my cat.

So as you should know, I will be that crazy cat lady when I grow up. Shoot, I may already be that crazy cat lady.. oh well :)

Name: Penelope
Nicknames: Penny, Penne, Penalope, Pennyface, Love, and most often "Cat"
Age: 548 days
Ways in which she is like a dog:
1. She follows me everywhere.
2. She comes when called.
3. She loves her tummy rubbed.
4. She chews stuff; my socks & cardboard included.
Ways in which she is NOT like a dog:
1. She is awesome.

family.

Probably not the application point he intended me to take away from this post; but I took it anyway!

I have friends all over the place -- Mexico, Medford, Waco, Seattle, Monterrey, Bakersfield, California Coast -- so wherever I go, I have family.

this is who i is.

I follow a blog by a woman named Bianca.. she is spunky & in love with Jesus. A while back she wrote this and I wanted to write one too ... however it just wasn't working. Today I was encouraged to be who I is and came up with the following:

I thrive off awkward moments.
I am bad at goodbyes.
I cry a lot.
I enjoy people.
I am an introvert.
I often laugh, especially when i feel nervous.
And I understand the gift of a smile.
I do not love as much as I can, but I am learning to try a lot more.
My family loves me and this is a new found comfort.
I love God and the woman he is making me to be.
I have no idea how God can shape up this ridiculous mess of a person, but I know that He does. Daily.
Patience is rough.
Honesty is beautiful.

And I'll ask you the same question;
in a hundred words or so, who are you?

Galatians 5:22.23.

"But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!" -- Galatians 5.22.23.

If we have the Holy Spirit in us; we have these things in us!! Don’t keep the fruit of Holy Spirit stifled! It is already there, let it be.

Day Two

The orange peels were alright.. until the lost their pazaz, however, the squirt bottle seems to be doing the trick!! I foresee myself refilling the tree water often, considering Cat thinks it is also her's.

Is a cat bothered by water, if they are drinking water?!

Day One

I have never before had a cat and a Christmas Tree at the same time.
I anticipate much entertainment :)
