The little things...

So i've decided in my 27 years of wisdom that sometimes it's the tiny little things that make us feel better about ourselves.

For instance....today I waxed my own eyebrows. Yes really I did them myself, but i've gotten pretty good at being able to tell how much to put on the stick and when to pull it off.

But it was like I got a complete make over.

Sure my hair still looks as crappy and flat as it did this morning....and we know being from New Hope that flat is equal to a sin.

I'm still the same fat butt that I was this morning and probably a little bigger after the oatmeal creme pie I just ate.

I'm still the same sorry person I was this morning when I woke up after being mean this past week to Brandon or as he put it...in a pissy mood.

I'm still the same lazy butt who hasn't cleaned out her car in a week, hasn't done her alternative assignment in her class because we didn't go because it snowed, and who's house looks like the welfare department would come and take her kids if she had any.

Nope, I'm still all those things, but somehow waxing my eyebrows made me feel better, neater, nicer, thinner, more energetic, prettier and just all around better.

Maybe I'll go shave my legs, that might do wonders...

P.S. I hope that one day the large group of unfortunate pictures of myself is a wedding present!

Time flies by....

When you are having fun, and thank God even sometimes when you are not. We are down to 110 days to go and things are getting crazy. On our plate we have the task of finding somewhere to live, the new youth ministry that we just took over, my grad school classes, wedding stuff (which includes addressing invitations), another ministry that I am apart of, and Brandon trying to not quit his job that he hates before May 3rd. So getting through this semester live and still engaged will be a huge task, but I have a feeling we'll make it work.
