Baby It's Cold Outside

Yesterday afternoon, I had the pleasure of singing "Baby It's Cold Outside" with my very talented co-worker Nick at my office Christmas Party. We'd only practiced twice right before the party start and I fudge a little in the first verse. But an hour and a glass of campagne later, I nailed it. The rest of the afternoon, I was complimented to the hills for how much joy it brought everyone.

I'm not great at taking compliments but I did my best to be gracious and smiled a LOT. I was pleasantly surprised how awesome this party was. From the decorations, to the spread to seeing people I work with all in one room enjoying some time off to celebrate.

When I woke up yesterday morning, I had a lot weighing on me. Mostly worrying that I haven't save enough and that I'm going to have to rent my place out and move back home. I prayed that God would make me smarter and wiser about this issue because I have to believe that he wanted me to own my own home so why would he take it away just 6 months into it. I've made some adjustments like majorly increasing my church tithe. After hearing a Journey sermon about the levels of giving, I knew I was disobyeing God by only give when I felt I had enough and then only giving 5%.

Don't get me wrong, I got exactly what I wanted in terms of personal space. I have my beautiful Home Depot Christmas tree up. I even had some energy to make an ornament last night with some leftover craft stuff at my parent's house. I have four more to make when I feel like it. And I like having my own kitchen and am still learning what I can make for dinner and not be too tired. I will keep using my crockpot that's for sure.
