Well, most of the time, with exceptions, I will be posting about things I'm thankful for and why. There will be deviations of course. Aren't there exceptions to every rule? Of course! So, I'll have deviations to do a particular theme or I will be thankful for something and it will carry over into more than one post, or I'll just post something random because I'm excited about it. Blogs are for fun right? Right. So, since blogs are supposed to be fun, I'll write on other things other than thankfulness sometimes. All posts will end with a Bible verse in the NKJV.

Tough Cookies!

If you spend a lot of time around me, you've heard me say this. Someone's griping or complaining, and I just say "Tough cookies!" Basically I mean, too bad, get over it, cry me a river, etc... That is the context I mean it in, not the "He's a tough cookie" context. :) According to Urban Dictionary it is, "A way of displaying your sympathy in a young hip manor." You could also say, tough luck. Most people wouldn't say this if they really were sorry for you, most of the time it's used in a snarky, sarcastic way.
This was a really short post, but that's all the explaining this phrase needs. :) So, I hope you enjoyed! I sure did enjoy writing it! It's fun to surf around and find out all this interesting stuff.

Hosea 11:8 “How can I give you up, Ephraim? How can I hand you over, Israel? How can I make you like Admah? How can I set you like Zeboiim? My heart churns within me; my sympathy is stirred.
