Hi Anne!
we were talking about "bothering" God with our prayer requests and believe me, it is not a casual one time thing on my part. Every day when I wake up, one of the first thoughts in my mind is, "God, please have me meet my future husband today!" Anyway, I guess God is more patient than I am!
Last night I saw "The Glass House." it was a pretty good movie. It was so funny (not the movie) This black girl was sitting in front of us (me and Shelly) with her two white friends. I guess now theyr’e playing the Star Spangled Banner before the movie starts. So she sings along with the song in this very loud, slightly off key voice. Then when the song was over, she raises her hand and shouts, "play ball!" Me and Shelly were giggling.
I hope your string of yucky days will be over soon! This whole WTC thing is just adding to my yuckiness factor! I’m not even excited about Disneyworld anymore. Im just so angry that this happened! Why did this fu@#!* have to happen?! What gets me through is a little "mini" prayer that I say everday which is, "God, please help me to seize the day. Help me to "shine" for everyone to see. Please watch over every person and aspect that has been in my prayers, past, present and future. Give me the strength to face my fears and live my dreams. And help me to take each day one step at a time and to TRUST YOU, no matter what!" I hope this prayer will help you as well.
I love the Olive Garden. I could live off of their breadsticks and salad! Last night at work we ordered from a local place called "Sam’s Club." I got a portabello sub which was portabello mushrooms, tomatoes, lettuce, provolone cheese and grilled onions. Yummy! Something you might like since it was meatless. I love mushrooms. Mushrooms and olives are my two favorite pizza toppings. I better stop, I’m getting hungry!
Hope your hair turns (turned) out okay! I haven’t gotten a hair cut in forever! I want to grow it long again. Maybe just a little past my shoulders
Anne, I don’t think our expectations are so high (about meeting someone)! All I want to do is meet a nice, hard working, godly man who I am attracted to and who will want to be with me and only me for the rest of our lives. Is that too much to ask? I don’t think so!
that’s all for today. See you soon! God bless! God bless the USA!
Michele
