Today was a different day. It was really hard, but filled with some nice times too. I was having a difficult afternoon. I was kinda cranky, real tired, emotional, and just had way to much floating around my mind. I texted Mel and her advice was to listen to some music and take a nap. How lovely that sounded. I tried to do just that, but my mind wouldn't let my body sleep. My restless thoughts got the best of me and led me to tears which led me to call someone I haven't spoken to in a while. That someone is Annie! Lovely Annie. We talked for a little while and I shared what was going on in my head and heart and just the overwhelming things I was feeling. And like the wonderful friend I know her to be, she listened to me ramble for a while and then gave me her input. Turns out she was in a similar situation last year. It's funny how things like that happen and God leads you to talk to the right people. She encouraged me a lot, giving me advice to lean into God's presence and allow his grace to cover me. It was so nice talking to her. Made me realize how much I miss my Ignite lovelies.
Changing the subject completely...To celebrate my parent's anniversary, they made beef stroganof for dinner! So yummy and haven't had it in forever! I also worked on some artsy stuff today. All because I had Melissa's voice in the back of my head telling me to do something creative. Well what I started to make today is going to be for her :) And I ended the day by making some super delicious cookies!!

| Not as pretty as the picture from recipe, but they tasted amazing and were well deserving of a big glass of milk! |
Looking back on the entirety of the day, I guess I could say that it was a good one. I talked to an old friend, I made a delicious dessert, ran a bit this morning, watched some Olympics, and played cards with momma. God has blessed me with another nice day :)
