Nothing can stop me now!
As I was getting ready to type this blog out I looked up and noticed a word, "normal" it was talking about the font I wanted to use. I instantly thought, what is normal? I would say I do not live a "normal" life for most standards. But who is to judge what is and is not normal? I titled this post, nothing can stop me now, because that is how I feel. I'm in a place in my life where my feet and down and I'm running full speed, where? NO CLUE! But I'm going. My normal is fast and questionable. A normal day for me is quick paced and no time to rest. But if I slow down I don't feel normal. So what is your normal? Where do you begin and end? Everyone lives each day to a new normal, and what works for them. So what is stopping you? Place it in your mind that nothing is going to stop you and you are going to go!

Somewhere between life and me, I'm going to find time to write again. So stay tuned for a "time" in the life of me, Jennifer. Because everyone knows this won't be every day!

Quickly...
So I thought I would quickly write a blog to express my feelings: so for about the past 4 days God has been rocking my world, one thing after another... Not bad o suppose... An it feels like daily I am going to my friends requesting prayer for these situations, again, not bad.. Well here is my expression time: I am SO THANKFUL to serve a God that had allowed me to be surrounded around people that are willing yo pray for my situations, even if they are every day... I serve a God that no matter how big or small the situation He hears me cry out to Him. I am again SO THANKFUL to have these people by my side!

Super heroes aren't supposed to get sick...
Super heroes arent supposed to get sick.. And I can tell myself that I'm not super hero; but I won't believe it until my life slows down. My life did actually slow down today... Well more for the fact that I was home sleeping this whatever I have off... But sooner then I would like I'll be out "fighting crime again" oh no wait, that's just working! Silly me!! No super hero here, just a busy person! :)
Well my last post was a little sad :( <--- sad face... But this one does have some light shed! :) <---epic happy face! I had decided that after my last post things HAD to change, makes sense! And I went to church expecting things to change, I had no doubt in my mind that I would b praying and that things were going to get better.. And guess what, they did! I guess it's all about surrenderance and just a willingness to let it happen. I can desire all I want, and be tired of it all I want. But if I haven't surrendered or if I'm not willing to allow God to move for me... Why would it happen? So for now, that is taken care of.
Life should be easy this week. Little work, had to pass up a trip to florida... Sad sad SAD DAY!! :( if I could only get one shift covered... Oh well... And a little soccer, happy the season is nearly over and I can have a little more free time!!! :) I miss my kids but I'm always happy to have a break!
Nothing really exciting to report or talk about... Hum, maybe a daily blog isn't a good idea... Now that's something to think about... So I'll b off for now. Don't forget to come back and keep looking for post of the daily life if me, jennifer!

Day 53!!! Blog 3....
Well for what started out to intend to be a daily blog, has turned into LIFE! How does that thing get in my way all the time? I would tell you all that has gone on, but let's face it, you don't have the time to read, and I don't have the time to post it-obviously! Recap shall we: In the past month and a half I have; switched my second job to hallmark, worked more then I ever have before in my whole life, was under water for nearly 2 weeks stright, missed more church then I ever have in my life, and been challenged in too many ways to mention... Life has been "challenging" to say the least! But nothing that "super jenn" cant get through. I'm jennifer I'm supposed to conquer all, right? Yea, I'll keep thinking that too.
I won't complain about life, I know things could be MUCH worse. I'm truly blessed. Things may not be how I want or what I expected but it's what's on my plate and I need to just dig in, pray hard, and be prepared for what God has in store. MUCH easier said then done! Right?!??
Ive been trying to live by a phrase I've Learned a few years ago, "I'm working on me" seems like a daily task these days. I sometimes forget in the bustle of everything to work on me. I cannot forget who I am living my life for. Like I said before, I've never missed this much church before... When did I ever become so busy that God was fourced-by me-to ride along and help only when I turned to Him. Isn't He supposed to be the driver? I'm jus supposed to go along and be ready tk listen an obey...
I guess I'm just tired, I'm ready for life to just keep going and for me to allow God to take control again... I just want to SLOW DOWN! it's obvious that I'm in need of it!
So for hopefully the first and last of a serious blog I'll be out. Maybe I'll stop life once in a while and keep this blog some company, it must get bored when I'm not around!
So keep looking for more post in another day in the life of me, jennifer!

