The one with happy thoughts.

I feel like my last couple of blogs have been pretty depressing. So I decided to write on the lighter side today. When going through crap I noticed that its easy to loose sight of the little things that make you happy. So I made a list. I'm not a big list maker, but I pushed through it and it was awesome.

So here's a little bit of that list:

Dove Deoderant. -If you live in the desert, you understand the NEED for a deoderant that will protect you all day and will stop you from sweating like a man. This deoderant smell AMAZING! It also reduces the visibility of hair. 
WOO to the HOO!



Paul Mitchell products.- I'm not usually a snob for anything. But I love to go to the Paul Mitchell school to get my hair did. They do a good job, and have quality products.





SHOOOOOOEEESSSS!
Need I say more?




Picture/Card board.- This is in my room. I look at this, and remember the people and events that mean the most to me. 





Freaking granola.- It's hard to describe my love for granola. It's delicious, sweet, crunchy, and pure amazing. Find me something to put granola on and I will love you forevever.





My journal and my planner.- Both of these things are essentials to my life. My journal contains all my A.D.D type thoughts, and my planner keeps my A.D.D contained. Both make me happy and sane.
Nobody wants an unhappy, insane Elisa.




My daily Bible.- I try my best to read everyday, but life gets in the way. I can tell you for sure that whenever I do read I feel ready to bring on whatever life has in store. Thanks God!





Mollie the MacBook.- I've had her for almost 3 years. And she's still going strong. I'm not one for fighting, but I will always take the side of an Apple. 





Taking pictures with props, with this chick.- And being in California, while taking pictures, with props, with this chick. But mostly this chick. :)






Every single person in this picture.- The youth group of FSBCA makes my life 10 billion times greater! I love these crazy kids! 
OOOOHHH NIIICE!





Eating Chick'n nuggets with Elias Elefante.-We were watching Community..
The greatest show on earth...
and they were eating chicken nuggets, and we both got the craving nuggets. I, of course, made "chick'n nuggets." And him with his regular nuggets. It seems dumb, but situations like these is kinda what I live for. Watching a good show, eating, relaxing...it's my favorite thing on the earth. Thanks Elias Elefante.

The one with eternity.

I’ve been shook recently on this idea of eternity. I’ve been a follower of Christ for probably around 20 years. I’m familiar with the biblical ideas and principals of eternity, but have I honestly lived like this here is my temporary home? I haven’t. How much energy, stress, and time do I spend on things that have no impact on eternity?  Oh you want examples? How about all that stress about baby sleep? Where he’s gonna sleep? How long should he be sleeping? Should he fall asleep while nursing? How about my house? We need a nicer kitchen. We need new and nicer barstools. Make sure the baby doesn’t mess with this thing or that thing because it can’t get ruined! How about my wardrobe? My last spending spree was long before I had my baby- so I need an update. Y’all. God never promised us nice things. He promised to provide for us. What if, every time we start to worry about something we ask: what’s the impact this has on eternity?  If the answer is a big fat “none,” then maybe sto...

The one with stuff I wanna do.

Basic list of stuff I wanna do. No I'm not trying to be like Buried Life. Except that I am. 1. Finish school. Yes it might seem like something that's "Eh," I have now concluded to the fact that school  is not working for me. I am not a good student. At all. So there ya go. 2. Put a ring on it. Or have him put a ring on it. I could go on for days about my wedding, and more impotantly being married. But, everytime I talk about it go wayyyyy overboard. So movin on. 3. Learn to be good with babies. Yes I can work with kids. Pretty much any age after 2, I got this. Babies....ahhhhhh. 4. Learn to be Susie Homemaker. I wanna knit, sew, cook, and what have you. I was going to say have a clean house... But who are we kidding. I just know be a super creative and awesome wife and mom. 5. Be a teacher. I've been super discouarged lately about my teaching and educating abilities based on the mere fact that I am such a horrible student. My logic is, how on earth can...

The one with the storm.

I'm a desert rat. Raised in Arizona, when it rains, it's a good day. Here at Lope town, we've been having good weather. Rain. Thunder. Lightining. Wind. Cool weather. Totally the soup eating, latte sipping, slipper wearing, curl up with a good book type of weather. So my obvious reaction is to take pictures. Duh: And then the nice rain, turned to hail. And then the hail turned to bigger hail. And the bigger hail + the strong winds = broken window for our apt and all over chaos here at GCU. Thankfully no one was hurt, or injured. It really made me think about storms and life. Uh-oh, Elisa has a moral to the story.... Things might seem okay. Seem managable. Maybe even see beautiful. But can you still see beauty in things when you have broken window? Can you still see the beauty when your car looks like a golf ball with all the dents? There's a reason why the Bible has so many analogies between storms and hard times in life. Storms cause physical d...
