Queenies Little Kingdom

I can’t be the only mom to feel this way. Everytime he comes home, I get used to feeding him and picking up after him and BOOM! He packs up to leave again! Now, my heart and brain have to get used to him living somewhere else again. Somewhere that I’m not. 🙁

As he left today….I helped him get packed and sent him to the bank to deposit his rent money. Then we drove over to SCREAM-MART Walmart to grab a few groceries for him to eat on the next week or so {$ ChaChing, goodbye $95}. Before he left town, we met hubby at Sonic for a little goodbye lunch. It was all going great until my chilli-cheese fries arrived. I managed to drop them down the entire front of my body!! I didn’t miss a spot; scarf, hoodie, jeans & my seat! Got it! All over! 🙂

That’s what I get for getting all fancy and putting on real clothes today! Hrmph!

Now, I’m back home to quiet and missing my boy already. He has some big responsibilities to handle this week. A job, meeting with his counselor, creating a rockin spring semester and a hard conversation with roommates. I’m so proud of him! Standing up for what honors God isn’t always popular, but he isn’t afraid to do it! GO GAV! I’ll be praying for him as he takes on all this and more.

Can’t wait to see him again, soon! These visits just make me miss him more.

We love football days! It’s our last regular season game. Boo! 🙁 But, it is possible that we will play some post season games….right? Which means YEEHAW for us! I can’t bear to watch if my Colts aren’t playing! So, once we’re out…..I’m done!

I love ya Colts!! GO FIGHT WIN!!

I’m surrounded by the people I love and cheering for my team. Now that’s a nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon!

I’m looking ahead to what 2011 has in store for me and my family. My prayer is that God blankets us with His protection and fills us with His love. I want to be a better me. I want to love deeper and care more. I hope to be a kinder wife, mom & friend. It’s been a goal for me just about every year….but the older I get, the more I understand the importance of loving others like Christ expects me to.

Wherever you’re heading this year….I pray that you feel God’s presence and share His love with all you meet. The world needs His love and who better to give it than you and I.

Happy New Year, friends! Thanks for stopping by and reading my hodge podge of words. I hope you find something that blesses you here.

“Forget the former things;
do not dwell on the past.
See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?” Is 43:18-19

I’ve officially turned to some sort of human jello. Nobody should ring my doorbell in hopes of seeing an actual functioning adult. I’m teetering on the edge of total bum and loser. Neither of which sound very “responsible”. What is my deal? It’s just Christmas break! It’s not like I’ve been told to just give up. I’m suffering from a severe case of cabin fever too much free time laziness.

Help!!

I’ve not worn “real” clothes since…umm, Saturday? It’s not healthy, ya’ll! Last night, I vowed to all of Facebook that I was definitely going to get motivated today and DO SOMETHING!! It’s currently 12:30pm and I’m on my bed (again) still in my pj’s! Perthetic! 🙁

I can’t complain about me too terribly. I did manage to take down the Christmas decorations yesterday. Now if we could just finish taking the tree apart and pack it away. Hmm, Honey? Your turn! 😉

But things are looking up. Tonight, I have P L A N S !! Yep! I’m even going to shower and put on some makeup. Hubby and I are going to meet friends for dinner. Not just any old friends either, friends with a new baby that I’ve been dying to meet for over a month! Yay!!! I can’t wait to see you tonight MISS AMELIA!! Oh and you too, B & P!

Ok, now that you know what a huge event I have ahead of me….I better get going. It could take me all day to get ready. hehe!

PS
Why, why hasn’t someone told me about the show Tori and Dean? I cannot stop watching! Heeeeeelp!!?!
{see, I’m sick!}
