Tuesdays with Audrey

It's Wednesday today, but I'm gonna do a post about Tuesdays today anyway. If I had to choose a least favorite day of the week it would be Tuesday. For me this day always seems to take the longest. Most people might think Mondays are killers, but for me, I don't mind Mondays. I find my self feeling cheerful and thinking, "alright the weekend's done and the week of work begins, I can do this." But then Tuesday rolls around an it, "Oh, it's only Tuesday, will this week ever be over." Wednesdays aren't too bad, cuz you know that after Wednesday all that's left is Thursday and Friday and then it's the weekend again, yeehaw! So, I think if I had it my way, I would just remove Tuesdays from the week all together. It's probably a good thing I don't have it my way though, maybe some people like Tuesdays, who knows? Yesterday, my most recent Tuesday felt extremely long. There wasn't much to do at work, so I was mostly putting around trying to look busy. I even dusted and reorganized my color samples. Now they can be easily found sorted lightest to darkest. Needless to say, yesterday I had way too much time on my hands, but now it' Wednesday, hopefully I'll have more to do today.
Later y'all

Enough

Enough

You are my supply
My breath of life
Still more awesome than I know
You are my reward worth living for
Still more awesome than I know

All of you is more than enough for
All of me for every thirst and every need
You satisfy me with you love
And all I have in you
Is more than enough

You're my sacrifice of greatest price
Still more awesome than I know
You're my coming king my everything
Still more awesome than I know

Sometimes I don't like who I am. I don't like the things I do. I don't like the things I say. I don't like the things I think. Sometimes I feel like I screw up more than I do good. Thank you Jesus that all of you is more than enough for me.

It's a bird; It's a plane... No wait, it's my toilet!

Yep it's true, it's not a plane, it's my toilet. For the past few days my toilet has been making this wierd noise that sounds like a plane flying over our apartment. It goes away if just flush it, but a few hours later it comes back. Weird eh?
So, how 'bout this crazy weather? Today I didn't even wear a jacket and I wasn't cold. It's hard to believe that it's mid november and still so warm. This morning I went and did some more Christmas shopping, (almost finished now) and ran into my mother and decided that maybe this meant we should go for lunch together. So we did, we went to Java Junction and it was soooo good. This afternoon, I did laundry, dishes and went to the library for some books. It's been a very pleasant and delightful day. I like the word delightful, such a cheerful word! Well that's all for now folks.

Worship

So, it's late now and I should be sleeping. But, I can't sleep. So.... why not post a post or whatever...
Today one thing that has been on my mind off and on is worship. What is worship? Is it just singing songs to God or is there more? Today while driving in my car a song came on the radio about worship. I'm not sure what it was called or who it was by, but it talked about wanting God to really hear their worship. It talked about wanting to worship God beyond the stereotypes and to truely worship him. So often when I think of worship I tend to define it as singing praises to God. I think this is a good thing to do, but sometimes I neglect or forget other ways or methods of worshiping God. I think another key way that we can worship God is through obdience. By choosing to follow God's way, even when we don't want to, we are worshiping God. God has placed each one of us here for a reason and when we choose to allow God to work through us and accomplish his purposes, I believe that this is also and act of Worship. To me, this means that every little thing I do can be an act of worship. For me, this means that making supper for my roomate can be an act of worship, doing dishes when it's not my turn, making panels at work...etc. These are all acts of worship. For you an act of worship may be providing for your family, helping your child with homework, doing the laundry.... and the list goes on. So many things that seem so unimportant or small, but when viewed as an act of worship, suddenly don't seem so meaningless. Well I'll think I'll end it here now, my thoughts are starting to ramble and I think I need to try and get some sleep.

If all days at Decor were like this....

Today I had a great day at work. Normally I don't really enjoy work, but today was a good one. I started off with not very much to do and then got pulled to another area. When I got back to my area, I was swamped with work. I thought I'd never get it done. Well, surprise, surprise.... I ended up getting most of it done and I got it done pretty quick. I really like days like this. Days were I feel like I'm pushing myself to reach a goal that I'm not sure if it is attainable and then getting it done. Now I'm at home feeling very accomplished and relaxed. I just finished a prime grilled cheese sandwich and iced tea for snack and now I'm typing this up and listening to some classical jazz type music that my roomie has on. It kinda grows on ya, ( I find myself sitting here and just wanting to bust a move to it.) Maybe one doesn't " bust a move" to classical jazz, but what does one do to classical jazz?

Opps, this isn't supposed to be here yet! Silly computer!

I want snow

As I look outside my window, what do I see? I see spring... the snow is almost all melted and the sun is shining. Did mother nature forget about winter? We can't have Christmas without snow. I know it's only the beginning of November, but I really like seeing snow and winter, although sometimes I won't admt to it. I love the cool, crispness of snow and the way it sparkles when it's sunny outside, which isn't that often in winter. I love it when it's gently snowing and the feeling of snowflakes landing on your nose. I love the Christmas feeling snow brings and it just puts a hop in my step to be outside on a walk when it's snowing. So, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

Christmas can't come soon enough!

So... it's been awhile again. But now I have something exciting to post. I finally booked my trip for Christmas and now there's no turning back. I'm going to Ontario to spend Christmas with my Grandparents and aunts and uncles on my mom's side and I'm super excited. I'm leaving on Dec 21 with a 5am flight (ugh) but it'll be worth it. I've been wanting get out there to see family for a few years now and I'm so excited that it's finally not just a dream but reality. There's still a few details to work out, like how I'll get to and from the airport, but I'm not to worried about that. God is good and he will provide. Now I'm sooo excited and can't wait, 46 more days!
