Weekend Wrap-Up: Friends, Hunger Games & Pretty Blooms

Happy Monday, friends!

Last week was a weird one… I didn’t have to go back to work until Thursday (yay!), but when I DID go back, I felt like Thursday was a Monday and Friday was a Tuesday. So, needless to say, I felt a little “off” all week!

Our weekend wasn’t busy in terms of going-and-doing, but it WAS busy in terms of to-do lists! Laundry (my LEAST favorite chore), bathroom cleaning (yuck), DSE video-chats, styled shoot planning, Powersheets and my SP took over my weekend…

Things I learned/what went down:

1. My devotion from last night (above) was so spot-on with how my heart was feeling. Don’t you love when that happens?

2. No matter how many times I watch Friends, I laugh every time!! Chandler just cracks me up!

3. I finished Mockingjay, the final Hunger Games book. OH MY GOSH y’all. My mind was blown. Like, seriously. If you haven’t read the series, please jump on the bandwagon… I was skeptical at first, but I’m an official fan.

4. After I finished it (Mockingjay), I was really depressed. Now, I’m not going to tell you what happened because you need to GO READ IT, but I want to tell you why my heart was so sad… It really could be real. See, I’ve always been a huge fan of the fantasy-series’ – you know, Harry Potter, The Lord of the Rings, Twilight, even the super-hero movies. I LOVE movies like that. But The Hunger Games series broke my heart because, that could totally be our world. Humans can REALLY be that cruel (hello, world wars & genocide). As I watched the movies & read the books, my heart broke for the brokenness of that world… as in, I CRIED, y’all. I pray Jesus comes back before our world really shows it’s true colors… the colors of a broken, disgusting, heart-hardened world.

5. Enough with the deep stuff 🙂 I also played around with pretty flowers this weekend. It did my heart good, and our kitchen is super cheery!
