A whole week -- day 7

Creativity was my challenge for today. When I was little I used to have the most creative mind, and since growing up I've become less and less creative, or maybe I've just faded from using my creativity and imagination to work for me... But today I had to pull out the creative juices.

I had a work meeting this AM. My very first one with 101 ESPN, it was fun. It was different. It was short. Our boss gave us one challenge. We had to come up with one revenue generating idea... Sounds easy right? I was so nervous. I'm the "newbee" on staff and I want to make a good impression. I am trying had to do my best job I can, so I was very worried I wouldn't be able to come up with anything... Right after I got home from the meeting (it was an am meeting I work in the evenings) I laid down and tried to let my mind wander and let my creativity flow freely. It worked! I got and idea and I must say I feel like it was a pretty good idea. I emailed my proposed revenue generating idea to  my boss... Hope he likes it.

At work tonight I made my first mistake! I know mistakes have to happen for people to learn, but I wanted so badly to be perfect! I recovered and all is good, it wasn't a terrible mistake.. I just want to make sure it never happens again!

Tomorrow is a big day for me. I will be finishing school. Whether I like it or not. I am done at Broadcast Center. I am done! I am ready for more!

I read 2 more books in the Bible today! I am so close to being done!!! I cannot wait to finish and say I read the entire Bible during a year!! It really is amazing how much reading the Bible can change your life. How much talking to the Lord can change your life! It's AWESOME! My brother is trying to convince me to switch cell phones with him. I told him if he promises to read the Bible I will trade him phones! I really hope he takes me up on the offer and I hope he sees what amazing things happen with you turn your life to the Lord 100%!

I am so tired and I have a HUGE day tomorrow!
So God Bless! :)

Day 6

Here we are at another day! I can't believe I've made it to day 6. And I'm actually enjoying doing this... I think my blogs are boring, but this is still fun for me. I can't wait to see how much has happened over a 30 day span of time. Just to see how the Lord works in my life will be AMAZING!!

So yesterday I took a huge risk and sent out over 500 emails...Only got one response... and the guy who responded told me that the textbooks his school uses provides the services... I was bummed, but couldn't have been more grateful for his call! I feel like the Lord made him call as a way of showing me this was not the path he wanted me to go down... I love putting all of my faith in the Lord, I don't have to worry about anything I know he will take care of me.

Today I went in to work for a quick bit, I wasn't scheduled but I have to run a play-by-play game on Sunday, I've never done one so I went in tonight to witness the insanity that goes along with running the game. I'm slightly nervous, but I know the Lord wouldn't give me any task I can't handle, and I know he will be with me Sunday to make sure the show runs smoothly and I do a great job. Plus the 101 ESPN radio team has been phenomal to me, it's impossible not to believe in yourself when you have so many wonderful people believing in you!

Only 2 more days of school left and I will officially have a degree in broadcast journalism! - Now I just need the Lord to guide me and make sure I am doing what he wants me to do with the degree!

Can't wait for tomorrow! An ENTIRE week! Yes!

God Bless!

Day 5... -- The Risk

Today I took a HUGE risk... a least a big risk for me... I'm attempting to do some freelance work. I would love to read textbooks to help students with disabilities. So Today I emailed every superintendent in Missouri... all 568 of them! (I believe the total count was 568 but don't quote me on that) I sent the emails at about 5:00 before I even finished sending them I had a response from one of them asking me to give him a call about my services... I hope and pray that this is what the Lord is guiding me to do. I honestly feel like it is. I have been praying about it and really putting all of my strength in knowing He is guiding me... I told myself if the Lord wants me to do this he will have at least 20 of the superintendents respond. Once 20 have responded I will starting expanding to different states! This is a big risk for me. I just keeping going back to Matthew 7:

^"7Ask, and you will receive. Search, and you will find. Knock, and the door will be opened for you. ⁸Everyone who asks will receive. Everyone who searches will find. And the door will be opened for everyone who knocks."

I am so excited about this venture. I am so nervous for tomorrow. To call the gentlemen that responded. I hope the Lord gives me the confidence, knowledge and ability to allow this man to let me help out his school. It would be my privilege.

