I been around...

I kinda forgot that I had a blog that needed my attention, noone else can breatsfeed my baby now ain't that right. Imma just touch on a few things that have happened since the last time i wrote...

I turned 21
Now, i hate, hear me out on this please, I HATE *insert fist hanging mid air* people who think just coz I am 21 i am a child! I sometimes avoid speaking of my age or telling people my age coz they start under estimating my intelligence and psyche. In fact I know of someone that I didnt tell my age for a very long time and they assumed i was 25 or 26 (I do look 25) and when i did tell, they started treating me a lil differently and speaking oddly. UNCOMFORTABLE! Now I dont mind the fact that I look a lil older than i really am and i sound and act a lil older than i really am i actually love it. But dont come act awkward and start going coochie cooo when i tell u my age. Hence, i avoid age questions.

Procrastination
I have so much i need to do in life just in general. And i leave it and hope it will go away (normally doesnt work). It sucks that I have this thing in me. For example, I hate confronting someone that has wronged me, and there are times you need to these kind of things you know. I think a lot of people tend to take advantage coz i hate confrontations.
And my room, I have been planning to change the order of things since forever, but seems like i'd rather sleep than preetify my room. The diet (that never worked)....*sigh, sigh, sigh* I need to focus, my licence... bladi blah blah blah! I need help, someone...anyone....

Best Buddie's Wedding
30th of October, its here people. And I am a brides maid, (one very big one). The venue is beautiful. So intimate and cozy oh its beautiful. My dress is lovely and her dress is just so exquisite. Its gonna be awesome. I am just praying she stops stressing! I have never met anyone that stresses as much as D does, flippin hell. She should get an award! "for the highest stress level, passing with bright colours and tripple distinctions ladies and gentlemen, D!" *applause*
Dude u need to relax now, like really! Its gonna be fine.

And a whole of other things have happened. Dont even know what to place where. But this is a fresh page so my stories start now.

Lotsa lurvin

Wait a minute...

First of all whats up with Miley Cyrus. Lil good girl now turned bad. She was performing during "family time" on TV and she supposedly pretended to kiss a girl? Huh?? Our children (lol) had to see this on national TV during family time where shows like Britain's got Talent, Barney and so forth play. And how skimpy are the outfits she is wearing now? Little leather shorts, the highest studded heels, the most revealing outfits in town. Whats wrong with her? Soon we gonna hear she in rehab. I promise! Just watch. Mashura chaiwo.

Ok, now that's out of the way.

FIFA WC

The excitement is brewing like rapidly. Only a few hours left for kick off. People are wearing their South African soccer jerseys. My colleague has one written "Rude Boy" at the back (take it, take it, take it...). I shall be singing that song in his face till he turns purple. And people are bloody blowing their vuvuzelas everywhere! If I had one also I wouldn't be complaining, but I don't, so until I get one please take it easy on the vuvuzelas. Poor visitors. Their ears wont be the same when they go back to their countries. I wonder what their view on the vuvuzelas and the outrageous outfits will be. But one things is for sure, South Africans are very happy, hard hand shaking people (just for a moment try and look past the crime, the strikes and the xenophobia. I am swimming back home people.) They love to love other people, sometimes. Like for example, people that don't even know you can call you sweetie, lovie, darling, my baby and all that. And I don't mean lustfully, I mean just coz its sweet. If you not used to it you will probably think everyone is flirting with you.

Licence to drive

Not that easy to get in South Africa, if you are not South African ofcoz. Things just seem so hard to just do things normally here with out the officials trying to fish you out. Either its procedure or they just want your money.

Not a girl..but not yet a woman

So one of my close friends is dating a sixteen year old and he is, wait for it....26. No, is there something wrong with me or is this really a no no. Please tell me if i am over reacting. This is just so wrong in many ways. This is how the conversation went. Please note I copied this straight from my inbox:

Him - Remember that 16 year old i told you about? Well....

Me - No u didn't!!

Him - I tried to stop. But she didn't make it easy.
She seemed a whole lot more confident this time.
I guess she went home after our previous encounter and thought long and hard to herself.

Me - Oh my word! You are such a paedophile
I have no words for you!

