Upcoming Blog Challenge - Inspire Us Tuesdays

Hey All!
 
I would like to try something on my blog that I haven't really done before. Having been inspired by my recent church retreat to insire other women, I have really wondered how I can go about doing that. I think the answer is: inspire women to inspire other women. And so on, and so forth! Well, I know many of you reading my blog have your own blogs and I know most all of you are women. So, I am looking for those of you who will participate with some upcoming link ups! These have not worked well in the past, but I am hoping God will move through us this time! The goal here is to spur questions and discussion that will help you find where your mentorship would fit in your church and in your life.
 
Every Tuesday, beginning next week, April 23rd, for the next 8 weeks, I will ask you to write a blog post answering a specific question. Then, I will ask you to link up to my blog, in an effort to inspire other women in their walk with God! I am calling it "Inspire Us Tuesdays!"
 
Here are the upcoming list of topics!
 
April 23 Witnessing to a Friend:Has God ever called you to witness to a friend? Were you were afraid?
 
April 30 The Womanly Influence: What woman has been your biggest influence of your Christian walk and how? OR, what woman do you turn to when you need guidance or Christian encouragement?
 
May 7 Women's Ministry: Tell us about your women's ministry team at your church. Do you have one?
 
May 14 Your Calling: What do you believe is your true calling in your church? Is there a ministry you would like to become a part of but haven't? Why or why not?
 
May 21 New Member: Tell us about joining your church and the beginning days of your time there. Was it easy or hard to get to know other women?
 
May 28 Church Conference: Tell us about a Christian conference you've attended that has moved you. If you haven't attended one, find one that you might like to attend and why.
 
May 28th Scripture Inspiration: What is your favorite verse when you need encouragement? Feel free to tell about a time when you used it. 
 
June 4th Strengths and Weaknesses: What are your strengths as a friend? What are you weaknesses? What about to people you've just met?

Why I am Pro Universal Healthcare and Changes to Our Healthcare System

Due to my recent proactivity with my credit and paying off debt, I decided to give the hospital a call where I was admitted about a month ago and ask about my bill. I wanted to make sure I didn't miss it in the mail and I wanted to get an idea of what I'd be paying for my stay. I get on the phone with the billing department and the woman is just as nice as can be, really. She was surprised I'd even called her, considering I didn't even have a bill yet. She told me she'd sent the bill over to my insurance to be approved and paid but they hadn't heard back yet. "Just out of curiosity," I asked, knowing I would be responsible for 20% of the final bill, "how much was it?" What I heard next shocked me.   "$61,000" she said.   I said, "$61,000? I was only in the hospital for a night and only on anti-biotics, you can't be serious! My daughter cost me less than a third of that to give birth to and I was in the hospital two nights!...

Some Changes...

We've been going through a bit of a transition at the Whitehead household the last month or so. I haven't really talked too much about it because I wasn't ready, to be honest. It's just a lot of change and I've been trying to figure it out in my head.   As of three weeks ago last Friday, I am no longer a full time work out of home employee.   I can't believe I just said that.   It's been the plan for several months now for me to go into real estate and it was always assumed I'd be doing that part time, while keeping my full time job. Plans kind of changed when Jason got his promotion. He'd always has a job that allowed him a lot of flexibility. In sales, especially after you've been in a position for a while, it just sort of happens that way. He could take Avery to daycare and pick her up, he could take her to doctor's appointments, he could even do chores around the house in the afternoon, while I was at work. I had some flexibi...

That "Thing" in That Basket Isn't a Baby, You Know That, Right?

I have had the most horrible case of writer's block lately! With that said, I saw this article on Babycenter and I just had to write something about it.   So, we've heard of the trend of eating the placenta after birth . We've heard of the trend of putting them in pill form to get the nutrients . But this? This to me, is just the craziest of them all.   As a group of beings on this planet, I've never seen any other mammal who evolves to get to a certain place, then de-evolves on purpose, to be more "natural." I am sure I am seriously about to put my foot in my mouth, I am sure there are (some) people out there that I might offend with my "closed-mindedness" on this topic. But this is just, well, ridiculous to me.   Basically, after the placenta comes out, instead of cutting the cord and detaching it from the baby, you leave the placenta on, they salt it to help with the decomp process, add rosemary (I am guessing for the smell?), then p...
