Sex/God and Family

That's basically what my weekend consisted of. Oh, and cooking for 6 people twice. My parents were down for the weekend, my cousins stayed with us Friday night to Saturday (meal #1), and my in-laws came over for dinner Saturday night (meal #2). Then we (my parents and me and Paul) went to church this morning, which was amazing. I just have to say that I freaking LOVE my church. I can't help it. It had me at hello.

After a fun-filled weekend, my husband and I are having a laptop war (ok, not really), copying things from the old laptop to the new. We rented a couple movies (neither of which have been watched yet), and I'm attempting to clean up some from the weekend and do laundry. A nice, relaxing Sunday evening. Plus, the weather has been awesome this weekend, so that makes everything better.

I'm learning that I need to be more organized and disciplined in life if I'm going to get everything done. My parents asked how they could pray for us in the car on the way to the airport today, and, needless to say, we gave them a ridiculously long list, so they'll be busy for a while. After we dropped them off, Paul and I were both quiet in the car, just thinking. And this is when the realization hit me - although I do a lot now, I'm going to have to shift my priorities around to make time for things that should be more important in my life (i.e. the gym (well, physical fitness), connections w/ people, stuff for church, etc.) There's just so much to think about, and so much I want to do with life, and the ever-present question of children continually emerges, and I need to learn to be a better wife, and do I really want to be person I am forever?!?

GAH...I hate thinking sometimes.

And I need to blog more.

Ahh Lynn, That last question, "Do I really want to be the person I am forever?", is one that I have been asking myself alot lately. The overwhelming answer is NO! I think the real question is, How do I become the person I want to be and know that I was created to be? If you figure that one out let me know...if not, I'll keep chugging along and let you know if I come up with an easy answer. I am pretty sure there is no easy answer though. I am glad to know that somebody else out there is asking the same questions.
