Yay 4 2Day!!

Ok so let me just keep this short. I'm going to be interning with Peachtree Photography! Yes I'm so excited Jessica is awesome and I can't wait to work with her! God has some great things planned for Peachtree Photography and I'm really excited to be apart of the team! Some other things are starting to move forward too!!! Yay! Today was an awesome day. Hanging out with my Hubby is something I enjoy all the time. I wish we could do it everyday! Who knows maybe one day we can!! I'm so proud of everything Jeffrey learned from the past week he spent in CA. He came home with so much knowledge and is so excited about what God has in store for his music ministry. We can't wait for what God will do for both of us! Whew.. its time for some much needed sleep. I am leaving for South Carolina this Thursday and then I may be going to the beach with my cousin later on in the month depending on work/job. Cross my fingers!!! 
See you on the flip side!

NO TITLE

Oh My Gosh! Two days in a row of blogs.. I am getting better. Today I will probably post two if I get a chance.
I threw up @ 1.30 this morning and couldn't get back to sleep for another hour or so. So I planned on going into work a little late. Well I get to work... and then I'm sent home. OK I can handle that but on my way out, I'm told I'm not needed next week. Whatever. Today is a new day. Started out iffy got a little worse and now, God is going to use this to show off His awesomeness. Jeffrey is going to try and get on an earlier flight tonight. PRAY THAT HE DOES. I need him to bring reason to my crazy mind. I am at my dads office now getting a much needed reality check......
Oh By the way.. I'm super excited about this weekend. The wedding will be amazing. As for me. I can only pray God shows me whats going on for His glory.

ok I'm out

Take me away...

I am a bad blogger... Amy brought it to my attention this past weekend. Its true I have to confess it. I'm going to try and get better. But no promises.

My husband, Jeffrey, has been in CA since Monday morning. After a slight problem with the 1st plane, he finally made it out there about 4 o'clock our time. (he was up @ 6 am our time) I really am starting to miss him. I know its just a "few" days, but its starting to get a little tough. I'm used to seeing him EVERY night and cuddling up in his arms before I fall asleep. I didn't fall asleep until 2 a.m. this morning. It was almost like I was fighting sleep, Sleep something I desperately wanted! I finally crashed only to awake @ 7 a.m. and fight to go back to sleep I finally gave up @ 8.30. This weekend is pretty busy/stressful/exciting all bunched together. Friday - Jeffrey comes home and I get to see Beth Moore that night. Saturday- Beth Moore some more (no pun intended... lol) then I go and take my final "exam" if you will for the photographer. I'm very nervous and very excited all at the same time! who knows what will happen.

Ok so I just got off the phone with Jeffrey... HE misses me 2!!! yay! But he is having such a great time and that makes me sooo happy.

Now its off to "work". Which by the way... my last day is the 3rd of July.. Anybody know of any week day jobs???

S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y

Gosh the rain this morning really made me SLEEPY! I'm really excited because today is the last Saturday I'll be working at "this" job. (has to be nameless) So while at work I will try to find another job to make some money. :) I drove last night up to kennesaw to see my bestest friend Ashley Webb. Who by the way is GONE all Summer!! I got to see her for about 40 mins and then we parted ways again. I miss you! But it was totally worth the drive. Tonight Jeffrey is singing at church. Can't wait to see/hear him. He is so talented. Oh I love him! OK well short blog for what will hopefully seem like a short day! Really Looking forward to next weekend. Beth Moore/Photography. Doesn't get any better than that!!! Keep Jeffrey in your prayers he leaves for Cali Monday morning reallly early!

A Few Days....

Wow its been a few days and SOO much has changed. I spoke to my boss about switching my sched. to Mon-Fri, well needless to say I was a little shocked when they told me that wouldn't work. I completely understand though. It is retail however. So with that being said that really frees me up to pursue Photography which I'm so blessed with the opportunity right now. I can't wait to see what God has in store for the Photographer and I. God is good all the time. I'm trusting that He has something lined up for me. Which I know He will show me in His timing. I am feeling so free in His love lately. With all the craziness that is going on in the world, I somehow feel as though I'm standing with just God.

Vacation.. WoW do I need one. PLEASE.

ROLL OUT!!!!

Ok so I had a great night with my cousin who I love dearly.. well we had great food at She's Bistro in Peachtree City. Totally not worth the money.. great but go to Kiku's if you want that kind of food. Anyways Kevin met up with us and then.. the highlight of the night hit.... "someone" pulled up in the car that my cousin has an order against. So we had a get away driver ( Kevin) we quickly loaded up and rolled out. We def. did work son! I'm done with my 2 day selling seminar which was actually really great and totally worth my time. However I am so sleep deprived that I could probably sleep sitting up right. I'll catch you up on everything else going on later.
Until the Sun Rises...



I'll be sleeping of course...

