I really don’t care about “national blah blah blah week.” I find it silly.
But today is national honesty day and I’ll use any excuse to tell my thoughts on things. Things that swim around in my head just bursting to come out.
Or something like that.
Honestly…I hate posting pictures of myself on my blog. If I could find someone else to wear my clothes and I could be behind the camera, I’d be happier.
Honestly…those last fifteen pounds are the absolute hardest to lose. I’m getting NO WHERE, people.
Honestly…my children are spending the night at my parents’ house this weekend and it can’t come fast enough. And it’s only Tuesday. Geez.
Honestly…I’m feeling distant from my God and my Bible right now. It’s just a feeling and I’m not acting on it, so it’s no ones fault but my own. But that’s where I’m at.
Honestly…I’m more tired than I’ve been in a long time. And I can’t figure out why.
Honestly…I want someone else to find me a new job because doing it on my own isn’t working. Also, I’m lazy.
Honestly…I’m in a dry spell for writing. I write whole posts in my head while I’m driving. I feel inspired and full and bursting to write. But the minute I get in front of the screen, I’m empty of all words.
Honestly…I wish summer would get here and I could be outside all the time.
Honestly…I want nothing more than to go to my favorite restuarant, Shallos, and eat a whole order of their homemade chips and ranch right now. I want to do this just as bad as I want to lose those last fifteen pounds. I am a giant contradiction.
It’s national honesty day…what do you need to get off your chest today?

I’ve been stuck with those last pounds as well. Opting for lots of strength training and protein for a month and then switch to mix of cardio and strength training. I was feeling that tired feeling and tried Iodine pills and it helped…Our relationship with God has ebbs and flows like all relationships in our lives!
Honestly – I don’t understand why my husband doesn’t take his lactaid whatever they are pills every time he eats dairy products.
Honestly – I can’t wait until the construction near my workplace is done and all of those other drivers get off of MY route to work and go back to their own.
Honestly – I don’t like Sean and Peta on Dancing with the Stars.
Honestly – I love my new vacuum cleaner.
Honestly – I have no desire to go out to dinner on Friday night – but we have a groupon that is about to expire.
Honestly – there are some days that by 9:00 am I am already thinking about the beer I want to have as soon as I walk in the door of my home.
How’s that? Also, I understand the relationship thing with God. I’ve always been grateful that His love for me doesn’t depend on how I happen to be feeling on any one particular day. Enjoy your weekend apart from the kiddos!
Honestly- you look great in that outfit! I love it. So many spring colors 🙂
i love the bright colors and florals too 🙂 and as much as i am inspired, i honestly wear gym like clothes most days while im home, unless i have to go somewhere important. and then dress in my dance attire at night. hot stuff. 😉
and, last week our pastor matt spoke on discipline, it was good. i needed to hear it!! if you got some time, the sermons are online somewhere at http://www.thegatheringcc.com.
…and, what kind of job are you wanting?
I’m always inspired to write when I either don’t have a computer or don’t have time to write! That’s so frustrating!
Honestly, you’re adorable! 😉
Thanks for linking up with us!
Hope to see you again next week!
Honestly, those colors are BEAutiful together! And you’re so cute!
I wish my parents lived closer to us so that we could do the occasional weekend sleepover! Lucky you! lol
Honestly…I don’t understand why my parents cannot let me be. My husband and I recently stopped going to church. There were some issues we had with the doctrine there…gay rights specifically…we see nothing wrong with it..but that’s for another day. I am STILL a christian. I STILL live for God. I STILL know why he died on the cross…but now that I don’t go to church I am this awful terrible bad influence person who constantly gets texts and messages via facebook that “God isn’t in my life, or if He is no one else can see it…”
maybe too much honesty.
maybe looking for advice.
thanks for asking.

Megan, I wish I could reply to you via email but you didn’t leave an email address so here we go:
I’m sorry you’re feeling pressure from people that should just love you. Until Jesus comes back, Christians will be fighting about what we think is God honoring, like it’s up to us to be the judge. It’s sad, but true. Because we’re flawed and human. It’s our greatest downfall. 🙂
I do understand and believe in the power of cooperate worship and being in community with other believers though too. So taking a break is completely understandable and it doesn’t mean you’re not a Christian anymore. But never going back (somewhere!) isn’t good either. Find a church you feel comfortable in, that you feel is God-honoring, and that makes you feel His presence. We’re never going to agree on everything and so many churches divide over things that truly don’t really matter. Just know that there has to be a good place for you and your husband and that you should eventually look for that.
I’m praying that relationships will be healed and you’ll find where you guys belong. What’s best for our parents isn’t what’s best for us and sometimes that’s hard for them to understand. Praying hard, Mary
