Wk 5, Day 7 - Sun, 5-Jan-2014 | Journey To My New Me

5 GRATITUDES (Thank you, Heavenly Papa!):

That my brother and his wife gave us their leather couch set when they purchased a new set.
That the furniture fit in the back of the Explorer, though, it took 3 trips.
For my peace in our household.
For a sermon at church that revealed some of the strongholds in my life. The Holy Spirit spoke powerfully to me again.a????
Thankful that my mom has an iPhone now. She can do Facetime with all her kids and grandchildren because we all have either the iPhone or iPad.

THOUGHTS:

We finally got my brother's old leather couch set, which is in great condition and a nice set (couch, loveseat recliner, and seat/ottoman) over to my mom's garage for storage.
My cough has been on/off not great. I couldn't take the cough med before church because I was driving and I don't want codeine in my system when I'm driving, just in case. It's a narcotic and I could be driving "under the influence" even if the amount is super small. It's advised I take only when I know I'm not driving, like right before bed.
Decided that I have far too much music, videos and pics to transfer all to my new laptop, which is 1 T, but my stuff is more than that. So, I will keep that stuff on external HDs and keep my laptops with mainly programs. I think that will work better.
Parenting is a challenging thing. We are both very challenged with things with them as one is a teenager and one is a tween. Bless my husband for taking on two children in this age group with baggage.
I am enjoying the salsa and merengue my husband is playing. When I am working, I cannot listen to anything at all as it impedes my work, so it was nice to not work most of Sunday, just a couple hours and to have time to relax.
My mom is stepping up to the ages. She has an iPad and an iPhone. She is learning a lot in a short amount of time. My oldest brother taught her how to text today. Yay. I told her the kids actually know how to use the iPhone more than me, so it's not a big deal. It's not her. I am proud of my mom.
