Don't they just look so in love?

Saturday night was the Annual

Endymion Coronation Ball
We Second Lines around the Convention Center - twice.
It was one of the most "New Orleans" moments of my life
and I loved every minute of it.
So did my camera.
 {and that means there is documentation
that I will need to share with you on a later date!}

Such a good night!!

Last week I took a week as a Social Recluse. It was amazing to have some time to myself. I really enjoy alone time these days, which is exactly the opposite of my life in college and in highschool. I guess it's part of being a 'grown up' that I like about myself. It's so important to spend some time alone.

Monday & Tuesday of last week I still felt overwhelmed and depressed and stress. Wednesday, while walking to my office, I said a prayer asking God to give me grace and patience and positive energy. I offered up my sufferings for the day to Him. That night when I laid in bed I thought back on my day and how much better I felt, then I realized I had God to that for it. I so often forget to say my prayers and give my day to My Lord. It's really awesome how often He has come to my rescue!

Today, I still feel like I have a list three miles long that I want to accomplish every day {which is really depressing}. I just have to remember to take it little by little. I have to set achievement goals!

{I've been writing in my paper journal a lot more} It's nice to read back on the goals I've set in the past and realize that I've accomplished them.
