The 15 Minute Blog

I just told Jonathan that I really wanted to blog tonight but ran out of time. I filled my evening with much more important things like: working until 7:00pm, eating dinner, and watching 24. (LOVE IT. Such a good season).

Jonathan said, “Why don’t you just do a 15 minute blog tonight?” To which I replied, “Great idea!” I don’t think he realizes that most of my blogs usually only take about 15 minutes. 
Here are a few things that I’ve been pondering/doing/planning/considering/and occupied by:
  • Counting down… the days until Jonathan graduates (and filling my time ordering invitations, finding a cheap caterer, and thinking about centerpieces).
  • Working… a lot more than usual, as part of the company’s new idea to work a “Second 40.” 
  • Reading… a Celebration of Discipline with my girl’s bible study (my new Tuesday night activity, since say goodbye to my Pakistani friends). The book is REALLY good, and is making me thinking about my faith in ways that I never have before. It’s transformative, challenging and so good for me. 
  • Listening to…Lord of Lords by Hillsong. Amy sent us girls a link to this video which touched my heart last week.
  • Going to … Angel’s Camp for a one- night spontaneous getaway with Jonathan before life gets crazy for the next 3-4 months. I love him so much. 
  • Learning… as much as I can about social media so that I can start delivering trainings to our clients.
  • Getting back… on the bike for my commute. I’ve missed it! Happy for warm weather again!
  • Praying for… Jeff and Nicole’s baby, Taylor, and praising God for the ways he’s worked in her little body the last month. 
  • Looking forward to… Santa Cruz weekend with Lori!
Night Night!

I read the celebration of discipline my freshman year at Westmont. It is a great book and I have looked back to it several times. You would also like the celebration of prayer. Looking forward to seeing you soon. Have fun planning Jonathan’s graduation. Tell him I am going to be in Boston that weekend and can’t make it. Sorry brother.

I loved that Hillsong video too! I showed to my bible study girls at lunch today. Oh and I wish it only took me 15 minutes to blog! You are speedy!!! I’ve been debating for the past few days how to start the next one about Berlin. Miss you!!
