We are Truck People

I love living in a small country town, where it seems almost everyone drives a truck, where I drive a truck, wearing my cute skirt and shirt, listening to some country music. Have you ever noticed that country music sounds better in a truck? Well, it does!
There are so many songs as a tribute to trucks, with lyrics such as ‘there’s somethin bout a truck’, there’s somethin women love about a pickup man’, and many others. Country people love their trucks, and I’m proud to say that now I’m one of them. :)
     Here is my mechanic's favorite song, and probably favorite video devoted to trucks. Enjoy!

I don't have to be perfect

God has asked  me to be a lot, to be His daughter, to be a living witness for Him, to be my mechanic's wifeykins, to be a mommy to be to our munchkin, but there is one thing He has not asked me to be, He has not asked me to be perfect. When the house isn't fully cleaned and I am going to take a nap, when I have barely managed to get dressed and then sit on the couch and read all day and knit, it's okay.
I have always tried to live my life like I am the perfect angel, like I have everything under control, but I don't always. And you know what? That's okay! :) As long as I have a smile on my face, and somewhat of a supper ready for my mechanic, right now, it is okay. I am not using that I feel super sick as an excuse, and I have been trying to follow my daily routine, that I have called my Calmness routine.
So, thank goodness, God has not called me to be perfect, and I need to convince myself of that! :)
