Winding Down

Things are slowing down some, kinda. Church Fall Fest, check. Scrapbook for friend, check. 2 Sundays without BJ, check. Baby Shower, check. Today is November 1st so there are only 2 more weeks until the end of my crazy season at work. Things are starting to wind down some and I'm really liking it. I went to a baby shower yesterday and someone asked me what my next project is. I honestly don't know. Trust me that I do have a few more things on my list that needs to be done, but for now I'm not actively working on any of them. I'm looking forward to the end of month when I start working 4 day weeks. Maybe I'll get some projects done then. I'm really glad I can see a light at the end of the tunnel of my current craziness, because working 50-55 hour weeks gets old. You'll be very proud to know I updated the background for my blog all by myself. That is usually BJ's department, but this time I figured it out all by myself. Let me leave you with an excerpt from a song that I've been listening to this week:

The beauty of the cross is that there's one who has redeemed my soul. The beauty of the cross is that I'm finally free and letting go. The beauty of the cross is that your grace has found me just as I am.

The middle line bring the biggest smile to my face. God is teaching me to let go of the things I hold so close and let him be God. In letting go, I can finally be free.
