myself. I want to get a goods night sleep and not be so tired all the time but at the same time I also think you only live once. I'm not going to do anything crazy like drugs because I only live once but a little soda and junk food won't kill me. Who cares if I have to go up a size in pants I'm still a healthy weight and body build. It is what it is and that's that.

No Caffeine
I have decided today to give up the caffeine. It keeps me up at night an doesn't let me get a good nights sleep. It also makes me tired during the day when I have no reason to be so tired. But man I gotta tell ya, it's only been a few hours and my head is already starting to hurt. I know it is a good thing because that means that my body is detoxing all the CRAZY amounts of caffeine that I had put in it over the past few years in college. I am just afraid of how I am going to feel tomorrow. How bad will my head be? Will I be able to stick it out or will I give into the pain? I hope I won't. I know I have tried this before and it has been bad. I've been cranky and my head has felt like it was going to explode and I literally felt like I was sick (fever nauseous etc.). Here's to stickin it out!

Comic-Con
O.K so I've been looking at this Comic-Con stuff and I'm starting to get excited! I hope we can get in!

Comic Con
Well, it's official. I married a NERD! I gave the Theologian a xbox 360 and Kinnect for Christmas. He bought Halo for himself and has been playing it again. Then Thursday he mentions that he wants a Master Chief suit. He starts looking around for one and finds a guy to make him one. Then he says we should go to Comic Con. So, we are in the process of looking into how much we have to save to go to Comic Con in July. I am going to try to put together a Cortona outfit. It's in San Diego so that should be a nice little vacation for us. And San Diego sounds beautiful. I'll be going to California! That's exciting!
This should be fun!

GRRRRR!!!!!
I am just so utterly beyond heartbroken right now. Words can't describe what I am feeling accurately. I literally feel like giving up or screaming and punching someone in the face or maybe even a more tender place.
I know in the end it will turn out that it is better the way it is. And that God is in control and he will make all things right in his time. But to just have found out an hour a go I am still steaming mad!
