I Ain't No Cheap Cookie!


Today a friend of mine told me I was a cheap cookie. First of all, I can say with absolute surety, that I have never ever been called a cheap cookie so she gets a few points for originality.

The context of the conversation that caused such an expletive from her centers around my complaints on reading the bible. Honestly, my one year bible is a struggle and I’m just on day 6. I have read all the way to Isaiah before then I just couldn’t read anymore. Now I’m starting from the beginning and I am dreading trekking through Numbers and Deuteronomy and Chronicles and Psalms.

She said that the devil is buying and selling me because I am a cheap cookie. I don’t even have the mind frame to fight for my life in Christ.

Now really, she went to far on that one. Ain’t nobody buying and selling nobody up in here although I see what she’s saying. So in order to make things right, I will try to no longer complain about my bible study but will rejoice in it, or at least hush my mouth and get through it.

As a result, this is my offering to you. Please, please don’t be a cheap cookie. No matter what.

Texas Wins!!


YAY! We won, we won, we shot the bebe gun

I was so proud of Mr. Vince Young doing his thing all over California Wednesday night. Now that is what I call a winner. Trust me, you rarely see that kind of poise and leadership in a man so young. Yeah, this is just football, but to a lot of them this is strictly business. These games determine how they are going to live their lives. To them, and me, this is very important. And the best part is, Mr Young raised his stock in that game. People were saying he couldn't get the job done at the next level and the USC players were more NFL-ready. Well let me just say this... Vince Young out-did two Heisman trophy winners in one game, all by himself

What else does he need to do to prove his worth? Absolutely nothing!!!!!!!!

Resolutions

Here we go again. I have the resolution blues and it’s only the third. Dammit, what to do, what to do?!!!!

I wanted to start running, writing, reading, laughing, talking and breathing (inside joke) more. A couple of those I haven’t even started (running of course and talking).

I am going to do the running one of these days. I just wish I had someone I was scared of and would be hesitant to hit or cuss out to drag me out of my bed every morning. I’m sure that would help me get my plan rolling.

Anybody?

Help!!

I love my new journal. I went for the leather bond, chocolate colored one. It looks so nice that I had to make myself write in it or I would have been saving it for years. Now that it’s broken in I know I’ll at least write for a couple of months but I’m really going for the whole year.

Last but not least, why is attending somebody’s church service on my agenda. Yep, it’s been that long, as sad as this truth is, and I’m feeling it. Can’t hardly think right cause I ain’t been getting my Jesus fix. Barely making it, I say. I’m gonna do better this year though… I got plans.
