I’m over here reading this breastfeeding book, and working over this nutrition plan. Sigh…… Pregnancy lol. There’s just so much preparation and work that goes into every aspect of it. I’m glad though that I have my fiance by my side and that we are both excited happy and ready for our babies. Yay US. On a side note: I wonder realistically how this is gonna go. So far its been good but I can’t deny that I’m scared, nervous and joyful. Looking forward to all that it brings.

I’m going to be honest, I can be mean sometimes but for the most part I am a kind and generous person. However when I go out of my way to be kind to someone that is two faced and the only thing they can think to do is talk shit where they THINK I can’t hear or read it. IT really grinds my gears. None the less… I’m still gonna do me and be my kind self regardless of how other people may choose to act. It’ll really only hurt that dumb ass in the end.

Today was also a BIG day for me  Me & my Fiancé. We started the actual legal process for getting married i.e filling out our marriage license application. It so exciting to think that I’ll be a Mrs. So and So. <3

 Today I did something that, led me back to someone I’ve been out of touch with. The Volunteer inside me. When I first learned  about volunteering it was always more recreational  rather than actual service. I used to to go to haunted houses around Halloween and I would volunteer also for day cares ( love the kidies ;) ). When I was in college they required a certain amount of hours of volunteering toward the credit for the course, but since that time I haven’t.  

Which brings us to Today. While working on my life goals, it came to me that one of my goals was being unmet. That goal is to Live a life of service. As long as I can remember it has been important to me that no matter what I actually did for a career that I helped mankind. Now that I’m at a point where I have some free time I thought that I could give back.

I signed up with the Open door mission which is a Gospel rescue mission dedicated to breaking the cycle of poverty. I’m on a crew of people who make sack lunches and then drive around through the city and hand them out. 

For a first day my eyes were definitely opened to the real issues of poverty that plaque our city. I was able to learn that its the kindness of people and businesses that make the most of the programs that help the homeless possible.  And more than anything I was glad to be apart of it. I look forward to my next shift at the mission out reach center, and I look forward to my life of service.
