Conversation #52: The Sing-Off is BACK!

I realize most of you may not be near as excited as I am, but having grown up in the Church of Christ, surrounded by acapella music, a music competition that features it just completely wins over my heart. You can’t fake it when there are no instruments to cover it up!

I loved some of the competitors last year, but this year is really bringing the talent. They are all so amazing. Here are just a few of my faves so far:

(P.S. It is on Mondays and Wednesdays on NBC if you want to check it out)

This is my season favorite so far – it is AWESOME:

I also really enjoyed this one:

A super talented group with a jazzy feel, but their harmonies are amazing:

Only my favorite song of the year I think:

And finally, The Backbeats – they are pretty great too!

You should really check out the show – I just can’t wait for the new episodes each week. It is seriously that good (in my opinion anyway).

A Conversation about Absenteeism

Wow! It has been too long. I have still kept up on reading everyone’s blogs, but commenting and writing have been out the window for me. I have thought often about blog topics, and I’ll try to get back on regular posts tomorrow. Basically, the last few weeks have been full of preparing for this past Saturday. What was this past Saturday, you may ask? My incredibly intelligent and amazing husband graduated from law school!!!!!!!!! I can hardly contain my excitement. I am proud beyond words, and now we just have one last hurdle: the bar exam. I know the next two and half months will still be full of study, but it still doesn’t squash my excitement of no more late night classes, missed parties, or tension filled finals weeks. We are done! I only say “we” because it is definitely a path that affects both the student and family, but trust me, the hubby did ALL the work! Needless to say though, we had lots of family in town...

Conversation #32: Kitchen Design Help!

Okay, I don’t really know that too many people read this blog since I moved to a new address, but I’m begging if you do, please help me. I am at a loss on what to do with part of my kitchen. Here is how I painted my kitchen 3 years ago: It was fun, bright, and I like it, but we decided it needed to be a bit more grown-up these days. I knew we would have to paint it before we moved so we decided to just go ahead and do it now for a change. We decided to go with a gray so that it would be neutral but not boring. However, the gray had a strong blue tone to it on the walls and now I need to phase out my turquoise decor I think. Here are some afters (still putting it back together): Some of these are the same shots but with/without flash to show the colors. I think I really like the new color, but the turquoise trim does not go anymore in my opinion. I’m trying to figure out what to do with it, and I need help!!! ...

Conversation #204: My Jesus...

Oh Facebook and social media of all kinds...we have a love hate/relationship. Lately, these days, I feel it is more hate only because I allow myself to be depressed by things I see. I recently told someone the other day that I had lost faith in humanity, and then it hit me, that is exactly where I should be. We are a fallen people in a fallen world, and I should have NO faith in humanity. Why did that take me 30 years to figure out? So there has been a lot of political/social stuff swirling around, and division among Christians, and I hate it. Like I said, I have no faith in humanity and realizing that was a good reminder it should ALL be in the Lord. Even though there are definitely things going on in this world that reject the truth of the Gospel, Jesus, the thing that scares me the most these days is the phrase I alluded to in the title: "my Jesus wouldn't believe this" or "I can't follow a God that would say that" or "I just don't believ...
