Day 50 - yay for flowers!


I love flowers, or more specifically, I adore roses. I love the way they look and the way they smell. They're not really a representation of emotions, but they are something beautiful to be appreciated.

I went to the store today and was approached by a sales associate. He asked if I wanted to take home some roses home. I guess they were rotating stock and needed to make room for the new flowers. Any way around it, I now have a gorgeous dozen red roses sitting on my table.

Day 49 - doors and windows


It seems that these past few weeks have been a period of saying goodbye. It has become evident that there are plans and dreams I've held on to for too long that needed to have the door closed on them. I sometimes get ideas in my head of the way things should be and how life should go and I wouldn't let them go voluntarily, so God had to shut the door. But I trust there is a window or another door waiting to open.

Day 48 - yay for no seat buddies


Both planes back from MI, I had an unexpected treat. I was able to sit without having anyone next to me. But this also meant I sat at the very back of the plane. I felt the need to take the obligatory picture out the plan window. It wasn't a very clear day, but it was still interesting to be able to see patterns and ridges as we flew past.

Day 47 - Home sweet home


It may not seem like much special, but it's home. No matter where I move, this house will always seem like home.

Day 46 - Fall colors


I loved being able to be home in the fall. All the leaves had turned colors and I spent the day raking at my sister and brother-in-law's house.

Day 45 - mom


While I was in no way happy for the reason I was home, it was so good to be there. I got to see all my family and spend some time with them.

Day 44 - Wednesday night routine


Every Wednesday night for almost 2 years, I would attend 20/30 group at Grace Church. For the last few months, I have definitely fallen out of the habit. Every time I go back though, I'm reminded how good it is to be around people who believe as I do and love worshiping God together.
