I am woman...hear me whine.

Day 12: Write about what wears you out as a woman.

WHERE DO I EVEN BEGIN!?

Laugh all you want dear friend, but you're right there with me.

Let's see...should I start with the that happy time of the month? Where I just have flocks of people wanting to be around me.
Or how about the fact that at a certain age my whole body just said 'haha, can you keep up'.
Or how about the fact that I'll have to give birth to children.
Or how about the fact that later in life I'll get hot flashes and be even crazier than I already am.
Or how about the fact that I have to shave my legs or people think I'm weird; don't even get me started on the arm pits. OH and it all grows back twice as fast.
Or how about the fact that UNLIKE my husband, I 'watch my weight'.
Or how about the fact that it takes me too long to get ready because I 'don't have anything to wear'.


I hope you're laughing like I am :)

In all seriousness, it wears me out just being a woman. Try as I might, I'm not perfect and I sometimes care too much about what other people think.
It's tiring trying to be the woman. But someone has to do the job!

But say it with me girlfriend: boys are grossed and thank you Lord for making me a beautiful woman!


There's this organic restaurant/market down the road form our apartment, and today we ventured off to: The Jungle.
The whole restaurant is set up like you're really in the jungle.
A large note for my readers who don't know me too well:
I am not the organic type of girl.
I don't really think I'm cool enough to pull off the 'organic' thing either.
So this was a big deal.

(there was actually a waterfall behind us)

It was AmAzInG! Seriously. I got a Veggie Flatbread with chicken and all sorts of yummy veggies.
We'll be back.

Then we ventured to Wally World...in the middle of the day. Boy was that exciting. Not to mention since we live beach side and it is spring break, it's fun to people watch. Does anyone up north know that SPF will help? :)

It's been a wonderful day!
How has your day been?

Hi there! Thank you for the comment on my blog! :o) You are so sweet.

I was very happy when I came across your blog. You seem so grounded and focused on Christ. You have already had a positive influence on me. And I know I'm not the first.

It's nice to "meet" you!!
