I am so excited about this weekend! First, I get to take my time getting ready this morning because I don't have to be at CERC to work until 10am. I LOVE getting up early, drinking coffee, starting some laundry, reading blogs, relaxing with time to spare. To top off a perfect morning routine, Jeff is off today. He is rarely off on Saturday, so it's a real treat to have him home. Of course he's off running, then he'll pull weeds in the yard while I do my own thing, but I love just knowing he's here. It makes me happy. Did I mention I get to work (like make money, people!) BY MYSELF for FOUR HOURS??? I am extremely thrilled about it! I haven't been alone much for 5 months due to a family situation that I can't discuss on here. If you know me well enough to even know about my blog, you probably already know what I'm talking about. We are still healing...all of us. Back to my lovely weekend...
After working BY MYSELF today, we are heading to Southlake to shop at Williams Sonoma (thank you Darcy!!) so I can use my gift card, eat at Anamia's, and then go to my favorite church, Gateway! There are times that I long to go to this church. It's just so amazing. I can't even describe how much I feel at home while there. My heart aches to go back. Jeff and I wish we lived close enough to attend every week and really get involved, but we don't. sigh.
Tomorrow morning we are attending a church in Plano to hear an author of a book Jeff is reading speak. I am anticipating a great service there as well. Does it get any better?? Time alone, Jeff off work to hang out with the kids, shopping, mexican food, and lots of JESUS! Woo hoo! I am pumped about this weekend!!
