Well I don't have it in my possession yet, but I have accomplished Adventure 14, getting my passport!!!!
It should take about 3 weeks to recieve the actual physical hold in my hand passport book, but it is bought and in the works! This is a real accomplishment because it works toward my lifelong bucket list to travel and see the world. I know that there isn't a lot of traveling on my adventure list but that is because my blog goals are to accomplish these things before Joslyn turns 5, since she is 2 now that doesn't leave me a lot of time to accomplish these goals. 14 in a year isn't very spectacular, I know. But since we are working on a limited budget and have many adventures that are expensive or require other circumstances. But God has done great works in me so far through this list and will continue to bless me and others by continuing to help me accomplish these. How is a silly adventure list part of God's plan, you ask? Well, since I lived most of my life avoiding any kind of risk and choosing to hide in the shadows by not drawing attention to myself. Every week you hear me talk about Celebrate Recovery and the changes it has made in me. But one of the biggest changes has occured within, when I truly realized my worth in God and therefore make the decisions to live out in the open and out of the box. What others think of me are irrevelent compared to what God feels about me. Each time I accomplish an adventure that is either scary or draws attention to me, I am fullfilling God's plan and breaking those chains of unworthiness and self worth that used to control my every move. So each week I expose myself a little more, to draw closer to my Savior and if you don't like it, then so be it! I do love you though because God loves you and me, we are and will always be important in His eyes!
P.S. I will update this post when I get the actual passport. I am not a huge fan of the picture, but oh well what can I do about that? I will be really really excited when I get my first stamp in my new passport!
Great picture!! Good job!! Congratulations!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Marcie! I am glad it is done, one less thing to worry about!
ReplyDeleteWoohoo! Now you can actually GO when you win that trip on the radio! :D (you should see my photo, I look like a crack addict - stringy hair, bugged out eyes, it's quality - even looks better when they put it in black and white w/ wavy lines over top)
ReplyDeleteLol Kat would you like to provide me a copy for my viewing pleasure, its only fair? J/K. Mine is much better than my drivers licence pic which was when i was 8 months pregnant and swollen from had to toe! So I can't complain too much, I do get amusement out of the fact that I better look 50 pounds Skinner than that fact when i do go on my cruise next year, so excited! Greenie and I are going!
