Happy St. Patricks day!

Happy St. Patrick's Day! I had a great St. Pat's day. Elisse had a really nice party with yummy shepherd's pie, with real mutton. We played party games like writing Irish blessing for one another. That was fun. And we read about St. Patrick. I am still unsure why drinking beer has anything to do with St. Patrick, but I'm not complaining just wondering. I made Irish Creme which is easy to make, and oh so delicious.
Life's been pretty good, oh except my back has been acting up. I got a sinus infection and tried to cure it on my own and well it ended up draining to my back. Yeah it's possible. Anyway my back went out and I am still a little sore. But work is good, been busy and that is good too.
Hope all of you had a great St. Patrick's day!

Dreaming on my own

I am a day dreamer. Always have been. I mean I have worked really hard to try to " live in the moment" as they say, but I don't think I can do that all of the time. I mean when I am with people I enjoy the moment. But when I am at work or driving or laying in my bed half awake I am in another world. I am always thinking. I had a friend once tell me that is not normal to always be thinking. I can't imagine not always thinking.
God has been working out a lot of stuff in me lately and today I felt like he was talking to me about day dreaming. I usually day dream these great plans for my life. They change all the time. Most of the time they come from an unsatisfied place in my life and I am searching for something esle. I don't think that place is wrong. But the thing is, I have taken control over my dreaming. I have these ideas of what my life should look like and I never include or seek the dreams of what God wants for my life. There is a lot of fear in that. Seeking God for what he has for your life. Sometimes I think he doesn't have a plan for my life, this is it. And that scares me too. It all comes down to trust.
What does one do about this? Well I guess I begin to surrender. I would be totally lying if I said that I was going to give it all up to God, cause I know this isn't all up to me and I have to stop taking control of it and ask God to show me himself and his dreams for me.
