I didn't realize how much I needed a day to chill until I actually took a day to veg and do absolutely nothing. It was amazing! As I mentioned in my previous post, I didn't sleep much past 8, so I got up and watched
Oprah. She had a bunch of country stars on it, including Carrie Underwood, one of my favorites. It was an enjoyable hour. Next on the agenda was catching up on blogs, then watching Monday's episode of
The Hills. Am I the only one who thinks the drama on that show has multiplied by 100 this season? I keep telling myself I won't watch it anymore, but it's like
The Bachelor; I keep going back!
There was one productive thing I managed to do yesterday: I reorganized my linen closet. It was an easy project that I'd been wanting to do for a while, and since I like organizing, it was a good task to tackle. That was followed by reading a magazine, falling asleep on the couch, then watching
Ellen before leaving to pick up Dave. I felt rested for the first time in I don't know how long. Considering I'm an introvert, the day of silence and solitude was the perfect therapy for me to recharge.
As if that weren't enough to make my day off splendid, the day got even better when I went to see Hillsong London in concert with Julie V. and some peeps from my old church. We weren't sure what to expect, since we're only familiar with Hillsong United songs, but we were pleasantly surprised to have the chance to sing a bunch of Hillsong United classics as well as Hillsong London songs. I discovered a new favorite, "You Are Here (The Same Power)." I've listened to it a bunch of times already today, and I love focusing on this line: "The same power that conquered the grave lives in me." Perhaps because we're so near to Easter, I'm more focused on the defeat of the grave by our Savior, but that line encourages me so much. I serve a God who committed the impossible, and that same mighty God lives in me and is capable of doing the supernatural in my life. Amazing!