I will leave it here coz the rest is unbelievable. You do the math for yourself, you will figure out what he "tried to stop". But if I am being unreasonable then drop me one and tell me where exactly I am being naive . I still don't think its good for him to do this, for her sake. But he thinks she is the one coz she is young, beautiful and inexperienced. And she is obviously head over heels coz she is 16. I have so much to say on this but let me shut my trap.

In Other News...

The Apple iphone 4 is out! It is BEAUTIFFFFFFFFFUL!!!
The Nokia N8 is its competitor coz its got a 12mega pixel camera and all that. But I'm more for looks, so I will stick to the ever so beautiful iphone 4. Lovely piece of art that.

On that note, have a lovely FIFA month. I'm not a soccer fan, but I loooove the players. ;)

I been around doin...

....a whole lotta stressing. Normal for a girl of less than 23 who has a whole lotta responsibilities. Like teenagers to take care of and to feed and school all out of my pocket and still pay the freakin rent. Arggggggghhhhhhhhh!

I wont talk about it. I don't want to. Buuuuuut on to more not so depressing things.

My lil sister passed her first term. Putting in mind that she hadn't been to school for a year coz of reasons beyond myself. I'm very proud of her flip. She is so intelligent, ofcoz she can only take after one person....me *grin*


I still haven't taken exercising seriously. I have a long way to go. I decided its up to me now to actually decide if the expansion is necessary. Is it necessary? No it isn't! But i am a food junkie and i don't see it as fair for me to be deprived of my daily cravings. Chocolate brownies...Choc-chip muffins...sadza nenyama (pap and meat), that's like the staple food at home. Staple as in daily we would eat sadza and we would eat rice and the salads pamaweekends, hehehe. Back to losing weight, I need inspiration. I need to be kept away from food. I want to lose weight but I am waiting for it to be a need. That's not cool though, coz then when its a matter of urgency... I don't know how that will turn out. Just keep me in your prayers.


I am finding myself, fashion wise. I like odd things. Maybe not so odd to the fashion maniacs (every girl should be a fashion maniac). Like i just found out I love stockings that are laddering...*silence* Is this normal? I think it is. I also like a formal and casual mix. Like you would wear your high waist knee length pencil skirt and your lady like cute shirt, then to give it a little edge you wear a pair of high top canvas sneakers (e.g. Levi's, Converse, Jack Purcell or whatever) then add accessories like a nice scarf and a huge bracelet and huge loop earrings. Ahhhhhh, loveit, loveit, loveit!!


I could go on and on about the fashion I am experimenting with. Just on the last note (on clothes), I am in love with African fabric clothes and stuff just like MBLS. I love love love what designers are doing with their African fabrics, its hot and very beautiful. I will post a few pics at the end of the post. I just love the way its modernized. Its so in! And i am on the road to owning a piece or two :) :)

Camp this year was amazing. I am blessed to have been there. I saw the lives of youth and adults being touched. I saw amazing growth and definitely God is at work. God is awesome and I just wanna thank Him for all He is in my life, He is "all" in my life. Glorrrrrrrrrrrrrrry! LOL.

On that note, take care and the words of wisdom for today....
"We can throw stones, complain about them, stumble on them, climb over them or build with them" - Unknown Author


And the pics I promised. Thanks to MBLS for her posts that introduced me to Sika. You rock chic!

This is hilarious.

Its last year's Idols contestant. I dont know if she had planned it or she was serious.. You decide.

Oh and enjoy your easter weekend. Im going to camp :)

Untitled Ramblings...

So this weekend was a long weekend coz of yesterday's holiday (I don't even know what holiday it was, human rights or something). They shouldn't call it a "long weekend" coz of an extra day after Sunday. The weekend is never enough, but I managed to get up to a few things.

I tried to make over my bedroom but i never finished. Please tell me I'm not the only one that gets excited about doing something for the first few hours, days or months then the enthusiasm just wears off, hence i have so many thing undone in my life in general. I need to fix that.

But I did my hair and my face. No i don't have long hair, but I shampoo and condition and all that stuff. Its natural and I'm trying hard for it to grow healthily. I try use natural products and its works miracles for my kinky coils. I enjoy doing my hair. I loooove the refreshed feeling I get. I know its not interesting but let me share my routine for those who care to listen. So I use some cheap Palmolive Egg Shampoo and Conditioner, Apple Cider Vinegar, and Olive Oil.


