Slacker

So it was said that some of us are slackers in the blogging world. I must admit I have been one of those people. I am so sorry! So to make sure you all get your Jessica fix even while I am on VACATION, I will have a post for you everyday until we get back and then just give me a couple days so I can unpack and make myself go back to work.

So here’s an update from my last Question post. I have still NOT done a single one of them…I thought I had found a bra, brought it home and wore it for a couple hours and then I couldn't wait to get it off. I still can’t figure out the siggy thing, the Bible is going to need more research, I am enjoying YouVersion as of right now. Oh and my heels are still quite scary!

So how have you been?

Questions

I know, I know...crazy that I am posting twice in one day and it's not even the weekend. Your welcome!

So I have questions about random things so I thought I would ask my loyal follower(s) for advice on these subjects. You have my permission to pass a long this post to anyone you think will have answers for me.

Ok, let's get started!

1. Sorry boys-I need new bras! I seriously have no idea what size I am or style is the best. I am not some fancy pants that needs to match my undies with the bras, so any suggestions are welcome. Where should I go to get one? Where do you all buy yours? I am not one to let some random person measure me for the right size, so does anyone know how to properly measure yourself? Maybe, I will enlist my husband to do that :) I've always been the sports bra type, but now that I am almost 30 I think my girls would appreciate the lift! Ok bring it...

2. Feet-my feet are horrific! As I have gotten older my heels have gotten worse. I have my dad's feet (like everything else I got from him) you know the hard, cracked, dry, rough heels. It's quite embarrassing even telling you all about this. But, I need help. I do the foot paddle thing, I put lotion on them, and still nothing. If you weren't blessed with perfect feet, then pipe up and tell me how you keep them under control. If you were blessed with perfect feet, um, well, good for you...be thankful! So tell this flip flop wearnin momma should do.

3. Hair- I was recently introduced to 2 new hair products made by Sunsilk. One was a cream twist and the other was a spray that were called Waves of Envy. Oh my goodness, am I in love. As most of you know I have crazy hair, one day it's curly, then straight, poofy, frizzy, it just can't make up it's mind what it wants to be. I normally use spray gel, or mousse when I want it curly, but it always leaves my hair crunchy. Then Sunsilk came into my life and it makes my hair so soft but not frizzy, just all around BEAUTIFUL! Ok so maybe not that beautiful but sorta nice. So my problem is this...I can't find it anywhere anymore, I've looked at Wal-Mart, Target, Ulta, I've had another friend look for me to no avail. Have any of you seen this in your area? I had no idea that Sunsilk was either running low on supply or is completely not making it anymore. My hair misses it...Can anyone help this wave girl out?

4. Blog signature-You know the names that are at the bottom of the posts. I would like to have one but I haven't figured out how to do it. Anyone know?

5. Bible-I am wanting to find a Woman's Bible, maybe with some life applications aspects to it, and devotions. I need something that easy to read and understand. I know there are many of my friends that have some so you best suggestions would be great. I have a Bible and it does a good job, but I need something that does an amazing job. Anyone have any suggestions?

That's it for now. I am sure I have more questions somewhere, when I do I will post again. So get to thinking and let me know your answers! Thanks ya'll!

My LG is the BEST

I have no words to explain what happened last night at group other than lives are being healed. Probably one of the most amazing experiences I've had with God. My doubts in God were lifted, and my heart was opened. I can honestly say that I didn't think I was really feeling that far from God, but I guess he needed others to show me just how much he needed me closer to him.

Today was kinda a weird day, I think I was having a de-briefing with God all day. My eyes were opened. I saw him in everything, I really hope that doesn't ever leave me. I thought it was awesome to see two birds taking a bath in a puddle close to my work. So cute, they were having so much fun and it was all because God takes care of them....they have no reason to worry where their next bath will come. I love that!

Sorry, if a lot of this doesn't make sense I don't really know how to wrap my brain around everything that God is doing right now. I continue to ask for prayers that he will keep showing me things, and answering my prayers.

Anyway, thanks to my LG peeps for being there and just know that you all did so much for me last night that you don't even understand. It's funny how one prayer will change a life :)

Happy Early Easter

Today we celebrated birthday's and Easter with my family. We have a family birthday party every month, and usually they involve a holiday. Since my parents are going on vacation soon we decided to do Easter this weekend. It was so cold and windy outside that we hid the eggs in the house. As usual my mother counted the eggs as she was hiding them and said there were 69-70. When the kids got done finding all the eggs, I counted them twice and came up with 64. We searched the house high and low, no eggs were to be found. My mom still says it was 69-70, but come on mom just admit you miscounted....AGAIN! Every year she does this. It's like at Christmas when she would hide all the presents so I couldn't find them and then a month after Christmas here she would come with a present that she forgot she had hid. She's so funny! Enjoy the pictures!

Here's my mom, my cousin Tasha, her little boy Michael and Briley is in the background

Michael and Briley they were so cute. They both posed every time the camera came out.
