morning musings

Just a few things on my mind this morning:
1. I LOVE space heaters. I would literally freeze to death in this office every single day if I didn't have one at my feet.
2. I love summer. so much. It's full of the lake, the pool, friends, family, sunshine, lots of good food, cold drinks, coozies, days off, camping, hiking, swimming, laying out, evening walks, morning runs, and tan lines. It's just simply the best. And anyone who says they like winter better is seriously deranged.
3. Boys who still act like children do not deserve the love of woman who doesn't hold anything back. (no this is not about me, I'm venting on behalf of a friend). If you are a male and you have the strong, unwavering, trusting, caring, and undeserved love of a woman, you need to man up and stop acting like a child. If you can't treat her the way she deserves, then let her go so she can find someone who will. There's nothing I hate more in this world than seeing my friends mistreated by guys who are all perfect at first and then turn out to be a jerk just like so many others before. So many of my friends look at my relationship and tell me that they are jealous or they wish they could find a guy who treats them like Jake treats me. Well, my secret is that I didn't settle. I had plenty of chances but I knew God had something better in store for me, so I waited. And trust me, it was WELL worth it. I'm not sure where guys get the idea that they are allowed to do whatever they want and not think about how it makes others feel. When you hurt one of my friends...watch your back. That's all I'm saying.
4. I am going camping this weekend with my mom, my sister and her boyfriend, Jake, and my niece Savannah. I absolutely cannot wait!! I love camping. wooohooo!
5. Tonight is the last night of my pre-summer session night class...PTL! We have been going 4 nights a week for 3 hours at a time for the last 3 weeks...I'm so ready for it to be over! Yay so close!
6. I am so blessed. I'm sure I could find things to complain about or things that go wrong every now and then, but in all honesty, I have been blessed beyond comprehension, and I have a God who loves me more than life itself (literally, because He died for me!). I have an amazing family, and a few close friends whom I love so much. I have the hope of  a prosperous future and of heaven everlasting in my heart, and I don't have to worry about anything because my God has already won the victory, and sin has no mastery over me! Talk about blessed and having a reason to rejoice!! :)
