Day 4 means I am a little more than half way through my seven days! Yay!
Today really was a very good day.
Even though there was a photo shoot going on at work that involved lots and lots of yummy food. (Well, I think it was yummy. I didn't taste any of it. haha).
Even though there were whoopie pies and a bowl of extra filling in the lunch room.
I chugged down my rice and beans for lunch and felt great all afternoon. I'm hungry this evening, but it's bearable. My body must be getting used to this. Hopefully? =)
Maybe part of the reason this is getting better is that now the end is in sight.
I'm worried about one thing: What if I go crazy and eat way too much after I finish PWAM?
I'm sad about one thing: What about all the people who are actually living like this and that's just life for them?
Tonight is the night for this:
And just for interest's sake, how fun are these two?
My "tent" is actually just a tarp tacked to the side of the house on one side and a bench on the other side. I'll be sleeping on the deck. Yes, you can call me wimpy.
Today's luxuries:
9.) The blessing of Mom and Dad. They are a blessing and I'm so glad God gave them to me. Mom's going to sleep outside with me. =) Dad put up the tarp for me. Our conversation while he worked...Me: "What can I do?" Dad: "Just watch Papa." So I did. It really wasn't much work and I did help a little then. =) But, really, I'm glad God blessed me with these particular parents. I love you, Mom and Dad!
10.) The blessing of knowing God. Even if every material thing I have would be taken away, and I survived on rice and beans every day for the rest of my life, I would still be rich in Christ. I'm a daughter of the King and NO ONE can take that away from me. It's the greatest blessing of all, covenanted to last forever.
