Fun Friday :) Filled with Family :) And other stuff

This has been a family filled fun weekend! My sister was here briefly. This is a treasure to me because I rarely see her. She lives in Dallas, TX and is only in Charlotte for her high school reunion. We see each other about once a year, maybe. It was so good to spend a little time with her. She even bought me a new pair of running shoes. But better than that, we got to talk uninterrupted. No kids. No husbands. No parents. Just us. I loved it. I'll have to share her story here sometime. It's amazing. I mean really amazing.

Friday night, we went to a high school football game. Our team won. yeah! Afterwards, we came home and watched "Overboard" on TV Land.

Saturday, Jeff and I slept in until 10 am! Sweet! When was the last time that happened??? IDK. And what did I do all day? Watch football ofcourse. Gamecocks lost. Stinky. But Hayden's team won. And now I'm watching USC whoop Ohio State. Ha!

Well, I haven't reported about counseling yet. But let me just say, I got my $90 worth. It was so validating and encouraging and confirming. I just really needed a little refresher. The guidance and wisdom coming from my counselor was exactly what I needed. She reminded me of what I already know but am struggling with in life right now. I honestly think everyone could benefit from a good Christian counselor. I know I have.

Well, beautiful friends, I pray that you are having a great weekend. Fun. Family. And other stuff.

Love,

Melissa

Glad you had such a great time with your sister. With the weather Texas experienced, glad your sister was safe with you.

My husband had football on TV here yesterday and I immediately thought of you! Glad you're enjoying your games and that your teams are winning!

Have a great day,
Love & prayers,
Joy

I am so glad to hear of the family fun. Listen I was out of it for a while, but this counseling thing. I think it is great, I see someone for my pain. You go girl. I haven't heard much about the WW thing. Are you still going? If so what is the report, just hold you accountable. I have gained, and have to do something about it.
Love ya
Thanks for all your prayers during my surgery. I am bored to tears staying off my feet.
