It's fun Friday!!!

So it's been a crazy week. I feel like I've been going 100 mph the whole month of July!! It's the 20th for crying out loud!

This past weekend, I was so blessed to attend the wedding of Jimmie and Laura Ingram. If I knew how to post pictures....I would. Maybe later! :0) (I'm not as tech savvy as one might think!) The wedding was wonderful. Laura was beautiful in her gown. I've never seen anyone as proud as Jimmie. We were surrounded by great friends...who are more like family. It was just a great weekend.

This week...it's been fast and furious. Work is going good. Busy...which is great. I really love my job. I enjoy the people I work with. I feel like I'm good at what I do. It's very fulfilling. I'm thankful that God has brought me to this place. Life outside of work is good. I was able to catch up with some old friends this week. Ginger was here this weekend for the wedding and Heather is here for vacation this week. It's been great catching up and hanging out.

Yesterday, I did something for the very first time. It's something that most of you have done many times, but I just never have gotten around to it. I decided to go get a pedicure. Yup...first time. Very disappointing!! I thought there would be more to it. I guess that's what I get for going to a place I've never been to by myself. I only paid $20...so I guess I should've gotten the deluxe or something! Oh well...next time, I'll go with my girls and we'll hit up the spa! :)

I made another decision yesterday. I've decided that I'm going to sign up for the 5K in Germantown. They have a 5K run/walk in October for their Oktoberfest. I think it's a good goal. It's several months away, I've only walked like a mile at a time over the past 10 years...so maybe I can work up to 3 or so in a couple of months. :) wish me luck!!!

Random thought....a co worker just walked in and showed me this video. I laughed pretty hard....let me know what you think. :)

A few simple words can make someone's day...

Long story short...I ran into an old friend last night. Actually, more like an aquaintance from about 10 years ago. He had gone to college with the girl I was hanging out with, so he remembered her well...but when I walked up...he was like, "Hey I remember you." A little bit shocked...because seriously, it had been a long time and we really didn't spend a lot of time hanging out before. So it was nice that he remembered.

Later that night he told me that I had the sweetest face. He said, that's why he remembered me so well. I have a sweet face. Totally made my night...and my day today for that matter. Which made me start thinking about this verse.

Proverbs 16:24 "Pleasant words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones."

It's so easy and so powerful. To be kind...to see something special in another person and to speak it into their life. There's healing in that. We have the power to give healing. So why don't I do it more? I'm thankful that someone spoke healing to me this week.
