Freeze Day

I like the chance to FREEZE! So, I’m lounging here at home and the kids are playing “Guess Who” together. Their school has been canceled today and tomorrow due to this freezing weather. It’s kind of a nice break. As in, a day that gives me permission or rather forces me to chill out…and it sure feels nice. I guess that means I can FINALLY blog a minute or two.

School

I’m well into the spring semester now at TX A&M Corpus Christi. I started out thinking I would tackle Pharmacology, Health Alterations, Anatomy & Physiology and A&P lab. Turns out, I had to dig deep for the courage to drop Pharmacology. It’s an ongoing checks and balances for me to maintain peace in my life with all the responsibilities I have as a wife, mommy, student and worship leader. And I often ask myself, “what makes you think you can do so many things at a given time?” The answer is because it’s who I am, I suppose. I don’t really know. I do know that I have to wrestle with myself at times until I do what I believe God wants me to do and not what I want to do. Turns out God is always right…and at this season of my life I’m finding it much easier to submit to His ways. His ways are what’s best for me every time.

Ok. Back to the school topic. After this semester, I have a couple more prerequisite classes till nursing program. I don’t plan on going to summer session since the kids will be off school and we wanna be beach bums having fun in the sun. Then I can go to the Fall session and hopefully be in nursing school by spring 2012. It seems so far away. Yet, I know the rewards of pacing myself; PEACE and FUN. Life will go by anyway, so it’s gotta be fun. Time for God…time for dates…time for playing with my kids, time for music and time with friends. I never know when I’m gonna croak over and die so I gotta have fun.. I just gotta ;)

I love me some good buttery popcorn.

Destination Pointe Church

I’m growing to love the people at Destination Pointe more and more each week. It’s rare to find such genuine people who really love God and want to serve Him. Bonus-> I’m not totally alone with the music lately. I have a great friend who has been adding her talent of keyboard. And hopefully, in this next week we will have a bass player. Drums are next! Thank God He lets me enjoy music still even though I’m in over my head with school.

Hmmmm.. Monsters Verses Aliens.. I haven’t seen this one before.

And along my journey I am making new friends. I love how God keeps giving me opportunities to love people and learn more and more about the dynamics of friendships as well as my own human frailties.

I hope I can come blog about a few of these soon.

That’s all for now. My lounging must come to an end so I can go back to living J

P.S. Please post comments and questions here so we can begin a dialogue ;)
