Today is a good day, a better day than the last.

I woke up this morning to the sound of my alarm and realized by the time I saw on the clock that I had slept through the WHOLE night. *amazed* I think I had dreams, but I can't remember them so I really must have been sleeping good! The odd thing is, I am tired right now :) hehe. Oh well.

Last night I went grocery shopping and kitty food shopping. Lots of deals! I found Fancy Feast Dry Cat Food...the normally expensive stuff (I think Tigger has been getting tired of Meow Mix so I decided to change it up, and to think it I got anything BUT Meow Mix before he wouldn't eat it!) was 5.00 for a 7 lb bag! The cheap Wal-Mart Brand in that size for like 5.27! Anyway...I double checked the tag on the shelf and yup, said it was 5bucks for the 7lb bag, so that bag was now giving company to MY cart! Poor Damon...:) I spent almost $70 on groceries (I used my discount for the first time, woohoo!) and it was almost ALL health food!

I have to work at Wal-Mart tonight, this will be my first night on the floor training! I am nervous yet excited. I think working in the photo lab will be fun and the hours will be A LOT better on the pillow (for sleepy time) than being elsewhere! I think I may go in early to finish up some more of my CBL's aka tests. Get this...After I work tonight I have the WHOLE weekend off! Friday-Sunday! That RARELY happens! Sweet! Poor Damon, in the above paragraph I talked about buying mostly health food...Well I mainly bought stuff for my breakfast and lunch (I am on the curves diet, went by their grocery list) and snacks. Because I will be working during most evenings now, I got him some pizzas to bake. The boy will NOT let me cook stuff, then freeze it for him, to re heat later on for a good home cooked meal! AND, if I make something, he will only eat it one day after it has originally been cooked. Anything more (2-3 days) he won't touch! Now I don't expect him to eat week old Hamburger Helper but...Man...This Man is difficult! So, I can't pre make food to take care of him, AND...I have a funny feeling we will be eating at McDonald's a lot. There is a Mickey D's in the wal-mart where I work, because I work in Photo and they close earlier than everyone else, I won't be eligible for a lunch break (you have to work a 6hour shift for a lunch). I will get a 15 minute break and from the way Damon sounds, he will be meeting me for my breaks to spend time with me. It's kind of sweet and sad at the same time. The first night I was gone at work, my momma had called or he had called her, not sure...She said he missed me. If you know Damon he is NOT a "misser". Even when we were dating 2000 miles away from each other, he rarely missed me. Now I'm gone one evening and he misses me, my poor baby. It felt good to be missed though. ANYWAY, back to McDonald's...I asked him last night if we were going to have to start a McDonald's fund. I was mainly joking...he said we could get a McDonald's card and put money on it. *sigh* he really IS going to come see me that much and our new date spot will be McDonald's in the Hermitage Wal-Mart. Not exactly the fairy tale I imagine 4 years ago...But it works for this girl! I love my hubby!

Ever wonder where money goes? MAN! I got paid yesterday and it's GONE! BILLS BILLS BILLS! And, I'm not even talking about frivolous bills or credit card bills. Damon and I are super good about charging stuff, we DON'T like to charge. Our credit card is for plane tickets and emergencies...That's all we are supposed to use it for. Anyway...Between two cell phones, groceries, water, electricity, rent, car payments, etc.. It disappears. I'm convinced someone is stealing it while we sleeping. LOL! Such is life I guess!

Pray for me today! I am seeking the Lord for something, and I would really appreciate your prayers! I also want to move closer to Him. I was thinking last night how I REALLY wanted to get married and it took 6 years of waiting before I met Damon. I was so fed up on waiting. He was and is SOOOOO worth that wait. He completes me in every way! Now, I have other desires of my heart. I want our own home, that I can make pretty (like Sis Smith and Sis Horne), I want to have a place where I can have my horses, I want a baby, I want to be able to stay home with the baby! Those are my main goals. I look around and I see these things happening for all those around us. I wonder, God my life has been so full of waiting, when is our turn going to come?! I'm tired of waiting! That's when He reminded me of Damon and how long I waited, and how satisfied and rewarded I was FOR waiting and not making my own wants happen, but instead letting God write my love story. Waiting is hard, maybe just for me, but it's hard. I'm very perfectionistic, very much a worrier, and I very much want things done how I want them, and right now. *sigh* I need peace in the waiting. And while I am waiting, I need to feel God, and not think that just because my desires haven't been filled yet, doesn't mean God has forgotten about them. I love the Lord, I WANT to make Him happy. I don't want to serve Him ONLY because of fear of losing Him, but because I also love and want to make Him happy!

Have a great day!
