I had a little talk with God yesterday morning while the rest of the house slept. I told him that I din't think I could take care of this weight issue without his intervention. I asked that he help me be strong and not to give into temptation.

I did great until about noon. All of a sudden I remembered there were no bake cookies in my car. Not just no bake cookies but PEANUT BUTTER No bakes. I thought the hell with it I kind of deserve to get the cookie and a cup of coffee and hide in the garage and begin Operation No Cookie Left Behind.

I side tracked the children with their lunch and I ran out to the car to grab the forbidden fruits. The car was locked. I ran back in and searched for the keys. We have two sets... I could not find either set. I looked and looked. I became frantic and emptied the garbage can. I looked behind the fridge ALL OF MY POCKETS TO EVERYTHING I OWN! I moved the couch and the love seat! I made the kids line up against the wall and all got a thorough pat down and nothing... NO KEYS!

Those car keys were lost for THREE HOURS. I tossed the whole house. I was crushed. I cried a little and then finally I had no craving for those cookies.

Then like magic the my keys were just siting there on the bookshelf. WHERE THEY ALWAYS ARE! With in two minutes I found the extra set laying by the printer...

Well played God!

It reminded me of the first time I was going to loose my Virginity. I did not know if it was the right thing to do. As we climbed the stairs to my sister attic I had a little conversation with God. I told him if this is not meant to be please do not let it happen!

So there we were and no matter how hard he tried he just could NOT DO IT! He could not get IT to work! At one point he screamed at IT "PLEASE WORK! WE HAVE A VIRGIN HERE!!! PLEASE!" But no, IT was not going to work. He left in shame.

For days he went on and on about how that had NEVER happen before. His embarrassment made him weird and we broke up weeks later.

Bravo God! Saved my virginity and permanently trampled this guys self confidence in one fell swoop.

I have never prayed before sex again.
