Wordy Wednesday

I like this word because it's definition is not what I think it should be...the sound of it is just so scary-movie sounding. There needs to be a horror movie with this word as the title and, I guess, if you got someone really clever to write it then the title could possibly make sense. Also, Pastor Husband used this word on Sunday, correctly...it was great!

an·tith·e·sis/anˈtiTHəsis/

Noun:	A person or thing that is the direct opposite of someone or something else. A contrast or opposition between two things.
Synonyms:	contrast - opposition - contradistinction

I think of scary movie maybe because it reminds me of "Maleficent", WHICH is going to be a movie next year! Heck yes!

A Quiet Sunday Morning Moment

For the first time Pastor Husband's alarm went off this morning and I actually knew what day it was and why the alarm was going off. It's nice to wake up and not be completely confused.


Ecclesiastes 5
Stand in Awe of God

1 Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. Go near to listen rather than to offer the sacrifice of fools, who do not know that they do wrong. 

2 Do not be quick with your mouth, 
do not be hasty in your heart 
to utter anything before God. 
God is in heaven 
and you are on earth, 
so let your words be few.

3 As a dream comes when there are many cares, 
so the speech of a fool when there are many words. 4 When you make a vow to God, do not delay in fulfilling it. He has no pleasure in fools; fulfill your vow.5 It is better not to vow than to make a vow and not fulfill it.6 Do not let your mouth lead you into sin. And do not protest to the temple messenger, “My vow was a mistake.” Why should God be angry at what you say and destroy the work of your hands?

7 Much dreaming and many words are meaningless. Therefore stand in awe of God. 

Super Bowl Dinner #2?6.8?

I got the touchdown sign from Pastor Husband tonight as we ate dinner. Basically, we just put everything on the grill and tadaa! we got an awesome, tasty dinner. I made the picture EXTRA large because it was EXTRA good tonight. I may have toasted the garlic and onions too long for the steak butter, but it still tasted just fine all melty all over the meat. Yum! 

Corn, asparagus, green onions, and steak with some guacamole and garlic/green onion butter as toppings.

It was also really nice having a Saturday night family dinner. It's kind of hard to have a family dinner in our house. Schedules are hectic at times so it's nice when we can actually sit down together without having to wonder about the time or what's happening next. We just ate together, Baby Girl has her veggies, beans, plums and some guacamole, which made her very happy. She loves the stuff.

We managed to make dinner, eat, clean the kitchen, give Baby Girl her bath, feed and put her to bed, AND prep the crockpot for "supper" tomorrow after church. Hopefully, it comes out something like this: Italian Chicken. Thank you Crock-a-doodle-do Mom for some much needed inspiration. I'm hoping to be able to do this every Sunday. It'll make after church a lot easier and then everyone can be home on time, with a full belly, and ready for naps (Pastor Husband and Baby Girl HAVE to have their Sunday afternoon naps otherwise the whole rest of the day/night is shot).

One question...if I make supper does that mean I have to make dinner too? 

Off Task

So, for some reason, I decided to get sick this week. My sinuses were overtaking my face and the only thing that felt good was a heating pad...on my face...while I slept with my mouth guard - now that is a pretty picture! - and yes, Pastor Husband still finds me irresistible. Anyway, only a few things have made me want to continue living and that is Baby Girl, who has just been a great mood these last few days (probably to make up for my sicky-attitude), Pastor Husband who has been taking great care of me and Baby Girl, my girls, and this amazing tumblr site:


Suri's Burn Book


I just absolutely love it and had to share. It's the dry-est of dry humor and I can't get enough of it! It reminds me of a book I had growing up Funny Insults and Snappy Put Downs. Yes, this is actually a children's book and should have been a warning sign to my parents. Ha, it actually makes me laugh now that I had that book. I'm working on heaving some of the piles of sarcasm out of my life because, as I tell my girls all the time, "sarcasm does not belong in relationships". It really doesn't. I've seen marriages end because of their sarcasm. It hurts some people (those who aren't smart enough to understand....ah! Sarcasm strikes again!). Sarcasm is also just empty and we're going to be judged for every empty word we say, which means I am in so much trouble! 


I'm working on it. I'm working on it. 

Friday = Things I Put My Baby In

Wordy Wednesday

Today's "Wordy Wednesday" word comes from the dictionary of Pastor Husband. I found out recently that this is a trait of all pastors - they love to create their own words on a Sunday morning. Enjoy using this new word today!


Topness

top·ness/täp nes/

Adjective:	To have reached the most extreme, highest point. To be at the top of the hierarchy without fear of removal or loss of position.
Synonyms:	topness

Jesus had reached topness, yet humbled Himself and took on the appearance of man and was obedient to death.
