Complete Randomness

I have not vowed like my good friend SB to blog more this year but since I can't be outdone by her...here is a list of enlightening facts about my current life!

1. I have not worked out in over a month and it is killing me. I hurt my knee back in December and it has kept me on the side line for almost a month now. A year ago it would have been a welcome reprieve from excising. Right now it is just a pain in my butt....or well knee!

2. Not working out = eating like crap. No excuses...I know, I know. But when you can't work out it kinda kills the motivation to eat right.

1 + 2 = 3 I have to get my crap together and just do it again. The tough/easy part comes from knowing that I know I can do it. Time to face my fears and just go do it again.

4. Please do not ask me when I am going to have a child, why I don't have children yet as though because I am 30 my baby making years are nearly up (have you seen the Duggar woman), or tell me to go make a baby like it's really that easy. I understand for some folks looking at the opposite sex works for them and they can pop out a kid, however, it doesn't work like that for me apparently. So...let me and the doctors handle it and when I do in fact get pregnant you will be the first to know...or probably not. I have a list and if you aren't a Mee-Maw or one of 5 other people you can read about it along with the rest of the free world on Facebook.

5. Brandon is doing great as a fire fighter and I am adjusting to my job as a single mom to 2 dogs every 3rd night of my life. The dogs are the only thing that keep me sane at night only because they bark like a bunch of wild things when someone comes near our house.

6. I am starting my Specialist in the summer. I have no kids..see #4 if you want to know when...so why not get another degree. I am doing it with 2 former co-workers and a current co-worker so I am hoping that my lack of discipline, motivation or responsibility will be kept in check by these 3. I have never had to take classes online before so this will be a change for me.

7. Our church is awesome. Really. Awesome. I love our church and love what God is doing through the people that make up Celebration. We have partnered with a town in Nicaragua and Brandon is leaving in March to go on a mission trip for a week to Jinotega, Nicaragua. I love that we will celebrate Lent starting in March with Ash Wednesday service. This service is one of my favorite services that we hold at our church. We close out Lent with Holy week with a Maundy Thursday service (foot washing basically...not my favorite service), Good Friday at the Cross, Sunrise on Easter and baptism during the regular Easter service. We love our small group made up of the Kendricks and Deatons (our marriage mentors.) We are also so excited that our sister (in-law) and 3 nieces are now attending Celebration with us!!

8. Cakes - I have a wedding cake to do in May. I am not going to lie when I say that I am nervous but I am also confident that with a great team of friends helping me it is going to be amazing!! Well that's what I am hoping for anyway.

And that's about it! You have now been caught up with the Peevys and our little world! Until next time.
