Excited

So...have you ever been excited to tell someone exciting news? Have you ever been waiting in anticipation, hands clasped, excitement in your throat and just BUSTING to tell someone some REALLY good news? You know that feeling?

I feel like that is what the Lord is doing right now with me :) I feel like he's sitting on a big chair with his hands clasped just ROCKING with excitement....that's how I see him waiting... on me.

I have my hand in on a lot at the moment. Sonshine (preschool), Auction (awesome) and Work from home (rockin') - those 3 things are the "paid" part of my life and the PAID is working along that stinkin' Dave Ramsey and Dave STINKIN Ramsey even though I don't like him...is working the debt y'all! Then I have my volunteer side....Mom2Mom, Twins Sale and PTA...those are the non paid.

I have in the past week...or more...ha...felt MORE than over extended. I at times get a little in over my head and start feeling overwhelmed and then I think back....to God sitting in a chair with his elbows on his knees, hands clasped WAITING for the end result....

There is nothing he doesn't give me that I can't handle. There is nothing I can't do...I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. I prayed for ALL of this, so why am I grumbling?

Well tonight was a bit of a revelation talking with Michael and SEEING the Lord excited for me. I KNOW that in the next year, SOMETHING is going to happen. It's going to be awesome and I am also excited in the anticipation. There is nothing He's given me I can't handle and he doesn't give me more than I can handle. I can SO do this....

I'm excited too....and then I look at my calendar and get overwhelmed again...HA!

It's going to be awesome....I really do know it :)

Goals for 2020

So after thinking through this for a while, I've decided to bring this back into my life.  I love to write, I love to express myself and share recipes.  SO...this blog may not always look pretty...it might get messy, because that's life, and I'm too old to pretend it's not.   Goals for 2020: To continue to search for what feeds my soul and not harms it. I'm going to keep up with my health goals and make it another year of weight maintenance.  Walking starts again.  Not about needing to lose, I like everything a bit tighter.  So there you go.  I'm not athletic, I do not LIKE working out.  But I do like walking because of the moment to take a breath and enjoy being outside and listening to good music 💓 I wanted to commit to living my truth...if I say be kind...that means I have to drop some guards and also do just that.  There's been a couple relationships over the years that I wanted to circle back to this year.  Both hav...

Award Winning Salsa

Well…it won an award in my family 🤣 This blog has seen MANY salsa recipes. I LOVE salsa. I’m always trying to perfect my recipe so I tried some different things yesterday and BAM….I mean wowza BAM!!!! Jayme’s Award Winning 😉 Salsa 2lbs Tomatillo, husked and washed and halved 2 Jalapeño, washed, halved, seeded if you’re a wuss.  1 Serrano, washed, remove stem 1 red onion, quartered 1 Lg Tomato 1 Bunch Cilantro 2 Tbs minced garlic  Salt  On a large baking sheet lay out your tomatillos, peppers and onion. Cover the bottom of the pan Chicken stock or water. I also drizzled a little olive oil.  Put in a 350 oven for 75-90 minutes.  Let cool down a bit and throw everything in a food processor.  Holy. Moly. Very restaurant like. Maybe a Cantina Laredo or Haciendas Ranch feel to it. So. Good.  I like it warm so when I go to get it out of the fridge, I just throw in the microwave for a sec.  SO good!

Perpetual diets and a soul change....

I feel like all my life, I've been on a perpetual diet.  Seriously.  Pretty much every day of my life has been a choice.  Some days/months/years I do great.  Others....not so much. I've never been one of those girls.  You know...the ones that always just pulled it off.  Looks, weight, clothes.  Nope.  That is not me.  I've also always had skinny friends.  They ate the same things as me...but I'd notice on me and never on them.  I think I've always aspired in some way to be each of them.  Hell, maybe they keep me in check so I don't ever let myself go to much?  That's some deep thinking stuff! What a funny life.  Then, I had my jaw surgery.  Long recovery.  Long, hard, painful recovery.  I think I just gave myself a pass for the last couple of years.  Because I can tell you...I hadn't been too worried about my weight since then. So.  I had a picture taken of me on August 17th.  As ...
