Went to the Ikea in Coventry today and it was well odd. The man cleaning the toilets was a wierdo and very agressive, then there was a sign that said checkouts this way and it pointed to a wall!!! Not impressed. food was good tho!
Enjoying my last few days of holiday before it's back to the daily grind.
Need to chase Liverpool when I get back, desperado!
Keep on trucking x

Incredible
Blusk UK were incredible. I mean seriously they were so good and I was so proud of my friend. I even cried a little. So pleased.
Interview tomorrow, sooooooo nervous. But also I have so much to think through before I go and I can't bring myself to make any decsions. Really doing my head in.
It's my week off this week which is good and I'm glad cause it means I get to sleep till whatever time I like. And I was in desperate need of that happening.
Need to start getting ready for this conference in Southampton as well. It has been agreed that I am driving, but we still need to sort out the fine details.
So I'm going home to have a little potter about, do some washing...oh and I MUST sort out where home group is tonight cause there is much confusion!

Sunshine
Yay! The sun is shining! I love sunshine after winter! So good. About to go for a driving lesson in a minute to help get my confidence back after the crash I had before new year, quite nervous. Got an interview on Tuesday so I'm nervous about that as well. But it's my week off now from work. so going to make the most of it.
Also good news - just checked my bank account and all the money that was stolen as been returned!! Yay! God is good, good, good.
And just heard from a friend in the Us and they just told me THE most romantic story I've heard this year. Beautiful. I would cry but I'm in the Library so it's not really appropriate!
Anyway enjoy the sunshine folks!

Valentine's Day
Valentine's Day today! And seeing as I don't have a "Valentine" as such (much to my dismay, I hasten to add!) I sat this morning and read about how much God loves me.
Found Zephaniah 3:17 and though about 'He will quiet you with His love' And you know what...He does! sometimes when I'm worshipping (as in singing worshipping) I suddenly feel like I should just be still and not sing for awhile. And I love those times cause I feel like I'm worshipping just by being me in His presence. And don't get me wrong I love singing I think it is such a good way to express how I feel and what I mean and I normally have amazing times with Jesus when I'm singing. But the quiet times in worship are so refreshing as well.
So no doubt when I get home the post mat will be empty (get the violins out!) but I'm ok cause I have the greatest love that anyone could wish for when and where I want it.
Whats that I hear in my inner being....God is good all the time, all the time, God is good. (if when you feel like he isn't!)
Happy St. Valentines day everyone, may you experience a little, no a lot of God's amazing love for you xxx

His Love Endures Forever
Beautiful morning, this morning! Got up earlier to plan what I'm going to cook tonight and to finish off my application form which is proving harder than I thought it would. Just taken a walk out and it is so gorgeous. I love it when it's cold and sunny cause it always reminds me of the day I became a Christian. And when the sun does break through the coldness it always reminds me of the first time I felt that God loves me.
Just having a little bit of a break from everything to write this and then back to planning and finishing off my application form.
Seen quite a few people I haven't seen for ages this week and it has been really good, and also I heard from some friends over broad which was good but made me realise how much I miss them.
On the whole I feel good and excited and happy and lovely....I love days like this. Thank you Lord, you rock forever x

Sugar and sweetness
Well this lent business about having no sugar in tea and coffee is really interesting cause I have found that I can drink tea if it's very milky but not I cannot drink coffee without sugar at all!
I mean it's just minging. How people do it I will never know. It's soo bitter. And I am not a bitter girl. I love my sweetness. (Taste that is not me!) So I will not be drinking any more coffee for the rest of lent but it's a small sacrifice compared to the one that Jesus made for me so I'll be fine.
Went to the Cathedral last night and that place really messes with my head because I love it so much but I sit there and I see all the unused potential and it winds me up. It really does my head in cause I can see how good it could be and it just is not.
When we got home from the Cathedral we settled down to watch Lost and now that is doing my head in too. I mean what in the world is going on? And why do they never give you an answers? And why do I keep watching it?
Work again today and then I'm off for two days and I've got people round on tomorrow night for a meal...ahhhh I'm scared, haven't cooked for loads of people for absolutely ages!
Home group tonight but I can't remember where we said it was going to be...how rubbish a leader am I? No doubt God will make it a really good evening and I'll fall into bed afterwards more in love with Him than I was before the night! God is good all the time, All the time God is good. (Johan Shep.)

