Mondays are not for weenies

Mondays are just no fun. Let's be honest here...no one likes Mondays. Mondays make you get up early and be productive. That's totally uncalled for. But it happens anyway so I guess we have to suck it up and go to work. I love my work...I just don't like early. Mornings are hateful. I'm trying to do better about getting up earlier. I downloaded an app called First5. It works like an alarm. You set it for a time in the morning and when it sounds, it gives you a little devotional to start your day with the Lord. It also has some deeper moments to study more throughout the day. I'm only a few days in, but I love it! It's a great opportunity to get up early with Jesus instead of a bad attitude. I'm excited! I still need 30 minutes of silence when I get up in the morning though. Today, I am thankful for Jesus, who is so loving and forgiving, I can't even understand it. I am so grateful that He loves me. He loves this crazy, sassy lady and I am in awe of His love. If you don't know Him, please message me! I would love to share with you about what He has done in my life! I am also thankful for Jen Hatmaker! Her new book, For the Love, is so hilarious, but also hits so many truths that we all need to hear! I made pizza tonight for dinner using her recipe and it is always a hit! I just still can't believe that I made dough and sauce from scratch...I'm so giddy over it! Thankful #3 my Macy girl! She is so spunky and imaginative. I love her sweet spirit with a side of sass. I've been thinking so much about how this is her last year to be a "baby." She will start preschool next school year. I have so many anxieties, but I know she will do great! Weight loss thought today: I didn't ate a wrap for lunch. Win. I had pizza for dinner. Loss. (It was all homemade though so I took some processing junkiness out of it soooo...half win. This is going to be a long process, but I have so many of you out there that are supportive. Thanks so much! Love you dearly!