On my face I put "dhaga", i don't know what its called in English. But its that soil like substance that pregnant women love to eat. It looks like clay but it isn't. If you know the name in English, holla. I only know the shona version. Anyway I made a mask with that stuff and yah, i had a mini pampering just for moi! Beautiful I tell you. So effective.

Enough girl talk!

Sometimes when I am going home, I have to use a taxi. My usual means of transport will not be available at that time. (A taxi is kombi by the way, they call them taxis here in SA). In total I use 4 of them. I HATE using taxis by the way. I hate it. Its squashed and there is always that random person that smells like they have never heard of a bathroom. The same person asks if I can please close the window, WHATTTT THE HELLLLL! Then there is that man that is too close for comfort. When he is reaching for his money in his pocket, he stands up and his bum is in my face or if this person is not standing in a moving taxi reaching for their pockets, they are nudging my freaking boob! Coz they are trying to get money from their purse or wallet. I DESPISE TAXIZ! I should just get a freaking licence and save for a car.

So after my 2nd taxi, I get to Jozi. I walk to my 3rd taxi. So while walking, the streets smell like hell. Men are peeing everywhere. People are just walking bumping in to you. And you have to hold your hand bag close to you or else you will walk thinking you still have it when its long gone. But what really bothers me is not only the street vendors that are frying their chicken and cooking pap in the most disgusting unhygienic of places but also the porn magazines and DVDs that are sold on the streets. There is lots of young kids that pass through the place I pass also and for me its unruly. Its not healthy for young minds and its disturbing. I have more to say on this matter, just no time to do so. Let me get back to work.

An email I got - Laws Newton forgot to state

Mishaps and haps < (if there is such a word)

Before I start.

Its dawned upon me, when I titled the post, that the word "mishaps" (meaning accidents, mistakes, etc) must be derived from "mishappenings". Then some intelligent geek decided to shorten this phrase to mishaps.. So I figured if there is such a word as "mishaps", then how come there is no "haps"? It only makes sense, well in my head that is.



Just had to share the senseless things that happen in the mind of me. Nerd? I love the term nerd!! I like being called a nerd. Infact if you really want me to love you, chant "nerd, nerd, nerd" over and over again. lol, I cant explain my obessesion with the word (maybe its my glasses). Now let me tell you, my email buddies (SA, Zim and Nairobi) are a bunch of nerds. All of them are Zimbos. They dont like to be called nerds but who cares right, i still do. They come up with the most weird yet intellectual discussions ever. It can even be about the most stupid thing! One of the dudes once said to me that actually most Zimbabweans are nerds. Seriously! I can honeslty stand up and say, if given the platform one day, that 80%, if not over that, of Zimbabweans are very intelligent! There I said it. And its true. So big ups to ZimNerds! Blog raSekuru vaTawanda is one example among many. If aSekuru happens to read this, sorry zvenyu.



Next in line is the fact that I have had three different consecutive colds for the past three weeks. All different flavors. ewwww? tell me about it. This week I have had a nagging cough, thats mild during the day and at its climax at night. Im taking Woods and rubbing Vicks. I love sneezing but I hate coughing!



So tonight I have organised to go see "The Book of Eli" with Mr. Man. It must be an intresting movie. He doesnt know that we are going, but we are. After all its his birthday month and our annivesary month so he gets to get spoilt a little (and Denzel is hot! even though he is a bit old now)








**********************************************





Any who to round it all up, I wanted to share an email I got. I laughed my head off! Enjoy. (Sorry for the people who aren't Shona). It doeant look organised coz I just copied and pasted it, but its easy to make sense of :)

So just a few minutes ago...

Argghhh

And also...

We almost broke up on Valentines. It was the worst. We were supposed to go out and on our way we had a silly fight and we didnt speak for the whole day...

Talk about a terrible weekend I tell you. Vimbz you were right, "bad habits are hard to break".


I sulked so much it was pathetic. And he evn mentioned how he hates Valentines now coz we always seem to fight around that time ALL the time. We got back to his house and this is how the conversation went:


Boy: Babe I am sorry for messing up your day


Me: *cricket sound*


Boy: Come sit with me....please


Me: (shoulders crossed, face serious, dragging my feet towards him, sit next to him)


Boy: (kisses my forehead (it always gets me!) the whispers in my ear) I love you baby...so much


Me: *cricket sound but with a smirk on my face*


I eventually sleep in his arms for like 30 mins and I only apologised later that evening. And well, yet another valentine thats never gone the way its suppose to.


