Sunday... Sunday... Sunday....

Wow! Today has felt like the longest day ever! I am so exhausted! Patrick and I really didn't do anything too exhausting, and yet I feel as though the life has been sucked out of me. I think recovering from this four day illness is kicking my tail end!

Today I realized many things:

1. I do not like cooking! LOL. I have constantly told people how much I enjoy cooking. As I was standing in the kitchen "being creative" with dinner, I realized, "I HATE COOKING!" As terrible as that sounds, it sometimes feels like cooking dinner will be the death of me. I look at all of that food and just want to be sick. Perhaps, I am self-sabotaging myself! Whenever you enter the word diet into your vocabulary, it is amazing how much you suddenly hate about your life!

2. I love my dog Chewy. I have always known how much I love him, but today it was more clear than other moments in my life. As I listened to our other new puppy whine and whine, it was Chewy who came to the rescue and put him into his place. It was nice to have a reprieve from being the enforcer! LOL.

3. I love my husband more than I thought possible. When I am just sitting around, looking like an abomination to the world, it is my husband who reminds me how much he loves me. It isn't that he just loves me, it is that he reminds me how much he 'likes' me too. He is glad to be my best friend. Some days you just really need to be reminded of that friendship. It is definitely food to my weary soul on those occasions. I am so blessed to know that I have this one perfect person in the world who likes me just the way I am!

4. Church really does revitalize the soul! You know, it isn't just about going to worship God for me. There is a fellowship in being surrounded by other people who are just peaceful in their time of worship. I could not trade those moments for all the cookies in the world! :)

5. I have a pretty great life. You know, when I sit back and evaluate my life, it is pretty spectacular. Sure, I have moments when I feel like it is all going to crumble every second, but on the whole it is a pretty good life.

Now, I am going to go and program my hot pink ipod shuffle with my hip-happening music for working out! LOL. A little hot pink toy to get my tush in gear!!!!!!!!! Love it!
