Being a perfectionist and being meticulous is not always the most helpful when it comes to work.  ;)

waiting for eternity

i cannot wait for eternity because then i can actually do the work i want to do - all the time!
I’ve come to terms with the fact that I will never have enough “time” this side of eternity. That’s why I’m thrilled that I have all of eternity to continue doing the things I love [...]

what’s procrastination?

i blog best when deadlines are looming.
though i cannot say today is a “best” blogging day.  i’m not caving into my great temptation to write like a mad woman on anything but the tasks at hand.  i’m just occasionally writing snippets.

i have a full weekend ahead of me.

i think we should have three day weekends.

here, there, everywhere

i have brilliant friends; whether they know this or not doesn’t really matter - but after exchanging ideas with them, especially in the areas i’m supposedly “good at” i feel like an idiot.  *grin*
someone had better not be praying for humility for me.  ;p  that’s all i can say.  (whenever my mother does, i have [...]

come clean the shadows…

 One of my constant prayers.
Come clean the shadows in the closets of my soul
You are the Light to come and show
All of the empty places and the darkened rooms
I cannot hide from what You know
‘Cause Your truth is the light
So come and light me from the inside
Open me up
And let the healing begin [...]

la de da da

900 million thousand things to do and I just wanna play hooky today.  ;p
Going to make a pot of tea…had Jenni over last night and made some amazing brownies, which is especially incredible considering I had to modify almost every ingredient due to what I had on hand in my kitchen.  *grin*  They turned out [...]

this, that

I get off early today because I worked through lunch; hoping to go home and do some baking before a girlfriend comes over – mixing a little work with pleasure. =) Tomorrow’s a workday from home. Those days are bliss. I function best when left to myself. ;)

I’m currently [...]

peace on earth

Heaven on Earth, we need it now
I’m sick of all of this hanging around
Sick of sorrow, sick of the pain
I’m sick of hearing again and again
That there’s gonna be peace on Earth
Where I grew up there weren’t many trees
Where there was we’d tear them down
And use them on our enemies
They say that what [...]

numbed anger

This world is a sick, sick, sick place.
Lord, have mercy.  
Sometimes I wonder how much longer any of us can go on in the midst of the evil we face, personally and corporately - having to watch friends and loved ones go through hell.
I know I should be remembering the hope that I have as [...]

intuition

I’m a very intuitive person.
Extremely so.
Rarely am I wrong.  I will readily admit when and if I am, but especially when it comes to people, I usually can sense things very readily, both in just judging character and heart but also just within a relationship.  Is it a knack?  An ability I’ve honed?  A gift?  [...]

getting distracted from work

The risk of listening to music as you work is distraction.
Ever had a song come on and all your senses are demanded by it? And you lose yourself in it?
Uh huh.
Stevie Wonder’s “Pastime Paradise” = orgasmic.

They’ve been spending most their lives
Living in a pastime paradise
They’ve been spending most their lives
Living in a pastime paradise
They’ve [...]

richness

Have I mentioned I love life?
I’m feeling very loved at the moment. Not that feeling loved means I’m called to live my life any differently than I do - I’m called to always love and to give of myself as Jesus would, whether or not I receive back, but friendships are just so amazing. [...]

self-reflection on a cold february morn

Sometimes I wonder if I’m using my gifts to the best of my ability.
Today I randomly stumbled across this note I took in class one time when I was an undergraduate.
My professor worked for the New York Times for seven years, among a long list of other accomplishments in the writing field, including being on [...]

stuck in a moment

Have I mentioned I love life and U2?? ;)
You got yourself stuck in a moment and have to get out of it…
I wouldn’t mind staying stuck in this “moment” - at least for a week or so.

spring cleaning?

I’m on an organizing kick today; soooooooo super excited. Went out and bought a few (gorgeous, I might add) organizational pieces that were on sale (yay) and a paper shredder. I’m excited about the paper shredder. *grin* I’m rearranging my home office/bedroom space and thinking through how to maximize my space [...]

two becoming one

When does the “joining of two becoming one flesh” happen? At what point in a relationship? (Speaking of course within the Biblical context of “and the man shall leave his parents and cleave until his wife and the two shall become one flesh.”) Is it the minute you say “I do”? (And [...]

friday ramblings

I feel like I’m presently learning 900 things. It’s quite the time of life. *grin*
–
I’m thankful it’s Friday, though I’ll be working almost all weekend, so I’m not quite sure why I’m so excited that it’s Friday – perhaps because I don’t like sitting at a desk all day in an office? [...]