I officially dont look forward to Val from now on!



I still hate Mondays...



Sooooo...


I woke up, late, to find that my bathroom was flooded with water. The girls did their washing yesterday (lots of it!) and they "cleverly" put some wet clothes in one of those washing baskets that have holes on them. And they "thoughtfully" put it on the floor only to create a wonderful mess.















I woke up and with my eyes fully closed, made my way to the bathroom, feeling my path the whole way there. And then I tried to switch the light on. Flick...flick....flick, flick,flick!! Stupid! Your eyes are closed, then I laughed at my self and opened them all the time hoping to see light & I thought "Oh freaking hell, the light is out!!" As I stepped in, my toes sunk in the water that was gracing my bathroom floor. I said oh freaking hell!! Not freaking plumbing freaking problems again! Before I could step in again, I decided to switch the kitchen light and the dining room light on. And Lo' behold, all the lights were not working!



I screamed for the girls to wake up and remove the mess they had after all made and they had to prepare for school anyway. So I sat in the dark bedroom, coz I don't have candles, and waited for them to finish so that I can wash my face, and....there wasn't any water! I promise today was born to be bad. Good thing it was the whole area that didn't have water and lights not just me...but that doesn't make it ok! And anyway I was late!ARGGHHHH, so I hustled for some drops of water from the kettle, and there was just enough for my face.


We were all grumpy in the house. No one spoke to anyone till I left then I heard one of the girls say under their breath before I opened the door "bye". And my response was "yah". Now when I answer a greeting or any question by saying "yah" then you know hell is breaking loose in my head! So I left the house.


....without a jersey and I was freezing as I was walking towards my transport. I kicked myself. I wasn't gonna go back, I had already come so far (5 steps from the house). So I walked.

But then it dawned upon me that yes indeed Monday did start out horrible! It did. But does it have to end that way? I guess its my choice right. I don't think I will let my whole day be messed coz of me not bathing (I did wipe), and me choosing the wrong outfit (coz I couldn't see in the dark).

I WILL have a good day! And maybe someday I can actually learn to love me Mondays... lets work with this one for now.

I have decided on what to get him...

I am buying a mug and writting him a poem! Easy peasy!
Enjoy your Valentine's Weekend

Valentines is coming up...





...and I am dead broke!


I don't know what to do. I promise I didn't spend too much this month, God is my witness. I really wanted to get him this other Timberland boot he really needed I actually mean "wanted". Those things are gonna leave a hole in my pocket. I think I will buy them for his birthday in March. I mean then I can combine the birthday and valentine gift together, yes? Maybe not. *sigh*

I was thinking....nah let me not. (yeh exactly what you are thinking, good idea but..)

I want a cheap good idea that doesn't involve money. Flip! This is gonna be harder than I thought. I know he is getting me something and I am gonna feel bad not giving him anything unless I consider something which is what I really don't wanna end having to consider...Argh!
Ok, so my man and I have dated for two complicated years and known each other for 3. We dated in 2007 broke up in 2008 and dated again in 2009 till to date. What happened is a long sad story which i will probably speak about in another post. So, neh, during the times we dated we always seemed to break up (you know the small fights and then the girl screams "its over" then the break up lasts for two days then we kiss and make up?) around our birthdays and valentines. so we never really bought each other gifts around those times coz there was no need to.
Now there is no sign of us breaking up for Valentines! What do I do coz it had become tradition to break up during special days. Maybe he has forgotten.. Do I remind him?.. lol. Hint for a small break when the 13 of Feb hits!
What do ya'll have planned? Maybe I can steal from your ideas or maybe one of ya'll can steal from mine, breaking up is easy! Just kiddin :)

Things, Thoughts and other Things

Well now the tooth has been removed. Been 2 weeks already. Its way better but I was taking some crazy bum pain killers (love the stuff, it makes me feel high). And i had stitches on the hole (wisdon tooth). Yes stitches! The doc said the hole was too big she had to put 6 stitches. Painfull? Yes. Had to sit in the queue to see the dentist for a good 4 hours. Mr. Boyfriend skipped work to take me there. Now thats a good man. While waiting there was a girl my age that went in and she was screaming like no man's business. I freaked out and I wanted to poop in my skirt coz I was scared it was gonna hurt. When she got out she was still screaming and I told boyfriend "Please dont let them kill me! They gonna kill me! Why are you letting them kill me?!" He assured me evrything was gonna be ok, and well he was right. I didnt even flinch *applause*. I am very scared of pain. Call me chicken.



