Excuses! Excuses!

So it’s been about a monthish since the end of my May Term class and my time helping the youth group this summer (Don’t worry I’ll be back!) I've been getting into a summer routine and by routine I mean wake up between 10:30 and noon show my face when I want to eat and stay mostly in my room because by my standards my family isn't doing anything (our standards are different)  and I want to do something, but in my want to do something, I've realized I'm doing nothing... And it makes me mad! What's my excuse? I don't have a car so I can't go anywhere or I don't feel like reading! I this or I that! the list can go on and on... As weird as this sounds what got me so fired up about not doing anything was an episode of biggest loser.... The theme for the season is no excuses! So I'm changing what I'm doing so I can feel like I'm doing something! My goal may not be to lose weight...but I could be reading more, working on art, practicing the guitar more since I kinda slacked off…a lot (enter sad puppy dog look…?) I know that it is going to take a little to start doing something… but hey something’s better than nothing…right? 

Another thing, using my family as an excuse for doing nothing is not an excuse at all… (by the way… they don’t do nothing!) It just feels like it sometimes! Neither is the excuse of my friends are busy and… It doesn't matter if my friends are busy… do I like hanging out with people? Definitely! I’m an extrovert… I thrive when I’m around people, but I don’t need people in order for me to do something! I am me… 1 person and as such I can do things!

Challenge time! :D  My challenge for you guys this week: put aside your excuses… or at least one and do something! You guys are awesome, and you all have something to give… Remember that! Don't be afraid to take that step! You've got this! Now... No more excuses!

God Bless!
He has made you beautiful!
