Proverbs 31 Woman

I’m guesting today over at my friend Lana’s.  She is doing a series called, “Where in the World is THAT Proverbs 31 Lady?” .   The series runs every Friday and has a lot of different authors, each with their own perspective on Proverbs 31.  I hope you’ll go over and read some of the inspiring posts about this amazing woman.

This morning my friend Sara and I are going to visit my sister who lives a couple of hours away in Austin, the capitol of Texas (that’s just a little piece of bonus information that has nothing to do with this post).  She had a baby yesterday….hooray!  I can’t wait to meet my new niece.  I am taking one of my market totes along with me in case I can’t stand to part with her and need something to sneak her out in.

Two hours though, I am not sure I am ready to get back in the car after my long drive to Georgia.  My behind is still giving me grief about sitting so much.  I am glad Sara will be behind the wheel this time so I can twist a little in my seat and move my legs.  And since it’s a girlfriend driving I know she will stop anytime I need a potty break.  Only another woman over 40 really understands the depth of the need to stop immediately.  Not in 5 minutes….NOW.

Hopefully between driving, baby holding and potty breaks we can find time to run a few errands.  Life in a small town is wonderful, but sometimes you just need a craft store or Chick-fil-A or some place besides Payless to buy shoes.  You can be sure we will make a quick stop at IKEA.  Not that I need anything….but my sister lives 5 minutes from there and it would be all kinds of wrong if I didn’t at least stop.  It’s like the mothership calling me ”Come little one….come see what cheap things I am selling today that you have to assemble yourself and will fit into a 325 square foot apartment…..”

While Sara and I run around Austin getting into trouble, I hope you’ll head over to Lana’s and read my post on the Proverbs 31 woman.