I got a puppy. A chihauhua (awwwwwwwww). She is so cute and so small. She is a "Tea-cup Chihuahua" I love her to bits and so do the girls (my sister and my baby girl). We named her Vanilla. Why? Coz we wanted too?! We wrote down a number of names and we picked them out of the hat. The original one we picked up was "Missy", the girls liked that one but since I didnt like that one, we repicked the names and missy came out first again. Sooooo, since I am the oldest I decided to manupilate the situation and we chose Vanilla. It suits her, and its a unique name. Everyone is in love with her (friends and all o' em). Flip! still have to potty train her though!! This is not her but she looks something like this but she a bit bigger. She is cute , even though cleaning up the poo sucks


I honestly have been considering losing weight but with people around me that love their food its a bit too hard to do. The only exercise I get is walking to my "pick-up-place" to go to work, which is 10min away from where i stay and going up the stairs at work. And besides healthy food doesnt taste nice. Well unless Jamie Oliver cooks it. I dont know what I am gonna do. Im a size 36... Yes I would love to be a 30 and my friend's wedding is in October. ARGHH. I dont have time to go to the gym. There is just so many other things to do. Ok we will talk about this weight thing another time, let me finish this slice of cheese cake first.



So, I really like Corinne Bailey Rae. I love the soulfullness of her music and she has beautiful voice. I am still listening to an old album, her first self titled album, that I could never get enough of. She is a beautiful young lady and I REALLLY love her music. She rocks left, right and center. Love her, love her, love her!
She is 31. She got married at 22 and her husband, Jason Rae, died when she was 28. He had taken an overdose of drugs so yah. She became a widow at a very young age, tjo!

Anyway heres to Monday again. I am praying for an awesome week and wish ya'll the same

Zino! (Tooth Ache)

ARGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!

My wisdom tooth is KILLING me!!!!!!!! Thing is I swallowed a filling last year. Now understand me when I say I have had this filling since I was 6 or 7? Ok, 14 years later this filling must have gotten tired of all the cadburys, mazadzadama, kendi keke, scrumcious cheese cake (yum...flip I am on a diet) and all the divine comfort food you can think of. Now its corroding. I dont know why i left it for so long!


Now I am in a good amount of pain.


I want the dentist and I want him now! On Saturday evening, myself, mr. boyfriend and my two teenage girls where preparing to go for some KFC (my diet only started today if you were wondering) and I was starving so i decided to chow on some bread before hitting the road. Good old tea nechingwa chine majarini. So I took a grown woman size bite and sipped on the tea. In my head it happened in slow motion. I chewed once...twice....then on the third chew, the bread did a summersault in my mouth and landed on my already rotting hole. I felt pain at its intensity and I cried out so loud mr. boyfriend took a while to get to me. And the fact that he took his freaking time made me cry much louder!


Poor guy didnt know what to say. There is a big chance the neighbours could have heard me coz I screamed and then I cried like what those women do at Zim funerals. Maiweeeeeee!


What a good start to my diet, now I cant eat anything at all!

But hey we did go to KFC after all and yes I had streetwise two! I wasnt gonna let a stupid tooth get in the way of my cravings. I chewed with one side but today, eissssh, today I cant even drink water without cringing.


Stupid tooth.

The Jesus kinda Love

I,
love the way you love with a love unlike any kinda love
I,
Run to you my safe haven
And,
When the hitches and glitches of life toughen
When the world seems to offer me no solution
And,
Amid those times that I can't trust my intuition
I,
Run to sit witchu and,
Discuss witchu 'bout...
Or rather,
I run to you and,
Cry on you and,
Tug on you begging you to,
Gimme that kinda love that loves only the way you can love,
That kinda love that leaves me loving the ones I once thought unlovable,
I,
Want that kinda love that smiles at strangers driving the latest Range Rovers, jus kidding
That kinda love makes me be the exact me you thought of when you made me.
Sometimes I,
Wanna strive to attain your perfection
To see you reflection,
When I look in the mirror,
I,
Wanna be molded in your structure,
Folded in your stature
Become some'in like your statue
I,
Wanna live for your pleasure
Forgive more than ten times
Love with your measure.
I,
love the way you love with a love unlike any kinda love
Your endless love

  • I wish I had slept early last night

  • Didn't pack enough lunch and didn't carry my card

  • I want my boyfriend to hug me and kiss my forehead (makes me feel...I cant explain it)

  • I just found out I cant get a drivers licence in SA coz I am a foreigner, so i need to go back kumusha (home) to get an international one.

