Refresh

(This is not a paid post, because thus far, have never done so, this is purely from me because I love it so much)

The day before Thanksgiving my best friend called me to let me know she had just drove by the YMCA and that on Cyber Monday they we having a deal: join for free {no activation fee} & first month free. We (me, her and our husbands) had been discussing getting a y membership, more than the current membership we had but CHILD WATCH! 

On Cyber Monday, Cassie & I went and signed up. 
I love it. So much gym equipment, no waiting for machines. And classes galore.

And child watch, you receive 2 1/2 hours to work that rear off kid free. 

It's not just the working out, that is good for the body, but the time. Not all moms, in all seasons feel the need for that time for self and that's ok. When the twins were babies I would get so angry when people said I needed time away, because in that season I didn't, I wanted and needed to be with them always. 

But right now, in this season, I need some mental time away. 



If you have considered getting a Y membership, I highly encourage it if you have the room in your budget. 
Bonus is it's not a contract, so if you come into a stormy season financially just tell them you have to stop and they'll stop it.

Hello if you don't know me I'm Katie I {obviously} blog here and you can find my instagram & twitter ---> Two things in my bag: 1. My cute little notebooks I found at Target and a variety of pens. I love pens. No seriously, you should see my pen + sharpie box.  2. My phone. I am a HUGE picture taker. I love taking pictures and using all the fun picture apps and posting pictures. If you love taking pictures come find me, we can have some instagram fun!!!  Two things I'm looking forward to: 1. Hugs & coffee with friends. Friends I've never technically met. Friends that I will never forget, that will be hard to leave, that just get me. 2. Learning. Learning more about who I am. About the amazing way God created me as a woman. Learning from all these wise women that live with realness and grace. Being filled with His word. See you in 2-ish weeks!!!

We are not part of his story and he is not part of ours

"Write drunk; edit sober" -Ernest Hemingway I've never actually attempted this, but tonight I am. I've had my wine and if you know me at all it doesn't take much to get my lightheaded & giggly. I'm truly not a Windau (my maiden name) when it comes to my alcohol consumption. I put my catholic roots to shame. I'm ok with that. I'm not a mean drunk, but a purely giggly & say inappropriate thing drunk. Today stung. It stung hard. Last Tuesday we got a call for a little 5 month old baby. Technically we got a call for 4 boys but for reasons that I will not share, we could only say yes to little guy. And then there was waiting. And more waiting because our agency couldn't find a home for 4 of the little guys, they came from a sibling group of 6. All 6. Boys. That would be headed for permanent custody. In my mind all the things lined up. I had prayed for an orphan. I had been learning about how to bond with a baby in the adoption sens...