What is he going on about?
Not much has been happening really. Had a quite quiet few days, worked, saw friends, eat, slept, the norm. And it's been good to not have something or other 'going on' for a change.
Just as an aside what is the Arch Bish going on about?? It seems more and more unlikely that I will stay in the Church of England with every day that passes!!
Anyway, this year has been so crazy what with the car crashes then the vandilism to the courtsey car and then my bank account being frauded. No doubt somethings waiting for me round the corner..and it's not chocolate thats for sure.
Today is Sunday and I'm working which is ok I guess. I'd rather be out enjoying the sunshine though!
Also Sundays are always a little difficult when I'm working cause it was a Sunday that my Mum died and I was in work so I always feel a little catapulted into that moment, especially with the weather being how it is today, nice but cold just as it was when she died. But the Lord is good and He is helping me get through it. And He is reminding me of what He said at the time 'Let it be, there will be an answer, just let it be.'
And last night my friend and I watched Save the last dance 2 on the tv and in it there is a black bloke called Miles...and I was like 'NO WAY!' Cause I love the name Miles and I would really like my husband to be black! So I think I may have to buy that dvd now just to remind me that there maybe a black man out there whose name is Miles!
So anyway I had better get on and start work, and hopefully it will pass quickly and I can get round to going to Cathedral praise this evening!

Morning Blog
Thought I'd write a morning blog today. Isn't weird how the enemy is soooo predictible? The very thing I though he was going to do, he did! And in exactly the way I said he would! Very strange but at least I was kind of prepared for it.
So I have been to the bank and sorted everything out as much as I can but I still will not have any money for up to a month....ouch! How I'm ever going to get to Southampton for the conference I will never know, but The Lord does and He'll sort it out, no doubt.
Rest of the day as follows-
Go home (i'm at the Library)
Read an application form (thats breaking news for most of you!)
Wash up
Hang clothes out
Ring Vicar
Think about application form and make notes.
Have tea
Go and Babysit
Bed
Wow what an exciting life.....well it will be soon ;)

Pudding Thursday
Hooray for pudding thursday! My friends that I eat with the most have a rule that on a thursday we always have a lovely pudding and it helps me get through the day. This is the first pudding thursday in lent which means no chocolate puddings for me. But I still can't wait. Work is ok, not too busy but eyes are on pudding.....i mean... on Jesus! Very tired again today and after having a phone call from the bank about the fraud on my account I need to go in tomorrow on my day off and get it all sorted so that means no relaxing for me! And I'm in work this weekend..grrrr. But no doubt pudding thursday will come round again soon enough...can't wait!

Weird
Weird day today. Very strange, someone has cloned my account card and has been using it loads so I've got no money. And at first I was really emotional about it but after while I remembered the Bible Verse I learnt last night - Hebrews 10:23 'Let us hold unswervingly to the faith we profess for the He who promises is faithful.'
And I just let go of it all and got on with the rest of the day, knowing that God is in control cause I have given my life to Him.
Work was ok I guess. I spoke to Dad and my sister today and that was cool. Ad thats it really. Tired now. Watching footie then going to bed.

What a great weekend.
Had an amazing weekend. Seen some old friends on friday and then went to see some dear dear friends up in Sheffield. And had the most relaxing but filled with God weekend. And I heard the audible voice of God!!! And it was incredible, cause it sounded like an ordinary voice but I definately heard it. And things are already different, and I happy. God is good all the time, all the time God is good.
