Too Soon

"I spoke too soon"

Well....sort of.

Here's a brief rundown of my first 'drop off run' - u know, taking the kids home.

I get all the kids on the bus, knowing that one girl needs to go to daycare, I automatically head for the one she went to last year...as I pull up, she says, "I don't go there anymore...I go to the new daycare..." Uh-oh. Now, this little girls a little more mature than the rest, so I believe her. I tried calling the other driver on the handheld radio to see if he was still at the center...no answer....tried calling the boss...no answer...I went back to the Center...no one could see the bus becuase of the ambulance, so no one could come out. So I cart the girl around the entire hour long route.........at the first stop, I sent a message through the mother to the Center....and then there was a bee on the bus!!!! I killed it, superhero that I am. One girl wants to "swing from the chandleirs"...if the bus had them. Oh my. Finally get back to center and figure out where the first little girl was supposed to go. Then I went and had donuts for lunch. And this was just the first day!!!!! We have so gotten started on the right foot, haven't we????

can anyone hear me go "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!"??????

Poor Ciera. I see the issues are continueing. A guess a new blog doesn't spell the end of the troubles at your church--and this new job on top of all that. Eeeek!

Michele sent me to calm you down. Ha-ha, not really. You're in charge of that. :-)

Yeah - well, things are supposed to be getting straightened out at church, you know, issues being confronted and all that. I just think we ought to make sure we have the whole story before we go correcting people. Yeah I was wrong for disrespecting Chief, but he read into my words more than what was there!!! Oh well. It'll all come out someday.

Kenju - yeah, my lunch was a bad one......I even had a big coffee too......that might explain the shaking!

Yeah - Fluke - those letters are a pain. I might turn them off - my brother gets hit with more spam than I do!

Me again! You're trying to avoid me by only putting in part of your address, Ciera. Tsk-tsk-tsk. I found you anyway.

Michele sent me to find you!

Types of Friends

The other night, the friend that I watch tv and movies with was sharing something she had learned from a MOPS meeting. About the two different types of friends. Since that discussion, I've realized that there are at least 2 more types of friends and goofball that I am, I thought I'd share it all with you! Don't you feel lucky and special? :) 1. Mushroom Friends : These friends spring up over night and are in our lives just for a season. Kind of like the friends I made in school. The season is way over as I didn't even get Christmas cards from them this year [yes, I sent them cards]. 2. Oak Tree Friends : These friendships develop slowly, starting out small and laying down deep root systems. They last forever no matter how far apart the friends grow; time, distance, oceans and death cannot break the bond of friendship. They are the kind that years after being out of communication, if they heard you were in trouble {death in family, illness, etc...} they would drop stuff

A Situation

Ok. I need to think out loud here for a bit while I wait on email. I have a situation going on that could become tough. A bit of background: About 2 years ago, a single man started coming to my church and showed an interest in me. It lasted about a month and a half, with him giving me mixed signals all the time...since I have been praying for a husband for a while now, at the time, it seemed like my prayers were being answered despite the confusion. It all came down one night about midnight in his parking lot and I haven't talked to him since. He only stayed around for another 7-8 months, and those were very hard months. He lied to me and mislead me, often. Like it was second nature for him. It was made even more traumatic by a discovery of mine on a website shortly after he left the area. In September 2005, I had a blind date that was far from fruitful. My singleness and desire to be married is known to all in church, and so... To the present: Yes, another single man has walked in

My Happy Face

There is something wrong in this world when they steal the magnetic smiley face off the back of your car. Which someone has done. But, I only rolled my eyes heavenward and said, "Whatever!" Must be the neighborhood kids were bored or something.
