March 10

I couldn't think of a title so I guess that will have to do for now. Sunday was a good day. Craig and I went to church. I felt convicted by the church sermon because it was about eternity and how we are on earth for a little while. We should think about heaven and look to have as our home. The sermon spoke to me because in all honesty I don't think about heaven that much. When Paster Pieter was speaking I didn't feel good. I kept thinking that some of the material things, people and situations that I am wrapped up in by choice aren't going to help me get closer to Jesus or heaven for that matter. I am starting to make changes in my life, but some of them are from the outside in. I need to start from the inside. I need to let God work in me and through me for me to get closer to him and heaven. I 've got to be steadfast and patient.

While I had this on my mind I spent some time with Matt, Emily and Craig. I began to see that I need more quality relationships in my life instead of quantity. Us four make up the A-Team! We go to church, exercise, and just hang out together. I can't tell you how nice it is to spend time with another married couple who are in similar position as you. I feel like if I have questions or concerns I can just talk to Emily about it. Sometimes I ask them for their advice. I love them and I am very happy that God put them in our life. Yesterday we walked/jogged the high school track. I haven't jogged in four years and let me tell you that I am so sore, but plan on working out tonight! We work out for about 45 minutes everyday doing 3/4 cardio and the rest of the time spent on weights. I am not trying to be Miss Universe or anything, but I would like to tone up while losing weight. I lift about 10-20lbs with my arms and legs for short periods of time.

Craig started his campus mail job today! He told ne that the route was really confusing, but that he should catch on after a week or so. He will have such a long day today. We both drove to campus this morning at 8am so that I could get to work and he could get to his campus job. He has classes until 3:45 and will wait for me until I get off at 5. Craig is working 6-10 at Pizza Hut tonight so that is a total of 14 hours of pretty much going non stop. Luckily, he only does this two days during the week and on Saturdays. I pray that he has a good day! I know that he will get home and just crash.
