Week in Review

this week man. sometimes a get to the end of a week and look back and think, wow i did nothing spectacular. in fact some really big bummers happened. and that is not at all fun to read about on someones blog. but some weeks are just like that so here is an honest list of my bummers and not-so-much bummers of this week.

i worked extra hours. (which means more money which is really good)

i payed off my college loan and am now completely debt free. which is fantastic but also means i am very, very poor now.

i went the week without coffee. which is a travesty in and of itself.

i took almost no pictures.

i went on a long walk with pete and ate at taco bell.

i met with a photographer who i think might actually change my life haha. more on that later.

i went home to my parents.

i traveled to DC to watch two of my favorite ladies finish a marathon. (cried the whole time.)

i lost my iphone on the metro. here's hoping someone honest found it and turned it in to lost and found. i will know by tuesday.

i cried about my phone. (silly girl.)

i got to eat a delicious red velvet dc cupcake. 

i got to go to my home church and cried there because that was one of the last couple times i'll be going there.

(i really love my church. . .)

i said every day this week i would clean my room. i am going to clean my room today.

i missed people.

i am trying to hard to find things to be thankful for. who wants to hang out with an unthankful person. some days are just harder than others but those are the days when we need to be thankful the most. i hate going to bed feeling like i lost the battle that day. here is a list of things we can always be thankful for;

Jesus loves us.

family.

dogs. even if you don't have one, you can be thankful for them because take my word for it, they are the best. my neighbor's dog past away this week because she saved a little boy from a copper head by jumping in front of him. truly mans best friend and it makes me cry just thinking about it.

music.

soft blankets in cold weather. (did i mention its snowing again?)

people who encourage and are honest. (see chelsea.)

and as always, creativity.

so here's a deep breath and a new start to a new week. i hope your week was a tad better than mine. and i hope you are thankful no matter what. here's to monday and a better heart attitude. 

1 Thessalonians 5:18 - In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
