G.I.S.T

Ok...I really can't get it together here. All you G.I.S.T peeps out there, you can vote me out if you want, I deserve it. BUT....until the voting is final I will carry on my G.I.S.T. until further notice.

1. My massage today. Jordan had the great idea of me doing more things for myself, so I did! I had the best hot stone massage about an hour ago and I loved it!

2. Sleeping in. Enough said.

3. Having lunch with Chelsea today. I don't really get to spend enough time with her.

4. Knowing our church is paid for. *sigh of relief* It is finally all coming together.

5. I only have $256 more dollars to pay on my dress! The alterations are going to be out of this world though.

6. I got the money order today to pay the deposit on our house! I can't wait to:
a) live in a house
b) see more of Hunny
c) have a yard for the puppies
d) live down the street from Julie
e) have cheaper rent
f) see more of Hunny
g) have more space to live in (this 1 bedroom is very limiting)
h) have Jacob around more to make me laugh
i) have a back porch to have get togethers on
j) see more of Hunny.

As you can tell by the above list, we made a good decision by finding a house.

G.I.S.T

Ok....so I am already behind. In my defense....I'm busy!!! I need to keep up.

1. We finally found a house to live in! Wanna know the best part? Its right down the street from Julie! Yay!

2. Going back to work. I love my time off work but I never mind going back. I loves my job!

3. That feeling you get when you first lay down in bed at night.....ahhhh comfort. I love it.

4. Having the "serious talk" with Jordan last night. Over time it seems like we drift apart. I'm happy to know we have always been on the same page.....busy, but always on the same page.

5. Talking to Skylar and Joey today on Skylar's birthday. I can't believe she is already ten! Where does the time go?

G.I.S.T

1. Holding my first staff meeting all by myself today!

2. Going to see Julie's new house today. I'm so excited for them!

3. Knowing I have nothing to do tomorrow!

G.I.S.T

Ok...so I missed a day. Not because I found nothing, I was super busy and just wanted to go to bed.

But....here are my blessings for the day.

1. Dinner actually coming out good. It was great!

2. I L-O-V-E my job.

3. Jordan and I were sitting around tonight and I leaned over and smelled him. I love that smell!

G. I. S. T. January 6th

1. Samantha coming into work to help me.

2. Hunny helping me with work I had to bring home with me. He is sweet and loveable.

3. The hectic nature of my job. Although it stresses me to no end sometimes, I wouldn't trade it for the world. I feel very lucky to have a great job.

4. Trevor laying in my lap before bed.

5. Gabby's pumpkin pie with cool whip....mmm mmm good!


Sometimes the little things in life do make you the happiest! What more could I ask for!?!?

G. I. S.T. January 5th

1. Julie's hysterical story about the mouse....love it!

2. Beckie sending me an e-mail about how Joey landed himself in the principal's office even though he did nothing wrong.

3. That moment when I finally laid down in bed and realized my crazy, yet fulfilling, day was over.

G.I.S.T 2:365

1. Hanging out with Jordan today. Oh how I love him.

2. Washing laundry all the while singing the "I'm gonna have clean sheets" song.

These are my blessings for the day!

G.I.S.T 1:365

So....my friend Julie is doing this thing on her blog so I am doing it on mine. I think it is neat and I am hoping it will help me to be more positive about the little things in life.

Here is the deal.....it is called Gifts In Small Things. I have jumped on the band wagon fashionably late, so I am starting on January 3rd. One should pick out something in each day from which they have been blessed and tell about it. I think it will be fun.....so here goes.

1. Going to work. I love my job! I enjoyed going in to work today (on my day off) just to catch up on missed work over the holidays.

2. Finding a great sale at Hobby Lobby. Oh My WORD!!!!! Thanks to one Mrs. Julie Wittie, I was informed of 66% off of decor at Hobby Lobby. I had the opportunity to cash in on 50% off wall decor, 66% off of home decor and 80% off of Christmas decorations. Although a carrot nose or two was broken off of the snow men, I caught a great deal.

3. Cooking dinner for Hunny. (man he hates that) Jordan and I have been together for almost a year and he has yet to get a decent meal out of me. I decided I am going to learn how to cook now that I have a little more time to myself after graduation. Tonight I made pepper-lime chicken with seasoned potatoes and salad. It was great, Jacob and Trejo confirmed.

These are my blessings for the day.

I can't guarantee I will be able to keep up with every single day of this, but I am going to give it my all.

Happy blogging!!
