Field Trip

One of the things that I love about my job is field trips...and not because of any extra money. First of all, it's always fun to take the kids to different places. Second of all---when it's to the library...I get to go online earlier in the day. That's where we went this morning.

Not sure what's going on at church tonight. Thursday's are supposed to be prayer meeting night...the only time allowed for the deposed intercessory team to pray...which totally sucks. I mean, how can you PRAY for your pastors when they're sitting right there? It can be a little awkward sometimes. But it said in the bulletin something about video's being shown for the next three nights. Oookay...just how I want to spend my evenings! NOT!

They've switched busses on me, I'm now driving Ed's bus and he has the spare bus --- apparently they've finally decided that 'hey, this bus can quit anytime anywhere so it's not safe to drive'---have they been listening to me?!?!?! And still...my first thought is..."OMG I'm driving the dorky looking bus." Sorry, but that was my first thought.

Hoping to go up to Cliff's this weekend. I also hope Mom remembered to tell him we're coming.

Ok...gotta go check email. :)

Ciera, Mom didn't have to tell me. She told Dawn, who then told me. the other night, Mom called just to tell me, but it was too late, because Dawn had already told me. Come on, give my wonderful wife some credit. On another note though, I can't wait for you to get here. It's been too long.

OK OK, enough mushy sibling stuff. You know, I've never thought of that start it in neutral trick. I might have to try that sometime.

Hearing you talk about your bus driving makes me think you would have been great in the Sandra Bullock role in 'Speed', where she had to drive that bus with a bomb!

My Brother's Question and Answer Segment

As you all know from yesterday's post and comments, my brother slammed me on a few of my survey answers. I've left his questions/comments in black and my answers in blue. Letter: Q Now, I wonder why you would like the letter Q. I wonder what Jean-Luc REALLY thinks about that? Uhm---it's the only Star Trek related letter. :P Any comment Jean-Luc?? Body Part on Opposite sex: smile Age you wanna lose your Virginity: How old am I now? LOL Can these two answers really correspond? It sounds to me like you might be lying in one of these. What???? Sex doesn't start with a smile? Besides....you should see his smile. Strawberry or Watermelon: watermelon What! Watermelon! You...You... TRAITOR! :P Kiss or Hug: both Now, this answer seems to correspond well with both your answers in the above mentioned two questions. And your point is? Rap or Punk: rap You really like rap? Uhm...I think TobyMac counts as rap and I like a few of his songs. I also like hiphop. Wanna see me dance with ...

Weekenders!!!

It's that time again. For Michele's weekend Meet-n-Greet. Some frown, but others gleefully play. Here's a question for all who visit here, whether on your own or from Michele's: Last night during a prayer meeting, I had a memory flash through my mind. More like the shadow of the memory. I was five years old or younger and I was begging my father for a peanut butter cake. I really wanted one, and even though I was interupting the adult conversation and probably being a regular brat...my Dad quit what he was doing to search for a recipe for a peanut butter cake...uhm, I don't think he ever found one so he made me a chocolate one with peanut butter frosting. This is probably the best memory I have of my father. So - what is your favorite childhood memory?????

Shock and Awe

It is a strange thing. How someone can say, "I'm sorry, please forgive me" and still manage to correct you all at once...it is truly amazing to me. I was shocked that this person actually admitted to being wrong, and at the same time, I was ashamed for wanting it. But it got me to thinking. About Repentance and Forgiveness...how once they have happened...there is healing and restoration. I haven't completely researched it yet, but the verses I've peaked at in James make me think I'm not far off. I wonder, just as one person sinning can spoil others...can one person repenting turn others to repentance? Hmm.... Of course, as in any relationship situation...it helps to know the whole story. Why do we do that, I wonder? Close up and not share what is going on, I mean. I know that sometimes, there are things that hurt too deep to share right away. It is frustrating. Thanksgiving looks to be a dismal day so far. I'm not about ready to invite myself to any...
