I had my second ever migraine yesterday. It didn't suck nearly as bad as the last one. I rested and texted my mom to see if it really was a migraine, and laid on the couch. My husband cooked dinner. By the grace of God, for some reason I had already cut up all the … Continue reading 31 Post Challenge – Random

31 Post Challenge – You Can’t Out-Give God
My uncle was in PA this week visiting from Seattle. He wanted to see us, obviously, but he also had it in his mind to spoil us a bit. He took us out to eat, brought us Trader Joe's cookies, made us each get a slice of cake, filled up our gas tank, and had … Continue reading 31 Post Challenge – You Can’t Out-Give God

31 Post Challenge – Fall
I get really excited about the holidays in the fall. Summer is absolutely, hands down, no question my favorite season (shorts! the pool! not being cold! popsicles! grass!), but there's nothing wrong with fall. In fact, I've come to like it more and more the past couple of years. Maybe it has something to do … Continue reading 31 Post Challenge – Fall
Love the Earth: Reusable Bags
Loving the earth is something I'm passionate about. I've cared about the environment since I was a wee little one, writing "save the rainforest!" on my life goals in elementary school, and "helping the planet" as something I would do if I were in charge of the world. Now that I'm "all grown up," I've … Continue reading Love the Earth: Reusable Bags
31 Post Challenge – Exhausted
This posting-for-31-days-straight thing is not easy! I thought it would be challenging, but it is tougher than I thought it'd be. I won't give up though, because knowing I'm supposed to do it every day makes me do it at least every few days, so that's not too bad, eh? I confess that I've been … Continue reading 31 Post Challenge – Exhausted
Friday Things
These are things I like Facebook yard sales. Last week I sold four things, including tables we've been trying to get rid of for two years, and picked up $73. So much faster and easier than Craigslist, and I trust the general inquirer more, because they are mostly stay at home moms. Seeing God work. … Continue reading Friday Things
31 Post Challenge – Strength in Weakness
When I interned at Virginia Tech, I said that my biggest weakness was recruiting. It was the part of my job that I felt I did the most poorly. I didn't like inviting students to events, challenging them to go on spring break trips, or convincing them to do things. Now that I'm on staff … Continue reading 31 Post Challenge – Strength in Weakness
31 Post Challenge
This weekend was very autumn-esque. And rejuvenating. Last week Whit and I had stuff going on every night of the week, which was exhausting, so we planned to do very little during the weekend. Friday night we watched an insane amount of New Girl. Gosh, I love that show! Nick Miller, man. Nick Miller. Love … Continue reading 31 Post Challenge
31 Post Challenge – Friday Thoughts
I meant to post this yesterday, so let's just pretend I did. When I walked past the bedroom window I saw our cat sitting into the windowsill, waiting expectantly. I wasn't sure why she was hanging out in her daytime spot when she could be sitting close to her dad, who was somewhere inside. When … Continue reading 31 Post Challenge – Friday Thoughts
