I plan on sleeping for like 12 hours tonight. lol
Go for it! It'll feel nice.

Last year, I had the stomach flu. I was up from 9 PM until about 5:30 AM, doing stomach flu-y things once or twice an hour (lovely, I know). It was terrible. I took a few naps throughout the next day on the couch, but I didn't want to throw off my sleep schedule too much. That night, I didn't set my alarm for the morning, I thought, "My body will just wake up when it wants." I expected to sleep 9 or 10 hours. I slept for 14. 14!! And didn't wake up ONCE.

It was awesome. :p

Yeah...it was every fifteen or 20 minutes for me. Slowed down to an hour at like 3...Dad got me an anti-nausea pill and said if that didn't work he was gonna take me to the hospital for the dehydration. Thank God it worked. I slept throughout the day till about 5. I'm so tired though and I think I threw my back out.

14 hours of sleep sounds awesome. :)

I made 4 ingredient chocolate chip cookies.

They are...good. Which means I shouldn't have made them, but maybe I'll just phrase it as, "I am teaching myself self-control". :cool:

I wouldn't imagine there would be too many 4 ingredient recipes out there, but the one I used is: 1 cup sugar, 1 cup peanut butter, 2 eggs, 2 cups chocolate chips. Is that the one you found? :)

For those wondering, they don't taste that much like peanut butter. I was worried they would, because as much as I like peanut butter, I don't like peanut butter cookies that much.

Yeah, there was one with overripe mashed bananas, peanut butter, oats, and chocolate chips. I thought that sounded really good. Both recipes sound good, actually, and I'll probably try both. :D

So I tried to get some extra sleep this morning, but this buzzing kept on waking me up. I thought it was either a fly or a stinkbug, and I searched to kill it.
Instead I find a bee crawling on my window sill. Now here I am on my parents' desktop wondering how the heck it got in and what the heck should I do...

Maybe the Canadian diplomatic approach is sometimes preferable...
Maybe learn the definition of "TACT"
Being able to say to the fire starter, talking in such a nice direct way, that when you are done they look forward to the trip to hell?

Taking it at ease what others try to start, is being aware of selfish attitudes, there are many of us, but only with a dream of being the center of the universe, and just can't let go of it, being the center and everyone else orbits around them, and when one does not they orbit as a helicopter around that one that quit paying attention to them

A common factor to all nature, we want to be accepted right?
So we have what we have, a centered being, trying to fill the whole in one's and our heart, that can only truly be filled by Christ through Father, and led by Father in the Holy Spirit of Father, the same Holy Spirit that led Christ

Christ was never the center, think deeply, he never put himself as the center, he put Father as the center.
What does Father do in return? Makes Son the center, not self
So when one comes to Christ, we make Christ the center along with Father, and what does Father and Son do in reply?
By you not being the center you are the center in reply from Jesus and Father. no fighting over selfishness in wanting to be the center, one is by not
there is a saying in the movie enter the dragon, where Bruce lee says his style of fighting is " the art of fighting, is not fighting"
Get it? I pray

I got some virus, which isn't hard for me to do. I basically slept for five days, had headaches, woke up all dehydrated and stuff. It was a lot of fun. I greatly enjoyed it.
That is cute, and glad you made it; been there before and not easy to count it as all joy, yet when one can I think that is when we make it through faster, at least this is what I have noticed when i send out the praise and worship band somehow evil, looses its hold

Job is nothing more than showing us are we willing to go the distance and stay trusting Father no matter what, through thick and thin
Job did not curse God, as God said Job would not in the first Chapter as he told Satan Job would not, so I see will "I", and so far not. Anyone else see Job as our "JOB" to endure to the end, no matter what?

In the twinkling of an eye, life is like a kaleidoscope, one little turn and everything changes, whether good or bad, it is our choice to see past the circumstance we are in. trust God and none other all in all

Creepy spider is creepy.


I don't typically like spiders, but I think that one's actually kind of cute. He looks like he's got his hands up on his face in excitement, waiting for someone to sing in the shower.

I'm going to tell myself that the next time there's a spider in the shower.
