Wow, was it hard to get up in the morning. I felt so sluggish and then again, I was up late, as I couldn't get to sleep due to having all the sugar in my system. After getting dressed and getting ready for work, I immediately took the box of the remaining paczkis out to my car so that I could get rid of them at the office or my friend's house.
I didn't eat breakfast, as I wasn't hungry at all. I know that I should have eating something, but I think it was the after affects of the all the sugar in my system. I only had a cup of dandelion Root tea until I had large salad of mixed greens and radishes with balsamic vinaigrette. I guess I should start cutting down how much I am eating, as I get closer and closer to my first day for my water fast.
I think I will try to eat only one meal on Saturday so it will be easier on my stomach to start a Water fast on Sunday.
I can't believe how quickly March 9th is getting. WATER FAST time! I have to say that I am a bit excited about it because I plan on reading my Bible everyday and really work toward re-connecting with the Lord during this time. I really need it. I think it will be a perfect time to pray for my father (as he is still in the hospital) and my mother's salvation, as well as for a couple of my friends. I have really fallen off the wagon when it comes to praying for those that I love. I guess since my Dad is in the hospital, it has really made me realize that his soul is in jeopardy. I know it is his choice, but I really want to see him in Heaven one day when the day comes. Actually I don't want to think about him dying, as I am not ready to lose him, but I realize too, it isn't my choice either.
I did find a little devotional for the Lenten Season. You are going to laugh. It is more for children, but I thought it would be perfect for me, since I want something very simple and engaging. It is called Seek God for the City 2011.
I found it here:

I thought it was great, so I printed it out so that I way I cold have in on hand.
I probably should work at cleaning out my fridge before Sunday, so that I won't have anything that will tempt me, other then water. I know that fasting isn't always easy, and even if I fail at starting on Sunday, I have until Wednesday, March 9th to get it right. I will have to check with the Water fasting forum to see how many people with be water fasting as well for Lent. Not everyone keeps their fasting journey in a blog like I do. I rather like blogging my experiences, but I really miss the interaction that a person gets in a forum. I just had a couple bad experiences in a forum that I am a bit leery about posting. I guess it was a lesson learned to keep a lot of stuff to one's self otherwise, it will be open for people's comments, which might not always be good. I do miss getting feedback regarding my blog, but I don't get too many comments, which I wonder if that is a good thing or a bad thing. LOL
Well one things is that I am still writing everyday and that is great. It is so much a habit that I something wonder what what I might write the next day, before it gets here. LOL
I have been trying to prime myself for the Water fast, when it comes to reading my Bible and praying, but I haven't had much success on it quite yet. I have been praying a bit, but I hope it picks more as the Lenten season goes on.
Tomorrow is another day closer to the Ash Wednesday!
