I’ve heard how hard it is to quit things you’re addicted to. We all know how hard it is. We hear about Alcoholics Anonymous, where you have a sponsor to keep you on the road to recovery, and even then, do you ever truly recover? You’ve seen the adverts for Nicorette gum and patches to…
Being Thankful
So I thought it’d be a really cool idea to post a blog about being thankful on Thanksgiving day. I know, what a concept! How has no one ever thought of it before? However, I had this idea on Thursday. Before work. Then I had youth club that I help at. Then I had more…
I’m Amy, and I’m a shopaholic
The past couple of days, I’ve been waking up with a face full of cold, feeling like I have man-flu (the fatal kind). My ears have that horrible cold feeling where I feel like I could topple over at any moment, I sound like a man (and a very husky voiced one at that) and…
So you’ve had a bad day…
It happens. I woke up this morning and knew today was going to be bad. You know how when you go outside, you just know it’s going to rain. You can sense it. In the air, or maybe it’s like a sixth sense. You just know something bad is going to happen. You don’t know…
Christmas Rant
It’s very well established that Ellen and I both have some sort of mutated Christmas gene that means we get superbly over excited about the festive season. I’ve come across far too many Scrooges to know that Christmas is pretty much resented by most. But for me, it is truly a magical time of year….
Feminism – Why I Don’t Like It
As controversial as it is to say, I really don’t buy into the whole concept of feminism. I understand people have died to achieve equal rights over the course of history, but I’m talking about everything since then. Modern feminism. I am very grateful, and extremely thankful that people have in the past and still…
The fear
We all get it. When you really, really, really want to say something, then you bottle it and keep it inside. During our Sunday evening services at my church, we sometimes hold times of open worship. I love God with all my heart, I’m so beyond grateful to him for everything and everyone in my life, I…
Itchy Feet
Every now and then I get itchy feet. After my amazing trip to Budapest and Bucharest this year, I know I can do it alone too. Just before the summer, I started applying to teach English as a foreign language in Vienna. I wanted to go to Vienna so badly, but I couldn’t afford to…
Words to live by
From an earlier post, you might notice that I kind of love Martyn Joseph. He’s awesome. I’m still listening to him a lot, but there’s a song I listen to that is really catchy and the lyrics are really something to live by.
Happy Anniversary!
Today WordPress has informed me that it is our 2 year anniversary. I signed up to WordPress 2 years ago today. How exciting. In two years, I have hosted a total of 8 blog sites (woah!) and had over 6,000 views on my collection of sites and indulged myself in many ways on these pages….
