Thoughts on Thursday 8

So, I try to have my Thoughts on Thursday post written before Thursday and just put my video in when I get it filmed! Well, this week has crawled by so slowly and I’m doing good to even remember that today is Thursday! ! I’m so glad that there’s only one day left and then I can say good-bye to this week! There really hasn’t been anything bad about the week, but it has taken forever to end! Have you ever felt that way about a week?

Here’s this week’s Thoughts on Thursday!

Really YouTube? You decided to make the thumbnail me holding a water bottle in front of my face? I guess it’s your birthday and you can do what you want right!? Haha!

Life Happens

Have you noticed that I haven’t posted in a little over a week? Life happens and it has been a little busy!

life updatesHere’s what’s been going on.

  • I had a battle with sinus drainage

  • Saturday we went to the auction and got a bunch collectibles for the Ebay store

  • Mother’s Day was Sunday so we grilled steaks for dinner and had coconut cake.

  • We took an unexpected trip to the beach at the beginning of last week. Mr. RCGG had something for his job come up.

  • While we were gone we went down to St. Augustine Florida and checked out the sites there. We went to Castillo de San Marcos. I’m writing a post on that next week. (I’m still writing my Appomattox post over a month later.)

  • I have been working on some blog round up ideas! I’ll be announcing that at the end of the week.

So now, you know what’s been going on over the past couple weeks! Sometimes life happens and you have to take a minute or two to catch up! I hope you have had a great past couple weeks. I’m looking forward to getting back in to the blog!

Talk to you all soon!

Catching up on Life

The past couple weeks have been such a whirlwind!  This is the first weekend we have been home since Easter. This week’s thoughts on Thursday is an update on what’s been going on these couple weeks!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPeBKtlfsZo

Don’t you love the thumbnails that You Tube picks for you! Haha!

I need to get caught up on posts. I have my Appomattox recap that I need to get written, plus a guest post that I need to start. Blogging is just a never ending job!

Thoughts on Thursday 5

As I’m looking over my blog tribe I noticed that there is so much self promotion and not enough helping. When SITS did the tribe challenge sometime last year I tried to get my group involved, but none of them made any effort to reach out to other tribe members. So fast forward to late October or maybe early November. I decided to make my own blog tribe on Facebook. It’s a good group of bloggers, but for the most part there’s just posting blog links and conferences they are going to or organize. I wanted a group where I’d be able to ask questions, get advice on life issues, and other non blogging things. Anyways, on to my video:

Thoughts On Thursday 3

Welcome to Thoughts on Thursday 3 on Monday! We vacuumed Thursday so that took up a lot of my time. Then, I went to film using my camera and my batteries were dead so I had to charge those. Friday through Sunday I take a break to collect thoughts and recharge for the week ahead! Anyways, here’s my Thoughts on Thursday!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zjL-eHbR0M&feature=youtu.be

I’ll have my notes on Thursday so I won’t seem as if I’m struggling for something to say!

30 Day Journey to a Fulfilled Life- A Review

I was given the opportunity to read and review  a free advanced copy of an e-book called My 30 Days’ Journey to a Fulfilled Life by Ifeoma Samuel. If you are interested in reading you can find the book on Amazon starting Sunday!

 

In the book Ifeoma discusses what it takes to live a fulfilled life with God by your side. In each chapter she discusses ways to invite God into your every day life. Not just on Sunday!

Ifeoma Samuel ebook cover (1)At the end of some of the chapters are practical questions. These questions help to put the lessons into your every day life. Having God in you every day life is very important. I’m always looking for ways to make time for God and I think this book is a very good way to help you ask Him into your home. It is definitely a very easy read for someone that doesn’t have a lit of time. The chapters are very short and I know that’s helpful for some people. You can read the whole book at one time or read a chapter a day.

I have learned a lot from this book and I hope you check it out so you can learn more about walking in life with God!

Thanks for giving me the chance to review your book Ifeoma! I really enjoyed it! God Bless you and your family!

I have not received any compensation for this and all opinions are mine.
