Some pictures of my room!

    

How wonderful is God?

I forgot to mention this at first when it happened, but it is too amazing not to share.  I have the medication I am taking for my depression, it is working well-I feel much more balanced now.  Anyway, since I wasn't at the university for a long time, I wasn't able to meet with the campus health care doctor that I first went to (she's great). 

So I was running QUITE low on medication, when I get a call from her-she had gotten a call from the Target pharmacy where I get my prescriptions-about refilling.

I had been so worried about what I was going to do when it was gone, since my insurance is all wonky because of my educational issues.  But we talked and she called to approve another 6 months of medication.

Here is the AMAZING part of the story; as soon as I got off the phone with her, I felt this very strong lift in my heart, and I knew everything had worked out according to God's plan.  Tears came to my eyes and I just lifted my hands and I praised Him.  I felt a tugging at my heart and I knew it was Him. 

It was such an amazing feeling.  Basically the first one I've had-at least of that sort.  I've never had such a strong feeling before.  Everything had been so subtle before that moment.

Whew.  Alright, I really just wanted to share that with you.

New project...

I will be starting a new project of sorts.  I want to share some of my favorite "family" recipes.  Some of them are true family recipes handed down, and others are just ones that we got from a package of food/ingredients.

I am also going to post pictures of my apartment, I really like my cute apartment, but I am looking for new suggestions for interior design and possibly rearrangement.

But for now, homework.  I am to do a plastics inventory for my Biology class-our instructor is an "advocate" of sorts against so much plastic.  Then I have to do an online assessment for 2 chapters-in place of an exam because we won't have time before the class ends.

God bless.

One of my favorite things!

This is the cupcake apron that my lovely friend Amanda gave me for my birthday one year, I love it so much!

I love being a woman!

Just as the title says...I love being a woman!

Right now I am wearing a long denim skirt, a "bubble" hem tank with a cami underneath, and a fluttery black sweater.

I just got done showering and I am passing the time until class at 1:00. So my hair is still damp/wet from my shower, and I wanted to put it all up in a clip so it wouldn't be dripping on my sweater (I don't like using a blow dryer-it fries my hair and ruins the pretty natural waves)
I used one of the bigger clips I could find with the claws; but my hair was far from all being able to fit.

I have such long thick hair-I love it. But that wasn't always the case, when I was younger, before I truly let Christ into my life, I really disliked my long hair. It was too long and thick and I didn't like the texture at all. But I have since come to love it! I got it from my mother, along with no wisdom teeth (so far anyway).

Whew, so getting back on track after straying...I love being able to wear a skirt and have more options than men do in our wardrobe. We can wear all colors, whereas men usually get teased if they wear pink or purple.

We get to wear shiny and sparkly things. We have a subtle strength about us. We have feminine charms and mystery.

We are delicate, yet strong.

We are so blessed! Praise the Lord for being so wonderful!
