DO NOT ASK TO BE BLOGGED ABOUT!!!

I am only blogging about Cheryl because she entertains me during team meeting and goes on Tim Hortons runs with me immediately followng and is just plain wonderful!!!

My friend Cheryl also know affectionately as C-Beb or Chezza...or C Biddy or Bebby-Baby (of which no one but Fifa and I can actually call her!) Cheryl is my saving grace during LONG and tedious team meetings (they actully are not as bad as I try to pretend!).

I've know Bebby (again...only I can call her that!!!) for quite a few years now when she first came to 614 on the Salvation Army Summer Mission At Home Team or something like that. We spent many days together at the office and became friends. Then she went back to Hamilton...but as tends to happen at 614....she came back! She came on the Ignite team of 2004-2005...and blessed us with her presence....I left halfway through her year to go to Australia...but alas here we are together again...!!

In fact she just helped choose my halloween costume at Shoppers Drug Mart...and I don't know what I'd have done without her help...she actually found most of my costume for me...and that is a good thing. She has a stunning personality.

Well...that is all I have to say for now!

Sick...

Oh my goodness...I went to sleep last night just fine...and woke up at about 2am unable to stop sneezing...and my throat was killing me...I had a fever...It was CRAZYTOWN!

I'm feeling icky still this morning...but trying to push through. I CAN'T STAND BEING SICK! It is something that I really really hate. Hopefully this won't last too long and I can be feeling fine the sooner the better!

Tonight I have squads and I just have to pray that I will be feeling better before squads begins because it is so important to me to be able to be at my best for the kids. I have to come up with a craft before tonight...that could prove to be interesting...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh well. It will all come together I know...God is good...all the time! Even in sickness!

Should go and do some work now. Have lots to do!

Friends...

Sometimes I can hardly believe how blessed I am. God has placed so many amazing and wonderful people in my life. I work and hang out with some of the most caring and beautiful people in the world. If I were to try and describe how great my friends are it would be next to impossible...they are all just so unique and mean so much to me in so many different ways.

Today I had lunch with 3 of my really good friends. It was so fun to just hang out and chat...and as we were sitting there in the restaurant two of our other really good friends (who just happen to be getting married this december!!!!!) came into the restaurant and that really got me thinking about how blessed I am with so many good friends.

Last night I went out with 5 of my friends and we laughed until it hurt, and we just spent time with one another...it was really really great. I just really can't believe how blessed I've been by my friends. I thank God for them every single day of my life! One of my favorite things about my friends is that they all know that they can call me for anything and I in turn know that they would be there for me through anything also. I truly truly thank God for them everyday. My friends are the best friends that I could ever ask for!

Thanksgiving

Yesterday was a fantastic fun-filled Thanksgiving day! I spent the morning and afternoon with my family...and a few others. And spent the evening with some good friends. It was really nice because we were all just hanging out, relaxing and having fun together!

Tonight I think that I am going out with my friend Heather for a bit...but am mostly going to try to spend the night at home relaxing.

This is seriously such a random entry today...I can't think of too much to say...so I keep just coming up with these randoms thoughts that I write down...oh well!

That's it for now!

You're Beautiful!

Last night my housemate Kim and I had the most awesome experience. Let me start from the beginning...On Wednesday morning Kim and I were sitting in our apartment watching Breakfast Television. They annouced a contest to call in and win tickets to see James Blunt in a special TV filming. So we called in...

AND WE WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We were so very excited and last night was the night. We got there and we were not really sure how close we would be or anything. It turned out that we were probably only about 10 feet away from him!! It was so very exciting. He sang about 8 songs or so...and there were interviews in between!

It was such an amazing time. Kim and I were so excited and he performed AMAZINGLY! He is so talented. I still can't believe that Kim and I won those tickets and got to see him so close and personal! There were only about 100 people there...and Kim and I were in about the 3rd row. We were so blessed to win and get such good seats because it was not assigned seating...but we happened to be able to get really close seats.

The picture shown is not one we took. We were not allowed to bring ANYTHING in the studio with us. I even had to check my purse at the door...but it was SOOOOO worth it!

You've always got time for Tim Hortons!

So...I've been off of Coffee since January of this year...and only started drinking it again about 3 weeks ago. I fasted coffee while I prayed for a friend. It was hard...but well worth it. I am so glad to be drinking coffee again...except...here's the thing...I can't drink as much as I used to. All of a sudden now when I drink more than about 1 cup a day, I feel really really sick. I used to drink about 5 or 6 XL's from Tim Hortons a day. If I were to do that now...I think that my body would revolt against it.

So...I guess it is a good thing to be drinking much less coffee...much healthier I'm sure. But OH HOW SWEET IT IS to have the pleasant aroma of coffee and not want to tear my hair out because I can't drink it!

Bottom line...MMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmm...coffee!
