This Weekend
This weekend I helped a friend who is getting married next week (7-7-07, which I've heard is one of the most popular wedding dates ever) make dozens and dozens of cookies for her reception. I am to be a bridesmaid in her wedding. It was fun to see my old friends from back home.
This morning, I met with some friends for prayer and Bible study. We just started going through a book on the names of God. It has been good for me to get back into the habit of spending time alone with the Lord every day. Hubby and I read together out of a one-year Bible every morning, but I am better at really listening to the Lord and meditating on His Word when I take some time on my own, as well.
I am thinking of doing a "day in the life of me" post sometime soon....I haven't known where our digital camera was since we moved, but Hubby informed me recently that he's known where it was all along! :-) I'm also considering doing pictures of a week in skirts, like I know some ladies have done on their blogs before. I do wear pants sometimes, but I really prefer to wear skirts, as I feel much prettier and more feminine, and it seems like I get more done (same goes for wearing an apron...).
I have lost around 8 pounds so far on the South Beach Diet in the week-and-a-half that I've been on it. I'm feeling really good.

Good job on the diet! Did you stay away from those cookies you were baking?! ;-)
(it's ok if you ate one, I wouldn't have been able to refuse :-P)
Stephanie, yup, I did stay away from the cookies; in fact, I think I've made cookies about 5 times in the past week-and-a-half for various reasons, but I haven't eaten one! :-) It's easier for me to draw the line at zero and not even have a taste, because otherwise I'd probably end up eating several. I need to grow in self-control.
