new thing...

So, my good friend and mentor Ashlee does this thing on her blog here that has been a real blessing to me so I am going to start doing the same thing I think. I'll probably add more random blogs in between but all in all I think it is a good practice and I'd like to start doing it too...she started out with a challenge. She decided she would write 100 things that she was thankful for and after the 100 things...she just kept going! Not only does it still continue to tell what's going on in her life, it also shows that God is with her through everything...FANTASTIC. So, here I go...things I'm thankful for today.

001-I'm thankful for Ashlee. She is always there for me even though I'm pretty selfish when it comes to our relationship. She pushes me on toward the upward call when I don't feel like pushing myself. [Phil 3:13-14]

002-For God showing me what it's like to be in a relationship that is not based on attractiveness or how successful the other person is but is securely focused on God. It's different, but I definitely like it.

003-For my Granny. She's the one person I can call anytime and just say absolutely everything that's on my mind and she just lets me talk. It's fantastic.

004-A lady from my church and I are going to start meeting weekly so that she can be my prayer mentor. Praise God for letting her approach me about it where I was unsure of how to go about starting a mentoring relationship with a more mature christian woman.

005-I'm thankful for my bed. It is so comfortable. I sometimes wish I could just sleep all day long because I'd just be comfortable forever.

006-Catherine got me some twilight chocolates for Valentines Day and we went to see Percy Jackson...I guess you could call it a date. She makes me laugh. It's great.

007-I just was introduced to these guys on youtube that are just hilarious. Check out this video...one of many...

008-I got a plant today. It's a Croton and now sits in his own little ivory ceramic planter next to the window. I hope to get a planter at the ceramic fundraiser for him that will be more fun but for now...his name is Cornelius and he likes the sun. Come say hi. :)

That's it I think for now.
