Lunch With Annette


Here is me and Annette-at Italianos!


Me and my beloved in my new Siesta shirt- Thank you Angie!!!!



I was so excited to meet Annette. She was so gracious to come in my direction for lunch. We met at a small little Italian restaraunt in Humble- (said Umble) true Texans do not say their H-(another topic)
Funny- we both got there- she must have beat me to the restaraunt and they sat her right away. I get there thinking that she had not arrived, and they seat me, on the other side of the restaraunt- where I could not see her. After like 10 minutes, I thought-hmm wonder if she got lost or could not find the place- inspite of GPS. So I call- and she is sitting on the other side of the partition!

I was so excited and nervous I could not even eat! I was truly out of my element. I talked, and talked and talked!!!( I truly hope I did not scare her away!) She is truly beautiful inside and out! Did you all know she goes to Beth Moore's church? I thought that was an awesome tidbit of information!(haha) We talked about our husbands, our children, moving to Texas, just about everything under the sun. I was so sad when it had to end- I could not believe the time went so fast. I was so beside myself- that our dear Annette pick up lunch and I never thanked her- Isnt that so RUDE of me? I feel terrible- absolutely Terrible!!!!! I hope I really did not blow it with her! The icing on the cake- I had prepared a small bagged gift for her- and left it at home, and did not even remember it till I was pulling out of the parking lot! BOY do I feel stupid!

So tell me ladies have you ever had moments in your life where you feel like you really messed it all up with someone?
Time to SHARE!!!! (help me feel better!)

    Well, first of all, if you were rude, I can't imagine you on a good day! You were such a delight to me, and what joy to finally put a sweet face and voice to the beautiful heart I've met on your blog. The good company, and good food btw, was such fun Friday! We'll have to meet again soon. Love you, Annette

    Rumor has it y'all had a great time! Sorry to use that Texan word. It just seemed to come out naturally! I'm so glad you had such a good lunch! I don't think you could be rude if you tried to be! I love your new picture and it's definitely not scary! :)
    I hope you are having a nice Saturday!
    Love,
    Angie xoxo

    p.s. The shirt looks great on you! How sweet that you had your picture taken with it! I'm so glad you were able to enjoy a little something from the Siesta Fiesta... See, I told you you'd be there in Spirit!

    Angie,

    How could you have been rude? Been there done that. I met a friend for the first time a couple of years ago and Memphis, and all I could do was hug her and cry...

BFS #124 - The Easy Button

Assignment - This week I would like you to post any prayer requests you have. What is going on in your life that you need prayer warriors for? When this assignment came through I was going to share  prayer request for a much needed rental home, and new job for my beloved, but in a blink of an eye those things were no longer a concern. A truly serious, and sobering matter occurred. I was not sure how to share with all of you this matter- and how desperate I was. I was not sure how to even lift my eyes towards heaven for fear that he would not hear me, or not even want what I was wanting.  I was not sure I could handle a loss of my child. My baby- my eldest- He is 18 years old, 6 days ago he started to develop these sharp pains that would shoot to the back of his eyes. At first he described them as a headache, but he realized it was not headache, and started to complain more of the pain, and stated that pain relievers were not working. I made a doctors appointment. When the do...

Goodbye Facebook...Hello thoughts...

Well I did... I took the plunge and deactivated my facebook. It is amazing how much of a time consumer it is. It eats time like you would not believe. I am hoping, praying with this new found time, and lack of distraction that it will give me motivation to blog more. As my young men get older, move closer and closer in considering that step towards becoming one with someone.. I have come to realize there are so many resources out there pointed at men and what they need to do, or what they need to be as men to get married. The sad thing is there is hardly anything for young women. Today I challenge Paul to look at a questionaire done by Stacey and James McDonald( you can find it on Staceys  blog thesacredcalling.com)  that they put together for young suitors for their daughters. After reading it he came down so heavy hearted. Guess the realization of the spiritual, emotional and physical responsibilities of it all became very burdensome. Of course I shared how we could do noth...

Saying "I love you"...

Thinking about these words. These words that are to express our deepest emotions. These words that are to leave us vunerable and open, just do not seem to have the impact they use to. Many people use these words so fleeting. They use them as if to say "thank you", or "I thought about you today". For me "I love you" is not an easy thing to say. If I say I love you- I mean it from way down deep in my heart. They are not just words to be said but also words, that are to be put into action. Have you ever thought about that? When someone says "I love you", do they show through their actions that they love you?  or do they leave you going Huh, really? I have had those thoughts, wondering if the person who has declared their love really does love me because actions speak louder than words to me. I hear their words but then on the other hand see their actions and  they do not act like a person who even cares about my well being. Jesus never states in the...
