Top Tens - Autumn 2014

[I'm confused now when summer officially ended...? I'm also adding my top ten material wish list.]

Ten Things I Love/Appreciate

1. Love tight, long, bear-like hugs.
2. Appreciating exercise - not my usual crazy, bone-tiring ones... just active.
3. Home-cooked meals, thanks :-)
4. My mentor and her husband staying in my church for another year, at least.
5. Appreciating my spiritual peace. It was broadened then shaken last month, but I think despite myself still trying to understand my newer experiences, I am quite peaceful, accepting all with gladness because I listen, discern, believe and trust.
6. I'm still on "pause" spiritually, yet it is alright.
7. My female friends. And bestie with family.
8. Appreciating God's provisions of people helping to handle some serious issues.
9. Appreciating knowledge and understanding of different levels of battles and more about Jesus.
10. God's cover, answers, protection, armour, blessings, lessons, lovingkindness, authority.


Ten Things I Miss/Dislike

1. Missing tight, long, bear-like hugs.
2. My orchid plants died.
3. Too distracted to continue learning to play guitar, or to swim, or anything.
4. Dislike anxiety (physical can't sleep; mental can't stop thinking), when there was/is no need to worry.
5. Still missing two-hours of head-to-toe deep tissue or sports massage with scented oils.
6. Dislike dealing with serious issue, and that I cannot talk about it.
7. Dislike another issue I can talk about, but would prefer to handle quietly first.
8. Dislike being single, at the moment. But getting to know is nowadays too time consuming.
9. Miss travelling, going away to recharge (flight reaction for sure!)
10. That this post feels uninspired, skirting around topics I really want to discuss.... :-((



Ten Wishes/Prayers
1. For God's armour to always/daily cover me and family and friends, hedge of protection with the blood of Jesus (not literal for those who don't understand!).
2. To understand and be better equipped, about all I am learning now about the Holy Spirit and spiritual warfare.
3. For my family to each have a personal relationship with Christ.
4. To win. Overcome. Conquer. Lead. In Jesus name.
5. To start playing guitar again, hopefully I haven't forgotten too much. 
6. For my (and friends') relationship and friendships to be encouraging, strengthening, positive and protected.
7. That opportunities keeps coming and presenting itself; and that I respond rightly/appropriately, by taking them on, or saying no.
8. To learn how to plan and shop for food/groceries weekly, so I can be a better cook.
9. For my ankle to be healed strong, my core/stomach muscles to be strong, and my posture to improve.
10. For my (ad)ventures to be successful.


Ten Material Wish List ;-)
1. There's a property (properties!) in France I am looking at to buy. Next to the beach, away from Paris but a direct TGV train (approx 470kms away), behind it an old castle (what's left of it), 300 metres from the beach, walking distance from the main hubs so infrastructure/facilities are available. If I turn the attic into a room with balcony, I'm pretty sure it will have more than a little view of the sea. I can make myself afford the villa. I just don't know how i'll maintain it! This or any French property purchase will definitely be for keeps! <3
2. A tablet or an ipad. To use for video/photo processing and editing. I'm very tactile, I'd prefer to use my fingers than a mouse to do things.
3. If not above, a dual-sim phablet/phoblet/foblet(?).... you know which one I'm talking about.
4. More income-generating investments, so I can have my own place at home and my second home (see above, hahahah).
5. Folding hula hoops of various sizes. I used to be good at twirling them, good for core exercise.
6. Portable pole, yes for dancing and rotation/strength work. If you're imagining something close to porn or prostitution get your mind off the gutter. I found out how good an exercise routine it is in 2005.
7. My own potted herbs and vegetable garden.
8. Canon DSLR lenses, tripod, and equipment for lighting and studio photography.
9. A human/robot caddy to carry and take care of equipment above while I'm in my artistic zone ;-).
10. A moped.
11. It's almost winter! Thigh-high boots!!! <3 :-)
12. Long or oversized, thick, grandparents-style cardigan. Those ones that feel like I am getting hugged! <3 :-)
