Thursday, October 9, 2014. Two Sides to Every Story. Perspective #1: I have so much to be thankful for! My baby slept until 7:30 this morning! I got around 7 hours of sleep (which is so much better than the 2-3 hours at a time I got in the beginning! Perspective #2: There is so much going wrong! There really are 2 sides to every story! Writing out these two different perspectives of the exact same morning is an exercise that the author of Calm My Anxious Heart recommended. After you write out the dif...

Saturday, June 9, 2012. The last time I had a blog, it was called " Life on Seawell Avenue. A lot has changed since I moved from there! The last post I wrote was about buying my house. Since then, many more things have changed! I started dating Alex Batista, I got engaged to Alex Batista, and on November 13, 2011, I became Mrs. Alicia Batista!

My vacations with my best friends (and now with my husband) consist of planning out the new restaurants we will visit, and then we fill up the time in between meals with talking and maybe planning a thing or two (including where our next meal will be). I live to eat. until recently. Here's to trying, even if we fail :). The top is the chore chart I made, and the bottom is our meal plan. Posted by Mrs. Alicia Batista. My goodness, ...

Tuesday, January 20, 2015. My Journey Through Cynicism. I came across this article: " Is Christian Cynicism a Spiritual Sickness? This morning. It is good. And it close-to-perfectly describes me lately. Lately, as in the last few years. I couldn't put it into words adequately, until I read the article. It helped me get to the bottom of a few things, including my own cynicism, how it began, and where I go from here. It snowballed from there. I'm an observer, and once I realized this, I dwelled (dwelt?

Alex and Alicia: The Baby Fog
http://lifeonmilburnie.blogspot.com/2014/09/the-baby-fog.html
Wednesday, September 17, 2014. We are starting to emerge from the "baby fog" that has been over us for the last 2 months. He's not sleeping through the night completely yet, and we don't know why he screams all the time. He has good days and then he has very very bad days, but things are slowly starting to normalize. Even with all the things that I get frustrated about on a daily (hourly) basis, it will do my heart good to list some things I'm incredibly thankful for:. On Alex's 2 extra long days at work...

Friday, September 26, 2014. For I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and. Hunger, abundance and. Need I can do all things through him who strengthens me.". A tranquil heart gives life to the flesh, but envy makes the bones rot. I wrote two different blogs about 5 years ago about comparison in general. And comparison and Facebook. What am I doing wrong?

Alex and Alicia: November 2012
http://lifeonmilburnie.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 12, 2012. I said this with excitement one year ago, and I have not once regretted it. Of course, I didn't quite know what marriage would be like, but I knew it was the right thing for both of us. It has come with many challenges, more joys, and moments of thinking to ourselves, "Wow. Guys and girls are SO different! Coming together to live as one, when we had both been single for a while, brought other challenges. In an earlier blog. Fun, laughter, prayer, and sleep. Sunday morning, we h...

http://lifeonmilburnie.blogspot.com/2014/10/10-years-ago-this-week.html
Wednesday, October 29, 2014. 10 years ago this week. I ran into Hallie's room. Our friend Valerie was spending the night, and I didn't know what to do, I just burst into tears and said, "My mom's dying! I have to leave! He's there. Piggly Wiggly? He's there. Dollar store? There) Guess who happened to be visiting someone at the hospital? And guess who was in the room at the time of my mom's death? What a dark moment, yet so full of hope. We are not meant to die! Look so similar of my mom and me and of Luc...
