Does Spell Check Work?

Honestly, I am not updating because I don't think of worthwhile things anymore. That's why I keep excusing myself for thinking and talking and writing about work. I feel bad that I don't have anything good to say. I fail as a good citizen.

I cooked my very first turkey (with the help and guidance and mostly just Shawana doing it all). It was still a proud moment(s).

I haven't run for like 3 and a half months. I hate that. I was going so strong... and then I lost all self discipline which I end up blaming someone else for. In fact, a somone that I will be spending Christmas with. Watch out Seattle... here I come.

I am house sitting now... does anyone else feel like I do this more than anyone you know? I know, it's nice.

I thought maybe after sitting here and typing I would think about something that would inspire, encourage, or challenge people... but it hasn't happened... So I am signing out. I will keep thinking and will be back when I am worth reading.

The Waitress

Waiting tables is all I actually talk about. Many times I have actually talked about B4 or T2 with my family/friends... seriously pathetic. Waitress jargon, I didn't know there was such a thing. I like the job and hate the customers... honestly I know this makes me a bad person, but I usually insult the customers in my head while smiling. Then I go in the back and tell my boss how much of an asshole they are. Nobody should ever go out to eat again... and don't piss off the wait staff... they will talk about you.

I am going back to school next quarter... and honestly I think the real world is easier. I am afraid of the stress level that comes home with you. I am afraid of not graduating and never amounting to anything. I am afraid of never making it to Europe, never running a Marathon, never going to the Peace Corps, and never doing anything other than waitress. People actually make fun of this low end job that traps many young/old women and some men. Here's hoping I amount to something.

Happy Birthday Amy Popp. I miss you more than words can describe.

My co-workers and I have formed a Bible study. It isn't anything much... but I am glad to relate to them on that level. It actually forms a team work attitude at work that isn't always there.

Ok. I'm gonna go now. Call me soon. I love you.
Bye Bye.

A Word About Self Worth

You know the identity in Christ studies that we have always done... they never do sink in do they?

WE ARE ALL PRECIOUS CHILDREN OF GOD.
WE ARE WORTH MORE THAN MANY SPARROWS.
THE HAIRS ON OUR HEADS ARE COUNTED.

No matter where in life you are... no matter who forgets you or never notices you... no matter if you have walked away from God or stopped practicing in your faith... no matter if you are addicted... no matter if you are sexually immoral...

Really come on... he was on the cross right?

Nothing else compares.
Everything pales in comparison.

Jesus loves you and so do I.

Feel the Grace.
