Weekend

It's been entirely too long! It seems every time I sat down to write, another "chore" would come to mind. Work has been busy, and after work even busier. No complaints though...it's been a fast and pleasant January. I cannot believe we are one day away from February.

This past Saturday was tons of fun. An early morning start...coffee with mom and on to estate and yard sales around town. We found an estate sale in Midtown in a quaint little neighborhood. The house and it's interior were very dated, simple, and filled with adventure. Estate sales are so sad and exciting all at the same time. The house was someone's home, full of their coveted and most precious possesions. You cannot help but wonder the story behind the pictures, the furniture...who were they..what did they do..."Life is but a vapor". The home was full of scrapbooks...so.many.scrapbooks. Each labeled with the year and country visited. They seemed like simple people who spent their money seeing the world. Enchanting and intriguing. I want to travel that much....

I bought a little clock to set on a side table. It's been on my "to buy" list for awhile, and the fact it came from an estate sale makes it that much better. Looking at it now, I realize it still works - the hands have changed. A few other purchases I hoped to buy, but missed my opportunity. At least I have a mission for the next Saturday estate sale search.

After a Scentsy party (really looking forward to the frangrances I purchased), TC and I got ready for our second annual Senior Bowl date. Remember last year? This year had a lot to live up too... Once again, we had a blast. Our only regret is that we went poster-less this year. We've already planned our poster for next year. We visited the same sushi restaurant after the game and a local ice cream parlor. We embraced our city culture Saturday. So traditional and cultural of us.

Sunday we spent at church and with friends. Services were awesome, several saved and several filled with the Spirit. I was convicted and challenged. Grateful for the truth preached in my church.

I'm looking forward to February...the month of love.

Perfect. perfect.day



The South lost...
