Day 1 O' Joy

totally stealing this from sweet Mandy Boddy, but thought it was a cute idea. Atleast for the last week-ish I'll be able to use a computer daily. :) each day i'll list 6 pieces of joy:)or more. I probably already have that many for today, and it's only 1:28 PM. Do I have to wait until night-time to list them? maybe i'll cheat, just this once:) 2 posts in one day perhaps?.. wow. Getting just a tad obsessed with all this social-networking, aie?

so here we go for the first half of today:)

pieces of j-o-y

1) my alarm going off at 7:50 am, and getting to turn it off without even worrying about an official wake-up time (slept in till 9:15, mm!)

2) drinking coffee and reading on the back porch. oh, and eating raisins

3) writing 3 pages in my journal, and finding only a few pages to be left

4) trying on a bunch of 80's one piece bathing suits of my mom's for Summer Beach Project, ahaha.. definitely some humor there. i like laughter with mom:)

5) gettings texts from my little sister asking how dad has been doing after the surgery. her heart's a big one.

6) listening to By Your Side by tenth avenue north. it's a pretty popular song, er atleast i think so, but the lyrics are great:) i'll post 'em.

Why are you striving these days
Why are you trying to earn grace
Why are you crying
Let me lift up your face
Just don't turn away

Why are you looking for love
Why are you still searching as if I'm not enough
To where will you go child
Tell me where will you run
To where will you run

And I'll be by your side
Wherever you fall
In the dead of night
Whenever you call
And please don't fight
These hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you

Look at these hands and my side
They swallowed the grave on that night
When I drank the world's sin
So I could carry you in
And give you life
I want to give you life

(Chorus 2x)

Cause I, I love you
I want you to know
That I, I love you
I'll never let you go

mm:)
