miscellany monday

{one} I have a fabulous day planned.  Meeting Cait this afternoon for some much-needed catching up time.  Remember when I lived with this girl & her constant encouragement every.single.day?  Yeah, that was great & I miss it.  Then tonight we'll meet up with her boyfriend (I finally get to meet him!) & go to Live Link!  P.S. You need to check this out ASAP & link in tonight for an awesome worship experience with people all over the world.

{two} Even though I have that fabulous day planned, I'm sitting here in my uniform of choice: leggings & a sweatshirt...& really have no desire at all to put on real clothes.

{three} Last week at Bible Study, the girls & I talked about Anna.  You hear about Anna & Simeon lots of times, but I feel like I really got to know her last week.  In only a few verses, we learn that she was a woman who was willing to serve God no matter what it took.  Her husband died after they'd only been married 7 years & she lived the rest of her life in the Temple.  When others would've been encouraging her to get married again & have children, she chose to serve God in the way He was calling her to.  Goes to show that even when we're in a stage of life that we didn't foresee, or one that may not have been part of our plan, His is much better & brings more glory.  {Read Anna's story in Luke 2.} 

{four} This week I was reunited with my favorite TV friends: Bones & Booth :)

As predicted, within 5 minutes after the show started, my mom & I were planning Booth's girlfriend's death.  I do not like at all that he thinks they are serious as a heart attack.

{five} Last week when I was running, I came across this:

Pretty sure that this is a sign that Booth & I end up together for all eternity.

Sorry, Cait & Kinlie :)

{six} Has anyone else started listening to Christmas music already?  I have & I love it.

{seven} I think I am wayyyy too caught up in Harry Potter.  I'm reading the last book for the 1st time.  I always have a hard time starting those books...I'm intimidated by so many pages.  But, I started early so I would have time to finish it before the movie comes out on November 19.  And...I won't have any problem finishing it by then.  I'm so sucked in to this story that I'm dreaming about You-Know-Who & horcruxes & hallows.  Annnd I'm SO jealous that Meredith is going to the new park over her intercession.  Lucky high school girls with their unnecessary breaks from school.

Ok...guess I should finally put some real clothes on & get moving...
