Tuesdays are still the best nights out.

That would be Jessi enjoying her birthday extravaganza last night, which started at Tequila Park and ended at Lil Charlie’s.

Rule #1 of being in charge of the cake: don’t forget the cake.

That’s right – I got a great big birthday (cookie) cake, brought it to Jessi’s party, AND FORGOT TO GIVE IT TO HER. I did at least sort of make up for it with a new cake today…
“He is the God of the second chance.” I like that.

Amazon makes it quite easy to create your own store. So I decided to create a (still work in progress) GML store!

I get so many requests for my favorite products/books/etc., so I thought it would be nice to have them all in one place.
Even the littlest bit of unplugging can make all the difference in the world.

I actually ended up having an even more productive day than usual when I finally sat down at my computer and just took on my emails all at once. Compartmentalization is underrated.
This.
…and this.
What’s a lesson you’ve learned lately?

What daily devotion do you do?? I’ve seen two pictures from it, and want to look more into it!
Hey lady! I do a few daily devotionals - that excerpt is from God’s Promises Day by Day. I also read Jesus Calling and Cheque Book of the Bank of Faith daily. They’re actually all in my new store too
Looks like SO much fun!
And thank goodness that He is a God of second chances or else I would be nowhere. So grateful for that!!

Cool idea with the store. I’m in the market for an everyday sunscreen, so let me know if you have any recos!
I’m looking for a good one too! My only go-to right now is Aveeno face sunscreen - adding it to my store now
Cute idea with the Amazon store! I definitely have been thinking of getting the B&B Spray since I saw it on your blog post!

Lessons learnt - Do not overbook yourself!! Sometimes I go a bit overboard and forget to schedule time to relax….I don’t realize it until a co-worker will say ” Is sommmmeone a little T&B today?” ( tired and bitchy, haha!) I loved that link you posted about the fear of missing out
love your devo pix…can never get enough of a Jesus fix, and i love how you weave them into the heart of your blog. i always enjoy reading you.
