Most of you are probably familiar with the Lap Band. Maybe
you’ve seen the “roaring hungry lion” commercial or have read about this weight
loss surgery in a magazine. Maybe you’ve even undergone surgery and have a band
yourself! Either way, I thought I’d share my thoughts about some discoveries
along my journey.
I was Banded in July 2010. I’m small framed, 4’10”. I made
the decision to be Banded not only because I have a history of losing and
gaining weight multiple times in my 27 years, but also because of hormone,
spinal health, and ultimately insuring a better future (not to mention I was
hovering over the ____lb mark). |

Tax Season:Two words that make most people cringe (unless
you’re a CPA). It’s that time of year
again! This is a time of year that our budget and finances (which have always,
most likely, been an issue) force their way into your brain and wiggle out in a
frown. Don’t you hate it? I just spent several hours printing up my statements
and swimming through all of the medical and personal receipts- not fun. Just the
topic of taxes make me want to curl up inside myself and not peek until after
April 15. |

 My life is pretty simple, non-plus and organized. I don't like change, I only like consistency. For those
of you who automatically dislike this fact, please read on, as this is about to
change. I categorize and label everything, am up to speed on the laundry and
cleaning, and am even a superwoman animal owner (2 cats, 2 dogs, 2 guinea
pigs). My home life consists of cooking, cleaning, backyard bonfires, moderate
exercise, and sending an extensive amount of love to my animals. Nothing crazy,
unexpected or out of the ordinary; routine. |

This morning, I opened up my tattered and worn copy of Cowman's Streams in the Desert and this is part of the passage for the day. I really needed to hear this today, and thought that I may not be the only one!
“If we look back upon the past, many of us will find that very time our Heavenly Father has chosen to do the kindest things for us, and given us the richest blessings, has been the time we were strained and shut in on every side.
God’s jewels are often sent us in rough packages and by dark liveried servants, but within we find the very treasures of the King’s palace and the Bridegroom’s love. |

 The news warns us of record highs, dangerous air quality and
protecting pets, elderly and children in this heat wave. You come inside from a
quick walk to the mailbox drenched- gross! At this point in a heat wave, your
body and your mind are telling you to stay in and stay cool.
But what about putting yourself in a stressful situation? Your
body may through up a red flag or two, then through up a white one and just
surrender. Are you the type to fight these dangerous situations or surrender? |

 Step One: God sets up a beautiful style of DOMINOS in a design we can't even see from our perspective.
Step Two: Sometimes God rearranges these DOMINOS as He has always known He would. Whether this be allowing Satan to move, push, or take away a few, God always knows best for your purpose.
Step Three: Allow the rearranging, falling, and even tipping of these DOMINOS to happen. take a deep breath during this step. You'll need it. Let your anxieties peak without freaking out, allowing your brain to understand that this situation has a purpose.

This morning on my way to the office, the famous Cook Mrs. Paula Dean herself was interviewed on HIS Radio WRTP. She simply tickles me! Her optimism and joy for family and comfort thrill me. Although, I'm sure eating all those yummy foods would get me at some point, if you know what I mean. She was talking about how many shows she's been on recently, her new restaurant, and the joys of her family. She chuckled and said, "You know how you can't hit a moving target? Well I just don't stop movin'! |

 Your first thought of OCD is probably "neat freak" or something like that. What if it was the opposite end of the spectrum?
Buying my first home has got me thinking about clearing my space. Not just physical space, but "head space." By nature, I'm a neat-freak-aholic; but even us minimalists accumulate clutter through a life-time of events, special memories and just "stuff" we never meant to throw away. With this in mind, one night I crashed on the couch after a long day of manual labor (sprucing up my fixer-upper-home). |
