I drink non-alcoholic beverages.
What did one little boy say to the other little boy?
You're a fun guy!
I dont really know what was on my mind. . .but I thought I would share. Okay, if you don't get the little boy joke, it is supposed to be what did one mushroom say to the other? Your a fungi! Get it? Yeah, my sister cracked me up asking what one little boy said to the other.
Life is getting harder, but it gets better as the semester goes on. Its great actually. Wouldn't change it for the world. Wait, this is my world.
I am going to go play baseball with a 5 year old.
Fabulous!!

Positive and Encouraging
The title of my blog is "Fabulous You". (Obviously). One thing that made me want this title is to bring some encouragement to someone else. Yeah, my life is not always the way it should be, but in reality, who's is? Just knowing that what I put on here is in my life, someone may be looking at it and thinking, hey, I've been there too. I guess I just wanted to put this here to let others know that they are not alone.
I am a big "Air 1" fan. You should listen. In Fayetteville/Spring Lake, NC the radio station is 89.3. If you are not in this area, and have access to a computer (BTW if you're reading this, you have no excuse) go to the link at the top and listen online. There are lyrics and all sorts of fun stuff. Its positive and encouraging air1.
Just some more ideas of how to help make life a little easier. Some are helpful. Others may not be as much help. You can look, or you don't have to. Its all you.
1. Pray
2. Go to bed on time.
3. Get up on time so you can start the day unrushed.
4. Say No to projects that won't fit into your time schedule, or that will compromise your mental health.
5. Allow extra time to do things and to get to places.
6. Pace yourself. Spread out big changes and difficult projects over time; don't lump the hard things all together.
7. Take one day at a time.
8. Separate worries from concerns. If a situation is a concern, find out what God would have you do and let go of the anxiety. If you can't do anything about a situation, forget it.
9. Live within your budget; don't use credit cards for ordinary purchases.
10. K.M.S. (Keep Mouth Shut). This single piece of advice can prevent an enormous amount of trouble.
11. Do something for the Kid in You everyday.
12. Get enough rest.
13. Eat right.
14. Get organized so everything has its place.
15. Write down thoughts and inspirations.
16. Every day, find time to be alone.
17. Having problems? Talk to God on the spot. Try to nip small problems in the bud. Don't wait until it's time to go to bed to try and pray.
18. Remember that the shortest bridge between despair and hope isoften a good "Thank you Jesus."
19. Laugh.
20. Laugh some more!
21. Take your work seriously, but not yourself at all.
22. Develop a forgiving attitude (most people are doing the bestthey can).
23. Be kind to unkind people (they probably need it the most).
24. Talk less; listen more.
25. Slow down.
26. Every night before bed, think of one thing you're grateful for that you've never been grateful for before. GOD HAS A WAY OF TURNING THINGS AROUND FOR YOU. "If God is for us, who can be against us?"(Romans 8:31)
You have a great day!

Choir Tour 2006
What: CU Choir Tour
When: March 2, 2006 thru March 9, 2006
Where: OBX NC
Who: Hmm obviously the University Choir, but I may be wrong.
After having second thoughts about going on tour, this week was completely different than I thought it would be. We went to several churches and a shopping mall to sing. Pretty exciting huh? The friendships I made and the fun I was able to have still blows my mind. I guess God wanted me to see things in a different light, and I was really able to. It was really a fabulous trip, but I am so glad to be home and be able to rest a bit and see some of my friends and family here. I wouldnt take back this trip for anything.
We had to stay each night with a different "host home" which was a family that had offered to house a few of us in the choir for the night. Great homes actually. I stayed with Megan. Great girl. Became really good friends because of it. God showed me a lot throughout the events that occured in the trip. Dont want to say what they are but I have basically learned that I really need to trust in him to direct me.
Last night when I got home, I had to meet with my small group, for the 40 days of purpose campaign that my church is doing. For my first meeting I was able to really enjoy just learning and spending time with more people. I am really excited about what else is going to happen throughout the rest of the semester.
Well, got two more days without my family here with me, but I needed some ME time definately.
I'm out~
