The Last Supper.....No, Seriously.....

Looks good, doesn't it? Jack Daniels Burger with cheese and bacon and french fries! Yum! That was my last greasy, I don't care what I eat, meal.

I broke a cardinal rule eating that yesterday. No, I didn't finish it all. It was too much! But, I ate it past 9:00pm! AHHH!!!! Bad girl, I know!

My husband (Erick) and I have been working on our new apartment. We tend to put a lot of energy into one project. Erick doesn't like to cut corners. It makes him crazy. So....we have been painting and cleaning like mad men (and women ;) I began my day there at 10am, then left to attend the funeral of an amazing woman who is in a wonderful place with her Father. Sheri, you will be missed! Got back around 2:30pm. Left the apartment around 6pm, I fell on the ice (feeling better today but quite stiff), went to PA to get something for a dear friend at Barnes & Noble along with a Paleo book for myself (even though there is a ton of info on the web, I like to open a book), then to Lowe's to get some things for the apartment, and then finally to dinner.

There were numerous choices in front of me. Thank you America! An aside: Do you know that we complain about having too many choices on a menu: "I don't know what to pick, there is just so much to choose from!", but then go to a restaurant that has only one sheet of menu items and we still complain! What is wrong with us?????

OK, back to my choices. I actually started thinking with a Paleo mind, even though I knew what I was getting. What can I order, substitute, and still eat clean? There was actually quite a few choices. You see, eating out is not all that bad. While Erick and I do prefer to eat in (doesn't always happen with our schedules), you can make good choices. But that's exactly it, you must make a choice!

When I think of choices, I think of the best one I have made. No, it's not the Paleo diet silly....It's to follow my Lord and Savior and give my life to Him. If I have given my life to Him, I must treat my body as a temple that houses the Holy Spirit. You want your body to be healthy then, right? After all, if He is housed within us, why wouldn't we treat ourselves with such love? Think about it.....

While you chew on that (see what I did there :), I am going to chew on my breakfast. I woke up very late (slept over 8 hrs. even with moving the clocks ahead!) so I will not go to the store until after church. Eggs and fruit it is my friend....I have a feeling that will become a staple in the am for me. ;)

I pray you find this Lord's day to be glorious!

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." (John 3:16)
