Randomness

January started out so great! Jason and I had made a resolution to get in better shape and we have! I feel better, I look better-I mean I feel like I look better anyway-not in a narcissistic sort of way...in a healthy sort of way. I was even being a better steward my time; working 7 hours a day, working out at the Y, fixing dinner, cleaning up after dinner, BLOGGING even! Then February came and I don't know what the heck happened. Right now I am sitting here with Jason watching absolutely nothing on TV and typing away while 2 Chihuahua’s are fighting for my attention when I should be cleaning and folding laundry. Oye.
In my defense, I am recovering from the knock-you-flat-on-your-hiney-how-can-it-be-so-hot-and-cold-in-here-at-the-same-time-I-never-want-to-eat-again flu. Ya'll, I just wanted to be knocked unconscious. Now, I just can't wait to go back to work tomorrow and get things back to normal. I am resolute once again! I promised Logan I would make him his favorite meal tomorrow-ENCHILADAS with yellow rice. Tomorrow's blog is sure to be a fiesta.
Why am I blogging now if I have no recipe to share you ask? Well, I'm not sure really. I have a few random unexpressed thoughts that keep turning over and over again in my mind so I have put the proverbial pen to paper and share:
1. I am so excited that I cannot concentrate because in 2 days my man and I will be heading south with my mom and dad. Baton Rouge-it's not the place I am so excited about, it's that there is a houseful of heaven in the midst of that city and I cannot wait to hug me some necks! AND hold me some of that 16 + pound Gage Maddox. (He’s hardly 2 months old).
2. I am scared to leave Lauren and Logan with their big sissy Leanna (it's okay, she's an adult), not because I'm scared to leave them with Leanna, she is lovely and wonderful, it's just that I'm afraid they won't get enough to eat or Lauren may need a little pep talk for a bad hair day or Logan may need a note excusing him for his latest tardy because he slept in. I am assured by my BFF (Son) that they will be in need of nothing. I think they will miss their momma.
3. Am I the only person in the congregation on Sunday morning that wants to raise my hand and ask a question? Today, I was so into the message and following along so well and then BAM I was utterly confused.
4. I had the Angry Whopper for lunch today (thanks, Dad) and thought it was actually hot.
5. For some reason I forgot to curl my eyelashes today and it was not a good thing.
6. I think I am going to "live blog" my road trip to 'Weeziana. Everyone needs to experience 14 hours in a car with Woody, Linda and Jason.
7. I heard a "love song" today that I would like to think is from my Eternal Valentine.

Why are you striving these days
Why are you trying to earn grace
Why are you crying
Let me lift up your face
Just don't turn away

Why are you looking for love
Why are you searching as if I'm not enough
To where will you go child
Tell me where will you run
To where will you run

And I'll be by your side
Wherever you fall
In the dead of night
Whenever you call
And please don't fight
These hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you

Look at these hands at my side
They swallowed the grave on that night
When I drank the world's sin
So I could carry you in
And give you life
I want to give you life

Cause I, I love you
I want you to know
That I, I love you
I'll never let you go

I hope the words fall on you and bless you like they did me!
Here's to Fiesta Enchilada Monday!
