I Found Them!

After centuries of looking and waiting………..lol, not really but it feels like it. I found my birthday shoes! They are the coolest, most awesomest (not a word, I know), sexiest shoes I’ve seen in a long time; and they called out to me! I was googling shoes with studs on them because I’m going for a rocker meets couture look (I’m designing my own dress); I saw the shoes and the rest is history…….They’re black leather studded round toe pumps by Dolce Vita. They’re only $225 so my mother won’t complain she’s getting faint when I mention the price. Fashionable and affordable; what more could a girl want?

So Much Work, So Little Time.....

So……I’m designing my dress for my birthday! Very, very excited about that! And the color scheme is Black & Silver. Originally I wanted Navy and Green because I love peacock feathers but my Youth Vice President pointed out that Silver represents 25 years (normally in anniversaries) so I changed the colors. I am checking out Brasserie 44 in Midtown as the spot to have the dinner. It is so awesome there! My main problem now is to create a guest list and figure out how to make sure I can get a place that’s not too pricey. Pray that I’m successful.

Pouting!

I’m back at work and so extremely tired. I don’t know why I didn’t take this day off as well. No point crying over spilt milk anyway. I still have a buzz from Elevate; I love it. I won’t compromise it for anything. My ex called me last night and pretty much talked about nothing at all (why am I not surprised). I feel the release, I don’t care for him like I used to; I hope he receives Christ though. Sigh…….Talk to you later; I have to plan my 25th Birthday Celebration! I’m sooooo excited!

All This & Heaven Too!

Elevate was an absolutely amazing experience! I feel amazing! It’s not the amazing high that will wear off but the feeling that my life will never and can never be the same. I know that some things and situations will not change overnight but I do know it takes time and it’s a process. I can tell you this: the process has already begun!

It's Your Life!

We went into fasting and prayer from 6:00 until 12:00 noon. It was a wonderful experience. I feel like I’ve been in the kitchen all day, lol. We cooked for Pastor Kyle and most of the people on the floor; I feel like a mother already. Lol. I’ve taken a nap and went bowling with one of the youth I’m watching Christina and ended up bumping into “Richard and Maddy”. Pastor Kyle touched on the subject of being in a relationship with someone who you know isn’t who God had intended for you but you don’t feel like waiting anymore…..HELLO! How many times is God going to speak to him before he catches the vision? Any who, the evening service was absolutely wonderful! I danced until I couldn’t dance any longer, then I cooked some more. LOL.

Is He Not Strong Enough?

I never want to be in a position where I doubt my God and want He can do. I know God is a God who can do ANYTHING! There is no limit to what, when and how He can do it. I’m a little tired, I got in at 2:30 am and then went to sleep only to get up at 8:00 and get ready for Elevate today. We got off to a bumpy start; My Youth President Duanne was mad at the boys (Danny, Yardley and Craig) for taking their time and making us later (later being that Duanne made us late to begin with, lol) than we already were. I have bags of clothes for a 3 day retreat! It’s so bad, I feel like such a chick! Any who; the pastor that is speaking is named Kyle Rodgers. He’s an on fire, anointed man of God. Did I mention that he’s 25? Lol. It makes it even better because he’s ministering about what he’s dealing with now. He touched on the topic of being in a relationship even if you know that’s not who God has for you…..no comment. I’m believing God for an awesome move and change on behalf of the Youth.

Happy Birthday Mommy!

Today is my mom’s 49th Birthday! She’s getting old, lol. I thank God for my mother. She worked hard so that her children wants and needs would be met. I love her. My mother is the easiest person to shop for. She like classics, cheesy old movies (with killer ants, spiders, etc), and flowers. I have to waitress a party tonight and God knows what time I will be home. I am ready to stop waitressing all together; it’s not where I need to be.
