7 Quick Takes Friday

-
On Sunday friends of ours had a small surprise birthday party for their mom, who was surprised. Everyone had a nice time and Amanda and I got to hang out with our friends and we got to see two friends that he haven't seen in a little while as well.
Besides going to a party we got a lot of wind and rain on Sunday as well. A couple places got tornadoes as well. One town/city in my state got hit pretty hard by a tornado, so please say a prayer for them as they start rebuilding everything. Don't forget to pray for everyone in the Philippines who was affected by the typhoon that it not to long a go.
I apologies if my 2nd quick take was a little bit on the depressing side. Though this might not be considered depressing for some people, but tomorrow is the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who!!! and my mother, sisters and myself won't be able to watch it then because we have a million things to do that day. But we will watch it! When we do watch it I shall try to post my thoughts on it as soon as I possibly can, but I have to remember that I said that ;)

Tomorrow fellow blogger Anne-girl is having a writ-athon over on her blog Scribblings of My Pen and Tappings of My Keyboard. If you are interested in joining those who will be doing it with her you can follow the link and read what she wrote about it here :) I am going to see if I can join in since I have a lot of running around to do. But we shall see...
Since we are on the subject of writing I can't decide if I want to change the name of the story that I am doing for NaNoWriMo again or not. Like I usually say, we shall see ;) Because the story I'm doing is a modern/slightly medieval story I want to make a couple covers with modern/medieval feels to them but I haven't found anything so far. In the event that I don't find pictures that I like to use I might have to go take pictures to use. Once I actually make a cover or two I'll post them here for you to see.
Though I didn't take this picture *points to the picture* I want to do something like this for one of the pictures after my wedding if I get married. It would also be fun to take the picture as well.


Even though Thanksgiving is next week I saw this fun adorable edible turkey idea on Pinterest :) Next year I want to do something like this :)

The Other Side of Modesty

When we hear the word modesty, the first thing that comes to mind is clothing that covers everything or the majority of your body. Dressing modestly is something I have grown up with and have been around my entire life. And it can be considered a "hot topic" regarding what girls and women wear. Especially when it comes to places like schools and the workplace. But most people don't realize that modesty isn't just about what you wear; it is also about how you act around others and toward yourself.  Photo by Amanda Canas on Unsplash I am talking about this because I read an article on my Facebook feed the other day about a father who posted a picture with his two daughters in their homecoming dresses. And it was talking about his response to the people commenting on the style of the dresses. I don't remember the article's name, but I do know that it mentioned "girls to dress, so they don't distract boys," as well as saying that they are "aski...

--- 1 --- The other day I was feeling a bit bored so I made a couple covers for the story that I started working on. --- 2 --- A couple of weeks ago I was looking up pictures of the minons from "Despicable Me", don't remember why, but while I was scrolling down the page I came across this minion picture: --- 3 --- I found this on Pinterest a while back... --- 4 --- On Sunday we had to shovel snow off the driveway. It was really cold out and it made my stomach kind of hurt a little bit afterwards. The only bright side, besides being able to come inside and warm up, was getting hot chocolate. --- 5 --- Since I couldn't think of anything else to write for this one I decided to share the first couple sentences of what I have written so far of my story let me know how you like it :) Standing under the only low-lit street lamp Xiomara looked both ways at the quiet street lit only by the light of the street lamps. Sighing to herself...
