I haven't blogged since December.
Horrible. Facebook kidnapped me.
For the last few months this saying has danced in my head:
"We live what we believe, not what we know."
The end.

The Month Before Christmas
It's a month before Christmas, the shopping is doneI just joined Facebook and sure, it was fun.
We're warm in our house and filled up with bacon
Hope you are great with your bellies a shakin'.
Time is a tickin'
This sure is true.
My friend's busy painting a room that is blue.
Pretty disgusting for those who have waited
This post is a bust and somewhat belated!
Happy Holidays!

Run, Run, Running
Today I made a "treadmill discovery" about life.When your running on those dang things it seems like you are going nowhere.
Nowhere but sweaty and tired.
What trickled over me this morning is that we are all running.
All of us, running.
Oh yea, either to something or from something.
Sometimes we run from a relationship when maybe we should run to it. Maybe not to make-up, maybe to stand up.
Sometimes we run to the refrigerator when we should get the heck outa dodge. Maybe because its not our stomach that's hungry.
Sometimes we run from spiritual stuff when maybe we should run to it. Maybe not to become religious, but to search for a right standing with God.
Sometimes we run from reality when we should run to it. Maybe to see what we cannot change and realize we cannot do life alone.
Sometimes we run to the mall when we should run from it. Not because things are bad but because they don't fill the blank spot.
Sometimes we run from God when we should run to Him. Not because He judges us, or leaves us, or is disgusted with us.
Because He loves us.
No matter which way we run.

Back in the Blog
Holy smokes! One of my buds John Bunn put a link to my blog and I am way behind in the blog department.
I'm thinkin' it was a hint :) Thanks John! Sometimes you just need a little boost!
My life is full of some crazy stuff right now. What I can say in summary is that God has really been, well, real.
Oh yeah, there have been moments I have felt forgotten, ignored, or just plain over-looked but the truth is that I know He is there.
I know that in moments that I don't understand my circumstances, I can give them to Him. He is the Master fixer, the One I am safe with.
It's a choice. Everyday we have it. To give all our good, bad and ugly to Him. And these days, that's it for me. I would love to say it's because I'm smart or obedient, but sometimes I am there because there is no where else to be. I have simply tried every other way. Sorry admission, I know.
Over the years it is not Him who has done the forgetting, ignoring or over-looking. It's been me.
And I'm experiencing that He loves me in spite of it all.
Period.
Loves me, lots. Big time in fact.

I haven't made you feel very dear at all
Dear Blog,It sure has been a while. I have neglected you for sure.
At first I was so into you. I would stop by often, just hang out with you for fun. Then you kinda got not-so-new and you really didn't fit in with my schedule anymore, so I shoved you to the back of the pantry shelf.
It's not that you did anything wrong bloggy, it's me. I basically dropped you for a while.
And now I'm sorry. This is not how I want to treat you blog. Important one week, second rate the next. You're special and you have done some pretty cool stuff, I hope to visit you more.
Blog, you will need to decide if you can trust me. And can you forgive me? Because really I haven't treated you very well. Maybe you even wish we hadn't become friends at all, then you wouldn't feel rejected and not-so-important anymore.
I love you blog and hope we can stay friends. I will try to stay connected and if you want to come over for coffee....wait, do blogs drink coffee? Maybe I'll just brew a hot cup of words for ya!
Take Care and p.s. you really need to polish your screen.

Thanks
The grass is green, Spring has sprung in Walnut Creek. I have a "wound up" bird outside my window and the buds on the trees look like they are ready to burst.I'm glad the sunshine is here. I'm glad I'm alive.
It really is that simple. I woke up today thankful to be here.
Thankful I'm breathing and drinking lots of water.
Thankful I have family and friends.
Thankful I am healthy with an able body.
Thankful for the things I cannot see that God is doing for me.
Thankful God is so huge that He is so personal.
Thankful that any tears I have shed He has gathered and felt my sorrow.
Thankful for the change of seasons, in my heart and in the wind.
Thankful that I really can trust Him.
Thankful He has understood my doubt and my fear.
Thankful in spite of myself He sees me as His girl, His treasure.
Yep, today it is just that simple. I'm just plain thankful.
