Deliciousness!

Hello all! Hope your Saturday is treating you well! If you didn't know, I love smoothies. A lot. Ever since we got our Ninja blender, not a day has passed when I haven't made a smoothie. Smoothies are so awesome because not only do they taste delicious, but they boost your health! If you haven't made a smoothie before, I encourage you to give it a shot, you may just like it! Here's some info I personally use when making my smoothies!

BIG News!


Hello all! Hope you are having a fabulous Friday! I never thought I would ever write those words in the picture above. That, my friends, is the end of my first story. You see I have this problem with not being able to finish the stories I start because I come up with wonderful new story ideas, and leave the others ones to be neglected for all eternity in my idea notebook. But after three years, I finally finished this book. And it has been so exciting to see these words, the end. But as you can see from the "...but only for a little while", I have an idea for a sequel (yay!!). Anyhoo, this is not an incredibly long book, only 120 pages (I have a cover page, and a dedication page as well.) I regret to say I will not be posting any parts of my story on this blog, due to the fact it is not copyrighted. Which leads me to my next little "announcement". I plan to go back through this story and edit it. Then, once that is all done, I'm hoping to try to send it to some publishers. If I get rejected, I get rejected. J.K. Rowling was rejected 12 times before Harry Potter was ever published. So to all you writers out there, I just want to tell you to never stop working hard on your pieces. Even if we never get published, we have our stories, and they can stay with us forever. We can tell them to friends and family. We can use them. Mose importantly, let God take the reigns of your stories, you never know how He can use them. God's power is beyond all comprehension, why not pray and ask Him to use your story? You never know what He could do with it.

Decisions..Decisions...


Hello readers! Hope you are doing well on this fine Wednesday! We make decisions on a day to day basis more than we realize. Most of the time we consider only the big decisions to be actual decisions. Big decisions meaning, choices that change our lives in some way. But every decision is a decision and we should treat them as such. We sometimes overlook the small decisions, not really thinking of how they look in the big picture, and that's where we can go wrong at times. Every choice you make affects someone, including yourself. Whether it's a choice to say something kind to someone who looks like they are having a rough day instead of walking on by and go about your own busy life. Or maybe its to take a deep breath instead of blowing up after a family member has stomped on your last nerve. "Little" decisions can make a big difference too. "Big" decisions just appear to make more of a difference in your daily life. Although big decisions do make a difference, those little decisions (that we have a tendency to cave in and do the wrong thing) can make a long term difference. Whether it's a relationship with a loved one, or just simply following God's will. So, be careful about the decisions you make, big and small. They make a difference in you, and the make a difference in the world. Try it and see what happens.