  • I dont have enough leave days to go back home to do the above :(

  • Might not achive my goal of driving this year (ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH)

  • This fancy Yardley lip gloss burns! Thats why my friend, Nkebe yes you, swaped it for my cheap Clicks brand (Essence), which never burns but still does its job! I hate you right now friend!

  • Period pain (need I say more)

  • Getting paid this week but it seems so far!

  • I have run out of roll on :( but I jacked my little sister's Shower to Shower (works for a minute only, where is that freakin pay day?)

But on the other hand, God is still the same. Woke up this morning and bathed with warm water and soap.


I was literally about to break the body cream container to be able to get a little bit of the remaining cream out of the bottle.


Kissed my baby bye, and she looks adorable in high school uniform :). And my baby sis makes me laugh every morning coz her voice is at its deepest early morn. We make a great tag team when it comes to jokes. Luv this bunch.


Arrived safely to work.


And I still have a job.


Have a God filled day.

Are ready for.....




Well well, more of endless lists of resolutions. Sad to say I never went through with most of my 2009 ones. I told my self I was gonna shop less and save more. Unlike my "perfectly, disciplined, non shopping friends" I couldn't go through with it. I am a SuCkEr for nice things! Big and small, clothes or gifts! I got absolutely go all out when I am shopping. I never settle for less, I'm sorry ok! If people are thinking "Oh my gosh, she is so reckless" while reading this then kiss my black chipped nail polished foot! Coz that's the way I is! Ok now that I have let you have a mild dose of my mini tantrums, I'll let u in on some of the things I had made resolutions for 2010
  • To not make too many promises at once

Maybe I am the only one in the world that's stupid enough, and a big people pleaser, that I make 85 promises to 85 different people scheduled at the same time on the same day! I hate myself for that!! No, seriously people. Let me tell you about how pathetic I made someone elses Christmas become..

It was a beautiful day on the 24th of Dec in 2009. I was walking with Mr. Boyfriend...*sigh* and then his friend since they were kids, appeared from a nearby corner. He said he was gonna make Christmas dinner and it was gonna be me and mr. man and him and his girl. Just the four of us.

I say to him nah we can make it dude we are definitely coming! But on Christmas day I was hosting a braai at my house (note he didn't know this), all expenses on me (don't talk to me about the January disease please). So i was thinking to myself how i was gonna work this, I had more than 25 people coming at house (tiny apartment God forbid!) and they were suppose to be all gone by 5 then the dinner was gonna be at 6, right so I had this planned right? Wrong! People only started leaving after 7. Yah you guessed it. I didn't go to the dinner or worse yet, "we" didn't go! And i was too much a chicken to even call and apologise.

Lets just say things are still a bit tense. That's just one of the million things I make endless promises for just by the way. NOT a good move!

  • To be a good girlfriend

I am a good loving girlfriend! I am! Now leave me alone!

  • To eat less

Now listen to me carefully, this is not a promise. I Lurrrrrvvv me food. But I know its not healthy. And me being the not so active person I am (sleeping being the 2nd hobby after food) doesn't help. I really need to cut down on those Spur Buffalo Wings....*drool*, KFC Hawaiian burgers...., its gonna be hard. But hey I gotta look fab for my girls wedding in October. Denise you owe me BIG time dude!

  • To work harder

I don't like the fact that i can easily get comfortable! I need to pull up me socks and not take the job I love so much for granted! And I need to get into college fast!!

Last but not least, the best one...

  • To grow closer to God

He has been awfully good to me and honestly I think sometimes as human beings we don't recognise the small wonderful things He has placed in our lives. I love Him, I truly do. Lord, do as You please with me. I offer myself as a living sacrifice this year. May all that I do be soaked in Your magnificent blessings...