Today I made my mom dinner. It was more of a juice. Fresh fruits and vegetable juice... The drink was call super duper spicy tomato juice! She is always sick so I am trying to help her get healthier. She is the most unhealthy eater in the world, so some fresh fruits and veggies juice up should do her some good! She said she liked it! I really help I can get her to change her eating habits, I want her to be around to watch my kiddos grow up one day!


I made it to day 5 I can't believe it! Now, until day 6!
God Bless!

Day 4...

Yesterday was quite a day... I wanted to write this yesterday and when I got home to write it a small crisis of sorts was there for me to take care off...

Yesterday was by far one of the laziest days I've had in a while. When my brother asked what I did, I said... woke up, went to breakfast, took a nap, and went to the dog park... WHAT A DAY!!!! Or half of a day, the 2nd half was much more eventful...

After my brother picked me up we drive 3 hours home to St. Louis, on the ride home I read the bible and managed to read 1/2 of Romans and the ENTIRE 1st Corinthians... I felt so accomplished!!!

When we got home we realized we had left the refrigerator door wide open! WHO DOES THAT!!!! (apparently me) I had to go through the entire fridge and throw out almost everything, then go up to the store and buy all new essentials! ONLY I would do something like that! It was very frustrating and I am trying to figure out the lesson I am supposed to learn from this experience. Obviously I know to shut the fridge door, at least I thought I knew the shut the fridge door. Maybe the lesson is to take my time and not always be in a rush to make things happen. I was rushing out the door to get to Kansas and clearly looked past shutting the door. Hopefully as I get some time away from the experience I will be able to laugh at it and really understand what God's lesson for me.

Until next time!
God Bless

Day número 3!

Today was a pretty good day! It's great to be home with my friends! Today was a very fun fall day, after waking up we took our girls (2 doggies) to the dog park! We go to a really awesome dog park that has a lake and nature trails and a big field for the girls to run, Eva loves to swim and we purposefully avoided the water today and she knew it! I felt really bad but I know she still loved it as much as usual.

After the dog park my friend Tina went shopping -- I bought Adam a brand new outfit and got myself nothing, I find it so much more rewarding getting stuff for him and making him happy and he looked so handsome tonight! (I did take a picture and I'm going to put the picture in a box and make the outfit an Xmas present but I had to give him it early)

After shopping we came home and took naps! Naps are the greatest! After my nap I prayed and read the Bible, it is so fantastic getting to spend my time with him everyday, just getting to relax and read his word!

Finally we went to see a comedy show and play games at Dave and Busters!

All and all it was a pretty good day!

Until tomorrow (or I guess later today!)
God Bless!!!

P.S. Kassie you're such an incredible person, thank you for taking the time to read this! It is helping keep me motivated to follow through with this goal I've set for myself! All my love!

The All Important Day 2

I am here!! I promise I had every intention of writing yesterday but it turned out to be a whopper of a day full of busy errands. I was supposed to have class yesterday but I skipped it! I feel terrible and I know everyday I don't go puts me one day farther from graduation but I am so burnt out! Maybe the long weekend break was good for me and I can finish up strong next week! I can do it! I can do it!

So after running a couple of errands I came home, cleaned and packed for Kansas City and around 2:49 Lou and I headed out the door and made it to Kansas in record time!

Upon my arrival to Kansas I was greeted by my two wonderful doggies and my amazing boyfriend! He made me dinner and took me to a cupcake shop for a fun dessert! - he's pretty good to me.

The rest of the night was mundane-- we watched Modern Family and went to bed!

I've been thinking a lot lately about what the Lord wants me to do with my broadcasting degree! I wish the answers were so clear. It is so hard for me to be patient and let him work his miracles! I am seriously so excited tho! I can't wait to say yes to whatever challenge he throws my way! With Him by my side I can handle them all!

Side note: I am typing this from my iPod so I apologize for the typos! I am a terrible typist in the first place to add touch screen to it is kind of tricky! But when there's a will there's a way!

Until day 3!!! God Bless <3
