I Nominate Myself for the "Bad Blogger Award" (and rambles)

I missed Thanksgiving.

I'm seriously a hundred or so posts behind in reading.

I haven't done Tacit Tuesdays in, like, forever.

yahhhhh.....

I lost a follower, also's....Not sure who it was, or what exactly went on there.  That's okay, though.

As for excuses, my grandparents were here this past week, so that was awesome.  They left today =(

On a good note, I've been inspired and have been going through and major cleaning my room.  I bought some wall hanging things, and some Christmas decorations.  I also painted my mirror.  I'm trying to bring out my inner decorator, and it's been wonderful so far. ;)  I have felt inspired to follow what I feel I really like to do; which is decorating.  I posted this on my facebook:



Today I discovered what I really want to do.  I want to be an interior designer/decorator.  Since starting high school I've just been wallowing in so many choices and options, almost "stuck" in them.  But today at Walmart I was looking through some different wall plaques (I bought two of them) and I realized how much I loved truly loved just looking through the different designs.  In clocks and posters.  In fabrics and flowers.  Just being able to take a blank space and make it...beautiful.  And I realized that instead of looking at the rest of my life by thinking of what I "have" to do; like pick a college major, or decide on a career, or get married; I should be looking at what I want to do.  What interests me, what inspires me, and how I can impact others.  I don't have to go to college to be a success.  I don't have to get married someday to be a success.  I can be successful in my everyday life.  So I made up my mind.  I'm not going to keep worrying about what I "have" to do with my future.  I'm going to do what I really love doing; be willing to change if the LORD leads, and just follow Him.  Because that's what really matters."Today I discovered what I really want to do.

 Well, I'll try to post later.  Sorry for my...everything XD     ~Jess

  4. I've been busy too, especially with Christmas coming up..yikes! Tomorrow is the first of DECEMBER! I decorated my room with Christmas decorations as well. Do you put Christmas lights in your room? I love the warmth that they give. :) That is awesome! I've found that I really enjoy doing lots of things, and sometimes I just sit there thinking about all I have to do and never get anything done. :P I think I need to prioritize things a little.. Awesome post! :)

    1. I know, I can't believe December and Christmas as here! It's nuts!! That's awesome! I still need to finish decorating. I know, sometimes thinking about all we have to do keeps us from doing it! We have a plaque in our house that says: "After All Is Said And Done, More Is Said Than Done." ;)

      Thanks!
