I had seen a post on FB about a ladies Bible study group starting and so I went and checked it out! I am really looking forward to this. There are ladies from all walks of life and we are all on a different level on our spiritual journey. I'm looking forward to knowing more ladies and developing more friendships with other women.
On another note, I really need prayer for a certain area in my life I am really struggling with!! That would be my weight!! I have gained so much weight over the past few years. It's a battle and one I don't know how to fight it. I'll exercise for awhile and eat "better" some days, but then it wears off. I can't fit into anything and it's discouraging. I blame no one but myself. I eat horribly and if I walk a block, I'm doing good. As you all know, I am seriously addicted to Dr. Pepper and pb m&m's!! I don't snack on anything that's good for me. I need encouragement and if anyone is interested in holding me accountable, that's great! In all seriousness, I would like to join the WOW group (Workout for Women). It's not cheap and of course, it would require daily or every other day trips to town, plus finding someone to watch 2 kids! I have done this in the past and managed to lose 12lbs and 18 inches. The think I like about this program is that it's never crowded and the women don't judge you. So, all I can figure out at this point is that Dr. Pepper and the M&M company need to go out of business!!

WOW!!
This past week has been a whirlwind of emotions for me. I struggle with many different feelings. Lately I have been a very judgmental person and having lots of feelings of hurt and confusion. If I don't see something the same way another person does, then of course, that person is wrong! (Which we know isn't true). There are a few things weighing heavily on my heart and no matter how much I pray about it and truly seek God, I am more and more confused. Does anyone else ever feel that way? Sometimes I wish God would just smack me upside the head and say, "Listen, this is the way it is and you can't change it." Today when I had a free moment, I simply cried out to God and said "I don't understand." Literally sobbing and on my knees. Maybe the answer is plain as day and I'm just not receiving it. So, that's what's on my mind right now. Any input is greatly appreciated!

Didn't get much out of that!
Today was a MOPS day and I always look forward to them. It's a great time to catch up with friends and share what has been happening in our lives. Today we had a speaker talk about finances. BLAH!! My negative attitude was alive and present during her talk. It's not that she did a bad job, I am just someone who gets bored very easily listening about money. If she was handing it out, I would have been all ears! I am as stubborn as they come and don't want people telling me how to manage my money or what little there is of it. My husband does that job, WAY TOO WELL!! Ok, so I don't exactly listen to him, either. So, that's my rant of the day.
On a positive note, Kolby, Karson and I went to lunch after preschool/MOPS and then to JC to try and find a gift for my niece's upcoming b-day! Only had to get on Kolby once, so that was nice. Found a gift, also:) Hope she likes it.

For some reason, I felt like blogging!
Don't ask me why, but the urge to blog bit me today! I really have nothing special to say. I have been reading various people's blogs and always find them full of wit and wisdom. I have a feeling mine will be based on complaining, because that"s what I seem to do best!
