If you’re close to me, you know that lately, I’ve been trying to make things in my life…a little more … simple.

I’ve been consolidating and getting rid of the things that I don’t necessarily need.

So, I decided to reflect this in my blog theme as well. Hopefully it will also decrease the load time as well.

Anyways…this weekend was pretty cool.

We participated in the 5k UNCF Los Angeles Walk For Education around our Alma Mater (USC) & Exposition Park. It was great to be able to get out and hang… La Shia and I finished 11th in the run. But I promise my ankle was dying on the last mile. While crossing Exposition, I twisted my ankle on the uneven street…but I kept running on it anyways. The only thing I was thinking was… “Don’t swell. Please …just…don’t swell before I finish.” And it didn’t. It waited until I got back to Christal’s house… a ha.

But definitely fun to do…

Christal and I spent the afternoon talking and hanging out. Love you. Mean it.

Today, we went to church as usual…and after, we caught up on The Ultimate Fighter. I love that show. I caught up on Keeping Up with the Kardashians too…lol

Welp…I’m gonna grab some water and head to bed. I have a dentist appointment tomorrow that I’m not super excited about. I already know they’re going to tell me that I need to have a tooth pulled. Urgh.

I was tagged a few weeks ago…and I’m slow so bare with me as I try to catch up…lol

1. link the person who tagged you… Sheita

2. mention the rules in your blog… oh…just copy these (1-5)

3. tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours

I like to keep the refrigerator as clean as possible. So much so that I’ll put the gallon of milk on a plastic plate so that it doesnt leave a puddle on the clear shelf.

I like drinking lots of water before I go to sleep.

I tend to go to my office wearing gym clothes so that I dont have an excuse not to go when I leave.

I can remember numbers, but I can’t put names with faces to save my life, let alone remember names.

Whenever I check the mail, if there’s nothing exciting…I tend to leave it in the mailbox for a few days…

4. tag 6 following bloggers by linking them

Rece, Inga, A.dot, Golden, I’m too tired to find someone else who hasnt done it yet…and if you have, and I tagged you?…..OOPS.

5. leave a comment on each of the tagged blogger’s blogs letting them know they’ve been tagged

Done.

Alright…sleep tight. Hope you enjoy the new look.

Stay Blessed.

If you could take charge of your life and manifest your destiny… what would you do? Where would you go?

It is so easy to sit back and say “If this or that hadn’t happened, I would be doing this”…

Why not just…do it?

It may sound crazy, but sometimes failure IS an option. I mean, sometimes failing at one thing…opens the door to something new and better. Maybe we should be looking at failure as a stepping stone up, rather than a kick to the side.

I dunno…just my random two cents.

My prayer today is that the Lord “Make Me Over“…

shall prosper…

I know a few people who are really just going through it lately…and I pray that everything works out for them. I truly do.

I’ve been sitting here listening to my gospel music in the office. *If a client walks in, they’ll be immersed in the spiritualness… and know not to mess with me. *

And I was just listening to good old Fred Hammond and humming… “No Weapon Formed Against Me”…

God is good…and all will be OK. Promise. *humming*

He may not answer when you want Him to, but He’s always on time…

(Chorus)
No weapon formed against me shall prosper, it won’t work
No weapon formed against me shall prosper, it won’t work

God will do what He say He would do
He will stand by His word
And He will come through
God will do what He say He would do
He will stand by His word
And He will come through

(Chorus)
No weapon formed against me shall prosper, it won’t work
No weapon formed against me shall prosper, it won’t work

God will do what He said He would do
He’s not a man that He should lie
He will come through
God will do what He said He would do
He will stand by His word
He will come through

(Bridge)
Oh I won’t be afraid of the arrows by day
From the hand of my enemy
I can stand my ground with the Lord on my side
For the snares they have set will not succeed

(Chorus)
No weapon formed against me shall prosper, it won’t work
No weapon formed against me shall prosper, it won’t work

For I Know God Will do(said he would do it) What he said he would do(said he would do it)
He will stand by his word(stand by his word), he will come through
God will do what(said he would do it) he said he he’s gonna do(said he would do it) stand by his word(stand by his word) NO NO NO WAY!

(Chorus)
No weapon formed against me shall prosper, it won’t work
No weapon formed against me shall prosper, it won’t work
It won’t work Dont be afriad of the arrows or the snares that… if you beielve say you OOOO

There just aint one(there just aint one)
There just aint one(there just aint one)
No Weapon

I guess as soon as I start to excel in one area, I slack off in another…*sigh*.

I haven’t really had a chance to post in a few days. My bad. This week is flying by so fast. I feel like it was just. Sunday.

Random Thoughts for Wednesday:

• Thank God for Lysol wipes…
• Who ever thought choosing a paint color for an office would be so damn hard?
• I forgot Flavor of Love (Season 3) had already started.
• There are so many interesting people in the blogosphere…and I’m glad to have a good mix of acquaintances.
• God’s an awesome God…
• Time to get back on track with my training program. Hopefully I can get my body on a new schedule once I get the office setup and get used to driving to an office every morning. Maybe waking up at 5am is going to be the key to still being able to hit the gym in the morning. I’ll just have to take an earlier cycling class.
• I’m looking for a heavy flash programmer for contract work. If you know anyone, have them email me.

A new episode of The Gauntlet III is about to come on…must go.

Hope that you had a Happy Hump Day!

this Sunday…

Something about going to Church the first Sunday of the year makes you all tingly inside.

It’s like starting the year off fresh and exciting and new…

Fun Fun Fun!
