Are You Hurrying Your Life Away???

I am the oldest of three children, the ‘Big’ sister, and I was always in a hurry to grow up. I couldn’t wait to learn how to ride a bike or to babysit, (that didn’t last long). It was exciting to think about getting my driver’s license, of course had to get my learner’s permit first. Then could I hurry up and get in high school? I mean it was going to be the best… right?

.

Next was college, I did a five-year music curriculum in four so I could graduate with the rest of my class and get into the ‘grown up ‘ world. Why was I rushing it? It was always hurry and get to the next level, the next accomplishment… then I changed my choices. (See video)

Something to think about.

Blessed While Standing in Line

Like most of you I have been out and about, Christmas shopping, going to rehearsals, and attending great Christmas gatherings… and eating toooo much =)

.

While on one of those excursions, I went to Walgreens for a few things and had a great encounter. I was paying for my items, and the lady behind me had an armload of various Christmas decorations, some lights, a couple stockings, and few other things. I had seen her in the aisle earlier and we had exchanged Hello to each other. When I saw her come up behind me I said Hi again and mentioned that it looked like she had found what she needed.

.

At this point she smiles Big and said she was getting ready to go decorate a house. She then explained she had a closing that afternoon and she was giving the keys to a new home to her client and 2 children. I really tuned in at this point. She said she wanted to surprise them and wanted them to have a feeling of Christmas when they went to their house for the first time. WOW! Isn’t that soooo cool?! Now let’s go back.

.

She is a RE agent here in LV and had a closing on a house , which in most cases means the job is done. Many people think that once that happens an agent is done, and they collect their money, right? Well, I know many RE agents, and that really isn’t how they view it. They want relationship and lasting friendships.

.

This woman was one of those great agents. I thought what she was doing was so sweet that I asked for her card, gave her mine, and invited her to tune in here so I could recognize her for her great efforts and Christmas spirit. Great job Terry P. You made a difference to those around. Blessings for the season and a bountiful New Year!

.

How can we share a little Christmas spirit today? I’d love to know your ideas!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

‘Til next time –

BLESSINGS! Go out and make it a great day!

How ’bout coffee?

Last week I had the pleasure of meeting with a friend from church. We share in ministry together and see each other only on Sundays. In the last couple of years that we’ve been going to church together, we haven’t ever taken the time to really get to know each other. Do you know what I mean?

_

She works with the kids at church, has a very busy life with her husband, who travels a lot, has two great boys, and has a very influential and demanding job. She does so many great things, is caring, and really does a lot of behind the scenes work in our congregation. Our Sunday mornings are a friendly ‘hello’, and the quick , ‘how are you’ or it’s good to see you’, with usually no time for anything else. Are you with me?

_

So we decided to meet, have a coffee, and just visit. We did have a few church things to discuss but we also had time to begin to know each other a little better. It really was nice.

–

How about you? Is there someone you would like to get to know better? It seems to never happen until we make a decision to make it happen. She and I chose a time, and it was actually a couple weeks before we found a convenient time for both of us. The point is, we did it. It was a blessing.

Things usually don’t just happen, we have to reach out, and take a step to go beyond our ordinary days.

_

So do it. Make a new friend, re-connect with someone you haven’t talked to in a while, or have coffee or a coke with someone you want to know better. You’ll be glad you did.

‘Til next time –

Blessings-

Never say ‘Never’ – and Never say ‘I Can’t’

As I was sitting here thinking about what to share with you today, I decided to go through my email and let my mind ponder. I clicked on a message from my former Pastor in Kansas City and this beautiful and totally Inspirational video was sitting right there in my ‘Inbox’.

You’ve heard the saying, some say ‘I Can’ and some say ‘I Can’t’, and BOTH are right. If we allow ourselves the indulgence of saying ‘I Can’t’ then we immediately open the door to ‘not’ doing it… whatever ‘it’ is.

Usually ‘can’t’ really means,

I don’t want to
I don’t believe I can
I’m afraid to try
What will others think of me
I Don’t want to stop and take the time
This is uncomfortable

Would you agree that most of us make excuses? Saying ‘I Can’t’ is just one of them. What if you took those words out of your dictionary… would it change your life?

Here is a video of a young and beautiful young woman… who doesn’t say ‘I Can’t’ and if anyone had a reason to . . . well . . . she would.

Very heartfelt and touching.. Enjoy!

This girl never says ‘I Can’t’

‘Til next time –

Blessings-

Delinda

Question: Do you have something in particular where you say ‘I Can’t’, but know that you really ‘Can’, maybe you are just afraid?

In the Dark. . .

Sometimes don’t you just have to laugh at yourself? In my process of being so organized, guess what I forgot?

My renters have just moved out of the house. We’ve known for a month that they were leaving so I have had plenty of time to take care of things. I’ve got meetings set up with a handyman, painter, landscapers, etc. Things are right on schedule, right?

NOT! I walked in to the house yesterday and wondered why it was so dark… Duh, I forgot to transfer the utilities.

I mean really, that should be right on the top of the list. So in case you have a move coming up, don’t be left in the dark (tee hee).

Contact

Electricity
Gas
Water
Cable / Direct TV, etc.
Phone (if you still have land line)
Post Office for address change (You can do this online for $1.05)
County records (if you are a homeowner or own other property)
Voter Registration (sometimes this will pop up when you change your address with Post office or County records)
All your vendors, credit cards, etc (I think this is my least favorite, trying to make sure I have them all covered)

Depending on where you are moving from or where you are moving to, you may need to have help with cleaning, yard clean up, inside things like painting repairs, and any changes you need or want to have done to the house. That’s what I am doing today, meeting people to take care of business, and then in a few weeks the actual move. It will be a month full of interesting situations. I just might have a story or two to tell when it’s over.

YIKES! Now it’s time to get to work! High heels off ……

Have a wonderful and blessed weekend.

‘Til next time –
