Twelve Things

I Love:

• key lime pie from Longhorn
• old, rich hymns with much more theology and substance than three repeated lines about how I feel *end rant*
• churches which sing said hymns exuberantly
• Nichole Nordeman
• the sense of accomplishment and "hey, I can actually do this!" surprise that I feel when I've cooked a decent meal
• getting letters from my Compassion child

I Hate:

• the materialism and greed that creep up in me whenever I go shopping
• not having a home church
• reaching the end of the day and realizing I haven't accomplished much but instead have wasted a lot of time
• not knowing a soul besides my husband within a three-hour radius of my home
• Denise Austin's workout videos
• having unpacked boxes everywhere