has about gone mad!
IM BACK!! Yea, busy busy busy! Half the time i dont know how i even do it! It seems like before i know it is is about midnight and i still have a pile of things to do. Lets recap the last few days shall we...
Journey with me will you back to Tuesday, a good day.... A day off, which comes VERY rare for me!! But Tuesdays are the best days, because it is soccer day! Wake up late, but of course i sleep in as long as i can, and laze around all day. Realize that mother nature hates me, so it is incredibly cold out again, guess who had to cancel soccer... yea, me! I found myself though that night sleeping until about 9pm, waking up and having too much energy to go to bed until around 3... Oh how i "love" 3am... yea, thats when my world is alive. Seems like i lay in bed many nights at 3am playing with my iphone, or reading, whatever. But still 3am is MY hour! Did i mention that my alarm goes off at 5am on wednesday mornings? SURPRISE!! 5am Wednesday morning, i roll out of bed and slowly get dressed. Seemed to be slower then usual. I pack my daily bag and i am off to the mystical land of Kroger... YEPPIE!! I end my shift and head off to the engaging world of Hallmark where i do yet another shift. Did i mention that by the time both shifts had ended i was on my feet for over 9 hours? FUN!! I end my shift and rush out to soccer, where we have a longer practice to make up for all the lost time. I decide around 7-after practice- to go visit my sister, brother in law, nephew, and niece... I get there to find my sister injured and on crutches. And guess who wanted to spend the night with aunt Jenn.. Oh yes, and I'm SUCH a soccer for his beautiful face!! I ask my sister what time he goes to bed, she responds with, "whenever u lay him down." Ok, now what time does he wake up? Her answer, "8:30, or 9" Doesnt sound too bad. So i take him. We get to my house where he is overjoyed with my cats, running around the house playing having the time of his life. Midnight rolls around and i finally wrestle him to his bed. Remember how i was up at 5am?? Finally i fall asleep around 1, and i hear shuffling around 4... Mr. Landon wasnt sleeping his best, and at 5am-ON MY DAY OFF- he is up crying... FOR REAL KID?!?!?! I put in his favorite movie and about an hour later he falls back to sleep, short lived thought. He was up again at 8:30.. Oh children. Sleepy aunt Jenn gets up, makes pancakes, and we are off on our day. We shopped, ate lunch, and hung out. After getting him back to his parents i had about an hour window to rest. But short lived of course. Off back to soccer, 5-7 and had to run errands after. No fear though, i get those 5th and 6th winds.... Finally home a little after 9 and in bed by midnight. Up today at 5am, to work from 6am-8pm... on my feet the whole time.... Gee am i tired! I am blessed to have the strength, but some days, i know it is directly from God, but this does not seem humanly possible sometimes.
Hopefully life will calm down from here. Busy weekend ahead, and lots to do. Im a go-getter- what can i say? Staying busy is just my thing. I wouldnt know what to do with myself if i didnt have things to do. Now off to shower and bed, so i can get back up at 5am, and start all over! So until next time, keep this in mind... There are over 40 million Americans that have chronic halitosis, which is bad breath that never goes away....
Keep looking for more post of another day in the life of me! Jennifer!

day one, blog one
Its 5:00AM and that stupid thing is going off again, oh wait, its my alarm clock... snooze, snooze, snooze, and one last snooze... Now its 5:45AM, i have 15 minutes to get up, get dressed, and make about a 7 minute drive to work, and of course i make it right in time!! (Now thats skill).
Who am I? I am a typical girl, doing typical girl things, sure!! Im a work-a-holic who spends most of her time on her IPhone, work, church, or bed. Thats about it. For real!! When I'm not doing one of those things, i am coaching soccer, because while a nice dressy skirt, blouse, shoes, and my hair pretty is nice, i love to kick back in a skirt, tshirt, and cleats and rock the soccer field! Im not intimidated by men and love to hang out with my friends-when i find time! I love the idea of a good book, music, and chilling on the couch reading, but never find time to do any of that! Im constantly on the go, which works out for me, because you add in my ADHD and my normal personality and you have a good day when Im around!! :)
Its now 11:00Am and its its time to leave work, well to go home and change for work again... Day one, part two!! Time for another 5 hour shift... "yeppie". This shift goes by quickly though!! And 5:00PM rolls around before i even knew it!! I rush home and quickly put on my comfee clothes and make me some dinner. Tonight is some soup stuff with shrimp in it, it is actually a lot worse then i thought it would be... sad day... But no worries, its healthy!! Right??
Well Im off for now... Time to work out, and go to bed. But keep reading because every day is a little different when it is a day in the life of me, Jennifer! So for now, buckle up, because its the law!
