Winding Down?

It occurred to me this past weekend, when I woke up at 3am in a panic with the feeling that I miscalculated or somehow lost a work week to get ready for my upcoming BUSY season...that as people are winding down for the Holidays, I am getting B-U-S-Y!! (Wow, that was a long run on sentence!) Yes, my busy season is upon me. As the event coordinator, super dynamo, extraordinaire person, I have my work cut out for me. I'm about to see what i'm made of the next 2 months. But you know...




I got this. I. GOT. THIS.

it's been...

a full day of hard work, fun, yummy desserts, stress, laughter, frustration, youth kiddos, zoo lights, coldness, lots more laughter, more my fingers are getting numb coldness, funny van rides, youth laughter, knitting, relaxing, more laughter, exhaustion.

it's late and i'm spent.

today...

  • my face decided to break out like it was a middle school-er.
  • i received my Christmas presents from the Stum-y-Garcia household, so now i have to sit and stare at them. Will i open early? probably not. i was 100% forbidden. Wow!!
  • i spoke all evening in a variety of accents. often times, meshed together. and when that occurred...let's just say it more or less sounded like a pirate. Arr, matey!
  • i laughed a lot today. then cried some too. it's been a mixture of emotions.
  • i just noticed this has been my 2nd worst year--since i've begun--in the bloggy blog world. i over think it. all the time.
  • i sing because i'm happy, i sing because i'm free
  • i think it's time to start dreaming again
  • i just like to smile. smiling's my favorite!

Amen's and Aloha's

Hello, Howdy, Aloha all,

Hope everyone has had a great week. I have had a good one, even though its had some bumps, dents and scratches along the way. Literally. On Tuesday night I was t-boned by a 16 year old kid in a very large, old steel truck. Not fun. But, God is good. And I only have a few tiny marks. God definitely had His angels of protection surrounding me. It could have been worse. It should have been worse. But, let me say it again: GOD IS GOOD!!! He's a lover, a protector, a strong shield, and a refuge in times of trouble. Can I get an Amen!!!



I feel abundantly blessed. Oh, How He Loves us!!! But most importantly, there has been MUCH healing being brought to my life through this situation. I'm healing, I'm growing, I'm learning truly about how situations/accidents should be handled. Without fear and shame. I'm understanding what a healthy "sadness" about a situation is; and what is unhealthy and should not be embraced. Accidents happen. It's why they are called accidents. I am choosing to not take on shame when I shouldn't. I'm embracing the awkward and learning to be vulnerable. Thank God for Corky and Sharon. They have been AMAZING!! I mean, A-freakin'-MAZING. Especially since it was there car that was rammed and broken. They've been nothing but helpful, loving and supportive. I'm believing for the best outcome for the entire situation. I believe.
Amen, Amen, Amen!!!

On another joyous note, I just got a link to the house in Kauai. I'm so excited!!!! :) Click HERE to see for yourself!! Come on September 2012.

That's it for now!! Love and hugs to all you lovely readers of mine.

Aloha!!!
