summary of things

Well kids it is Friday! Thank the Maker.

I decided that my blog needed to be only for friends and family, so I took it off my signature at a couple of places. Besides I figure only those who really love and care about me are going to read this anyway.

So, this has been a great week. Didn’t quite turned out as planned, but all the same it was still really good.

This past Wednesday I think I met everyone at the church I work at, which was great. I have to say, I know that when I lost my job at Greeley Wesleyan I was pretty much in major turmoil. I had a dear friend say, ‘I know that this isn’t the greatest thing, but I think that think that something better is going to come along.’ He was right. This has to be the best job I have ever had. Not just because of the work, but because I am respected and my opinion and my value matter. And I have really cool new business cards!

Do you ever have things that come at you out of the blue that totally reaffirm what you have felt or believed for a long time? Not to get in to logistics, but that happened to me last night and I can’t tell you, having that knowledge and that peace is amazing.

Denver, Colorado. I love living down here. It has all the things that I missed about Nashville. I discovered a little area around Washington Park that reminded me so much of Hillsboro Village in Nashville, it was amazing. And most of you know I spent just about every evening up in Nashville or close to every evening.

I feel as if I am starting to get back into a groove. Mind you, I LOVED living in Greeley, I loved being there with my friends, but socially there really wasn’t much to do. It was nice dressing up in my more trendy clothes again. For so long I have been just bumming around in shorts and jeans..ahhh. So nice to get ‘dressed’ up. Now for Deborah, that ‘really’ would be dressed up. he he It is true, I can tend to be high maintenance in that department. It is part of my charm.

So, on the workout front. Today will be the completion of week 3 of working out. They say after a month it becomes a habit. The good thing is I have now lost 10 pounds. Yipeee. That is after a month of “dieting” which is pretty good. So I still have a bit to go, but that is exciting. Progress is always a good thing. See the most exciting thing is I soon will be wearing some of my ‘cute’ going out clothes again, that is what I am really doing this. We all have to have a goal. Seriously, I am actually doing this so I can just be healthier and feel better. Which includes the no caffeine thing. *sigh*

Ok friends..thanks for some of your responses to my previous post. Life sure is strange sometimes and you can not figure out what God is doing. I still wish I knew. The one thing I do know is that He has me in His hands and that is where I need to be.

Have a great weekend! Blessings!
