Fa la la la, la la la liquid

Good morning y'all! Yesterday was the first day of my liquid diet. Not to bad, notice I said "not to bad". there were moments that I thought I would scream. Like the time a co-worker stuck a piece of pizza in my face. Or when someone else savored a "Cheezit cracker" like they were eating a slice of ,,,well you get the idea. Otherwise, I think I did pretty good.

So, today is a new day! A day filled with hope, promise, and the undeniably smooth taste of liquid! My theme song for today is..."Deck the halls with tons of fluid, Fa la la la, la la la liquid"

And the journey continues...

Yesterday, Bro. Brian brought a message about urgency. The sermon focused on the shepherds who were in the fields. You know, when an angel of the Lord appeared bringing Good News of a baby's birth. The urgency focused on the shepherds dropping everything they were doing and moving toward Bethlehem. Brian spoke that when God calls, we should drop everything and move. That's a pretty hard thing to do! Even as Christians, we know whats right and all, but still pretty hard! It was a great message on heeding God's will.

This morning, that journey I'm on continues. And I feel an urgency, if that is a feeling. Who knows? This morning I start my liquid diet. Something I have been dreading! There's the urgency! For the next 8 days, I will be on a liquid diet prepping for surgery. I thought by journaling my food, or should I say...liquid intake, might make me a little more accountable.
