PIGS

I was at the mall today enjoying lunch with Jennifer.

These two guys were sitting at the table beside us.

We were talking and we heard vulgar comments.

Every female with in eyesight was degraded in some way.

They commented on women's chest, butt, body, and anything else.

It was terrible.

It took everything I had not to turn around and punch them.

I wanted nothing more than to tell them exactly what I thought of them.

Guys like that are why women feel so self conscious! 

It was embarrassing being a woman and hearing them talking that way!

I should not have to feel that way.

NO woman should!

PIGS.

Guys like that are pigs.

Did I lie!?!?

Well OK so I said I was doing nothing, not true!

Don't get me wrong-it was the original "plan."

It just didn't happen.

I had an eventful couple of days.

BUT I am back at work now. =(

And back to the basics.

Which is work.

Oh and some sleep!

My apologies for my "lie."

haha

Eyes

My eyes are prone to infection, so I assumed the other night when my eyes were really sore that I was just possibly getting another infection.

little did I know that I had pink eye! It started either Saturday night or Sunday and I went to the doctor on Tuesday. By then it was in both eyes and didn't feel good. So, I am supposed to wear a patch on the right eye and use my eye drops blah blah.... Oh and I am out of work until Friday. This could be taken as good or bad! Good because who wants to work third shift? Bad because who wants to be broke?

Patch? tried it and I could hardly drive.  It was entertaining though. =) 

So I am of course going to ignore the doctor and NOT wear the patch until my eye starts hurting really bad. =)

Oh and the really fun part.... I baby sat on Sunday and I decided to call the person I baby sat for and tell her I had pink eye. I wanted her to know incase her son got it or something. She was very appreciative but man was I embarrassed. 

SO if anyone needs anything I'll just be sitting here with my Pink eyes doing nothing.

HELLO

What is age?

I think age is a number-NOT a title.

I may be young, but I am still competent.

I am not stupid and I do know what I am doing.

I don't always do it right or perfect, but I try my hardest.

I might not always know what is next, but who does?

I don't know where I am going in life, but I do know where I'm not.

Age is important, but it isn't everything. 

Some people need to open their eyes and realize that.

whoa

A fragment of a conversation I had today....

"I am willing to stick my neck out for you . I want to help you, Kattie. I care about you."

To say the least- I was shocked! Wasn't asking for it and I didn't expect it. 

Made me feel good....

WRONG

What I did.

What I didn't do.

What I should have done.

What I shouldn't have done.

What I could of done.

Everything was wrong.

Everyone had something to say about everything I did, didn't do, etc....

You ever have one of those days when it's just NEVER good enough for anyone? Even though you did everything you were supposed to do and you KNOW you did it CORRECTLY and to the best of your ability! Third shift last night/this morning was like that for me. It is so discouraging!

I don't see how other people can intentionally make someone feel so bad about  themselves.  People that just say things to bring you down and make you feel like an itsy-bitsy little paper clip that isn't even good for holding papers together! Well, it HURTS and I think people like that must feel really bad about themselves and just want others to feel the same way, BUT no matter how bad about myself I may feel sometimes, how hurt I may be, haw alone I may feel I don't want others to have to feel that way too!

Please think before you hurt someone else! It isn't nice and like I said it HURTS terribly bad.

My God is with me....

Knowing that God is with ME....

What encouragement!

When things get tough it is easy for me to turn to things other than God and let my focus turn to other things to make it "better."

BUT God is still there waiting on me to turn to Him!

It works out!

Yesterday church was canceled for "ice." I was leaving work around 6:15am and there was hardly any ice on the road!! BUT I did get some MUCH needed rest! 

Today my car wouldn't start and my roommate, Jennifer, was sick! BUT since she was at home sick I was able to take her car to work! My car is working now and Jennifer is feeling better!

Things worked out for the best!

A good day....

What could be better?

I'm at my aunt's and family is in town.

I am sitting on the couch with my cousin Hannah.

I just had a glass of chocolate milk.

I am worn out from work, but still alive.

Tomorrow is church.

IT is SNOWING!!

Today is already a good day!

Hope everyone else is having a good day!

FRIDAY MORNING THOUGHTS

FRIDAY MORNING THOUGHTS....

• Today is PAYDAY!
• I have laundry to do.
• This week, God showed me what BIG things he can do. He is teaching me that he can do BIG things not only with Catalyst but inside of me and in my own life!
• I have to work third shift tonight, not the greatest, but everyone has to work at some point. 
• I am pumped about church this Sunday! 
• I know God is going to do BIG things and I feel so encouraged by knowing that and by seeing what God has already done and I know He can do SO much MORE!
• Some of my family is in town and I will get to spend time with them before work today!
•   I LOVE TODAY!
  

I hope everyone has a GREAT Friday!

THANKS!

Go GOD!!

Catalyst made it!

God Provided!

The goal was met!

Thank you to everyone who prayed BIG and gave generously!

Continue to pray for God to do big things with Catalyst and in YOUR own lives!

It's pretty hard....

Commitment....

Such a small word, But TONS of meaning!

Committing can be hard.

No matter what it is....

Relationships, Tithing, Friendships, School, Work, Family....

Whatever it may be, it can be hard!

It takes effort, dependability, and other stuff.

It is hard to be tied to something, but it can be so wonderful too!

Don't miss out of some things in life because you are afraid to commit.

Sometimes being afraid can keep us from a wonderful experience....

Still praying BIG for Catalyst!!

I hope everyone is still praying BIG for Catalyst!

We still have a $10,000 to go to reach our goal (by Tomorrow)!

It isn't near as much as our original $35,ooo, so I know it can happen!

Please visit HERE to find out more details and how you can give!

Thanks everyone for your prayers and support! 

Keep it up!

Pray BIG for Catalyst....

The thought of there no longer being a Catalyst Church bothers me.

It makes me want to give all the money I can find in the world.

NO church should have to close because of financial issues.

This bothers me and I wish it wasn't the case, but it is.

I have decided to write a check that I don't see as doing much, but that I know God can do BIG things with. I will pray that God will make something BIG out of each little bit that is given.

I will also be praying for God to give Catalyst staff strength to not get discouraged.

Everyone PLEASE pray BIG for Catalyst! 

Catalyst works. It needs to keep working!

What do you know?

A few things I know as of thus far in life....

I don't want to be a nobody.
I want to do something important with my life. I really don't want to just stay where I am and do nothing useful with my life. I want to help people and do things for others. I HAVE to make a difference.

It takes courage to live.
It takes courage to go through each day and survive. The world can be a cruel place, as well as many of the people here. I believe that everyone has wanted to give up at one time or another, and not giving up and going on takes a lot of courage and strength.

Life is hard.
There is a lot of stuff in life that can be difficult. Decisions, responsibilities, friends, family....the list goes on. (Life isn't all bad though)

What do you know?

hmm another one of those decisions....

I don't really like being faced with things.
Especially things I am not so proud of.
and that I have to do something about.
Things where decisions have to be made.
decisions that will change things.
You know the hard decisions.

I made a really hard decision today.
I was praying and I honestly still didn't know what to do.
I don't think I was listening.
But none the less the decision is made now.
Besides I think this will be for the best.
for now atleast.

It's going to work out!

Last night I got mad at God....
Then I realized He is most definatly looking out for me!
It trips me out how I think I know what is best for me,
but most of the time I am soo NOT right!
God knows what is best for me.
I sure don't.
SO I am going to have to just keep trusting that God has got this.
Everything is going to work out!