One Year

Dang.. its been a few days. But there is still no time to catch up on everything that's been going on. We are really busy... and have been really busy.
Today.. One Year Ago I was running around like a mad woman trying to get fish for 2 bowls that would be at my reception. Then later today a year ago, I said I do to my perfect match. I love him more and more each day. Its been a crazy year, but I wouldn't trade it for a Billion bucks. I'm so proud of Jeffrey everyday that he accomplishes something different. I can't wait to see what God has in store for us. But right now we kinda feel at a stand still. God has something planned and we are VERY happy with where we are. I had a great night last night hanging out and taking pictures. Its exactly what I needed. I can't wait to see what comes of that too!!! I'm patient and I know God has everything under control.

Happy 1 Year 2 ME!!!!

Truth has a soul... and it wants to be free.

I'm super excited I'm getting my mattress on Saturday. Not just any mattress my Tempur-Pedic Mattress. Oh I can't wait. The joy of sleeping in heavenly peace.. I can't even put it into words. Between the hours of 8-12 they will be delivery my new mattress. YIPPEE.
I dyed my hair today. You can't even tell. :( ok maybe you can a little. Its darker and has a new dark shade to it. I have dark hair anyways.. oh well... Great things are happening all around. Our community group was great tonight. I think its so amazing to sit in a room of transparent Christians who are willing to let others into their life and struggles. God is so wonderful to bring pure truth into our lives. Its not totally lost. Standing for something isn't looked "down upon".
Speaking of truth. I love it. Some may not agree but it truly makes a huge difference, even in friendships. I could write about that for days. I have a personal struggle with "knowing" things that "best friends" don't even know about each other. Shocking things that you would totally think you could share with your best friend. But yet some how, the truth about each persons soul finds me. Anyways, I won't continue. If you haven't been a 100% truthful.. I think its time. You'll be amazed a the freedom and forgiveness God has prepared us with.
Ones soul can be truly seen only by a truthful or hurting heart. Even if its only shared with another for a second. Its there.. just waiting to be free and forgiven. ~jh~

Life Makes Me Laugh

Ouch, Charlie. I could watch that everyday. Charlie, bit me. I woke up this morning barely able to get myself out of bed. I don't know why but lately I'm really struggling getting ready in the morning. Maybe its because I still don't get enough sleep.. but 8-9 hours should be plenty.

I got a new couch today.. well actually the delivery guys showed up at the store today with a couch they were going to throw away and I called dibs on it yesterday. (the customer told us they needed a couch removed) So I claimed it, as long as it was in "good" condition. I know I'm really weird for taking a couch from a stranger. But I will be cleaning it tonight. Thank the Lord. It cost NOTHING.. and NOTHING is beautiful!!

My cousin and I made a list of things we've done that really make us laugh looking back on it. I really can't repeat these things because others probably wouldn't find it funny. Trust me they are great! Just take a minute to see the humor in your past decisions that are kind of "off the wall" if you will. Here I'll give you an example... Have you ever helped yourself to something at someone's house without asking?? (I'll leave it up to your imagination) Those are the kind of things that we just spent a great 15 mins laughing about.

I am choosing not to be so stressed anymore. Its really started to effect my health again. I'm sleeping poorly, my cycles are messed up again (not preggers) and I really want to be careful so I don't really mess myself up. Gosh if only I wasn't so emotional. I've realized that God's placed certain things on my heart for a reason and I can't wait to see them happen. Patience... oh my favorite word. But I can't get stuck in Patience Land either. Get off my butt and start doing stuff that will get me to the "promised land"! Gosh the song Jeffrey and Amy created is AMAZING!! Tomorrow we will be getting some more feed back. To make sure its not just us that love it! ;) Personally that's good enough for me. God has done some amazing things these last few days. I'm just ready to really see what he has in store for all of us.

I'm Longing.... oh and I'm Laughing

Oh the Beauty...

Of work. I love working. I love doing my job well. But this is not normal. All the day in and day out things that I put up with, is going to have to stop. I almost feel like there is a bully at work. I just continue to trust that God has my perfect job and its right around the corner.

I had an offer given to me last night about some therapy. Now at first you may say one of two things, "Yes, Thank the Lord Jessica is finally getting help." or " You don't need therapy." I say I do.. because its Marble Slab Therapy. Which in my book is the only way to do therapy. In one hand you have about 34 billion Weight Watcher Points and in the other your heart.

There are still very few people who understand me and I think that is why I feel almost compressed as if I can't breath around some people. I'm thankful for the things I have and I am ready to work even harder for the things I want. Like freedom. I have spiritual freedom and can't wait to be free from debt. Its just a great feeling. I think we'll take the much desired vacation to Italy once that is accomplished. So maybe next year I'll be posting about the beautiful EVERYTHING over in Italy.

Dare I say that today is a depressed day? I woke up already feeling defeated. I'm not sure what spiritual battles are around me today, but I choose to stand tall and to encourage my angels that their fight is worth it. I am worth fighting for, I can do great things through Christ and I'm choosing to do so today.

P.S. I can't wait for what God has in store for my husband either. His voice is like hearing angels and now that God has brought someone into our lives that He gives words to.. oh the bliss of happiness through Christ is worth every bad day for just a minute of His Glory Shown on Earth.
