On the Road with Reba

September 2, 2008

I am a terrible blogger! My friends tell me that I should just talk about life. Well for me that is difficult. I don’t have an exciting life to speak of so there never seems to be anything to write about. I sleep and eat and work. And in between those exciting moments I wait in airports or drive a car in traffic. Now don’t get me wrong, I actually love my life. I love the part where I get to speak to women and I get to hear their stories. I love all the things that make up my daily existence but I have to be honest, I am not sure what to say about it in my blog.

Take today for instance. I got up this morning and had my time with the Lord. Then I started studying and preparing for messages that I will be delivering over the next few months. I did this until I got hungry so then I had a bowl of cereal. At noon I stood up and stretched and moved to my computer where I took care of some ministry details and then started writing for my next book project. Two hours later I stood up again and grabbed a quick bite of lunch as I headed out the door for a dentist appointment.

It is now 8:00 pm and I am back at my computer again. (I have been here since around 7ish). I will probably call it quits somewhere around 10pm and start all over again tomorrow.

So I call on all of you that are experienced in the world of blogging – help me out – what about this is blog worthy?

I am 25% Mexican. Well not really but sort of. I love Mexican food. It has become an important staple to my diet thus I need some stapling of my stomach. I am so grateful for my wonderful friends south of the border who have brought all their wonderful spicy dishes to Chattanooga. When I am on the road, I usually don’t get Mexican food so I am going through withdrawals by the time I get back to Chattanooga. I have a favorite restaurant in Chattanooga and I look forward to getting back to Amigos as soon as I get my suitcase unpacked. It’s really ridiculous. I would love to make Mexican food at home that tasted really good but so far I can’t duplicate my favorite restaurant. If you have any great recipes for Mexican at home let me know. And by the way, just so we are clear, Taco Bell is not a Mexican restaurant.
