Graduation And the Like

I have a doctor's appointment set up for Monday. I have got to go get myself checked out.

I am getting excited; my hubby's graduation ceremony is on Sunday. He will be graduating Magna Cum Laude. I am so proud of him. That's a great accomplishment. He worked hard for that too. I know, I was up for a couple of those late nights. I am going to have to make a website for the pictures that I take for his graduation.

I am going to have to get some programs for his people, since they will not be there. Which, we are going to be in trouble because we didn't even tell anyone about this graduation, well, family that is. He told the people at his job. I am proud of him for that.

Can't wait till Sunday.

A Little Better

I feel a little better today. I just can't shake whatever this is that is making me feel rotten.

I am so tired. I am about ready to scream. I need a break more than anything.

My husband doesn't have anymore classes. I am so happy.

Things can go back to normal. I am so happy.

Spring Break will be here in a few more weeks. I think I need to get out of the city. I am hoping that we can go somewhere. I need to leave this place.

Need To Vent
Well, I really needed to vent. I am just tired right now. Things are crazy. Lately, there have been so many changes in my life. I don't do well with change, especially change that was not initiated by me. Most of the changes have been at work. A couple have been at home.

One of the changes at home is very welcomed, but it will take some adjustment. My husband is finally graduating with his Bachelor's degree. I am very happy. I have been waiting for this day for a long, long while. YEA!!! I am proud of him. He will be graduating Magna Cum Laude. He worked hard for it, too.

I just think I am becoming a crabby old lady. (SMILE) Not really, but it feels that way sometimes. I know a lot of it is that I am just tired. It isn't easy having a husband who is always up late studying. I am a light sleeper, so any kind of commotion, I wake up. Plus it is hard for me to go to sleep. It takes me like 15 to 20 minutes to get to sleep after my head hits the pillow. The rest of my family, go straight to sleep. I am an odd ball in my family. I just hope my mood changes once my sleeping habits change.

I am just irritable today. I know I really need a break. It's like 2 more weeks until Spring Break. Thank God. I want to try to go somewhere, but I don't know if I will be able to. I may just have to go to Refugio for the week. At least I will be out of the city. I don't know. I kind of want to go to Atlanta to see my brother. (My nose is running like crazy!) I miss him. He has twists now. He sent some pictures but I couldn't see them like I wanted to. Oh well.

My necklace broke today. Nuts!

I guess I have vented long enough. I feel a little better.

First Things First
Well, it has been a minute since I posted. I have been writing in my journal, I just haven't posted them.

I have entries from December 2007 through the beginning of this month. Just haven't posted them to the blog. Lazy, I know. I will post all of the older entries one of these days.

Just a note to let ou know why the gap in between entries.

Philippians 4:6-7
(The Message)
Don't fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God's wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It's wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life.
(Contemporary English Version)
Don't worry about anything, but pray about everything. With thankful hearts offer up your prayers and requests to God. Then, because you belong to Christ Jesus, God will bless you with peace that no one can completely understand. And this peace will control the way you think and feel.
(Worldwide English (New Testament))
Do not worry about anything. Talk to God about everything. Thank him for what you have. Ask him for what you need. Then God will give you peace, a peace which is too wonderful to understand. That peace will keep your hearts and minds safe as you trust in Christ Jesus.

Praise The Lord Everybody
My resolution, so to speak, for 2008 is to praise the Lord more often. I don't mean, just thanking God, but shower God with praise.

What does Praise the Lord mean to you? That is the first question you must ask yourself. After some thinking on the matter, these are my thoughts...
Praise the Lord, means to shower God with praise. Tell God how much He means to you. Tell God how wonderful He is. Tell God how good He is.
Think about how you feel when people shower you with praise. How do you feel when someone says, "Your hair looks good," "You look like you have lost weight," "I enjoyed you singing?" That type of praise makes our day. That is how we should shower the Lord with praise.
Lord, You are an awesome God.
Lord, You reign and super reign.
Lord, You are more to me than life itself.
Praising God can help you as well in your daily walk and fight. The next time the enemy comes to your mind, begin to Praise the Lord. You can say it, preach it, sing it, yell it, or whisper it. Just let the devil know about your God and how awesome He is.

I looked up some scriptures on the matter. Here they are:

Psalms 9:10-11
10: And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
11: Sing praises to the LORD, which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the people his doings.

Psalms 9:1-2
1: I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.
2: I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High.

Psalms 7:17
17: I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high.

Psalms 28:6-7
6: Blessed be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
7: The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.

Psalms 33:1
1: Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.

Psalms 22:22-23
22: I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.
23: Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.

Psalms 145-8-10, 21
8: The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.
9: The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.
10: All thy works shall praise thee, O LORD; and thy saints shall bless thee.
21: My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD: and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.

Why not praise the Lord with me?

11/14/07

Today
Today, I feel... undistinguished. I don't feel particularly good. I don't feel particularly bad. I don't feel particularly happy. I don't feel particularly sad. I don't know how I feel today.

Today, I thought... about nothing in particular. I think particular is my word for the day. My NaNo Novel breezed through my mind, but I didn't concentrate on it in particular.

Today, I prayed...
Philippians 4:6-7
(The Message)

Don't fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God's wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It's wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life.

(Contemporary English Version)
Don't worry about anything, but pray about everything. With thankful hearts offer up your prayers and requests to God. Then, because you belong to Christ Jesus, God will bless you with peace that no one can completely understand. And this peace will control the way you think and feel.

(Worldwide English (New Testament))
Do not worry about anything. Talk to God about everything. Thank him for what you have. Ask him for what you need. Then God will give you peace, a peace which is too wonderful to understand. That peace will keep your hearts and minds safe as you trust in Christ Jesus. (My favorite version)

Today
Today, I feel... like cooking dinner.
Today, I thought... about what to cook for dinner.
Today, I prayed... Lord, help me to be anxious for nothing. Let Your peace that passes all understanding rule in my life forever.
