I had a cool title...

But I forgot what it was...I do that sometimes...{{{grinning in chagrin}}}

So - I found out something I did Tuesday night at the meeting that had my Pastor laughing...apparently it was so funny it will provide much laughter in the future for when he's down. I guess when I was called up for prayer...you know how the speaker is suppose to have your attention when that happens...well, I looked over at my group right before he got started, grinning like a fool, and the preacher moved my head with his hands to face him. I don't even remember what I was thinking when I looked over there...I must have heard their laughter or something [we were a very giggly group that night and by that time we were reaching bellylaughter]. It highly amused Pastor. What's even funnier, Pastor has a different interpretation of the look I gave than Mrs Pastor...

I'm not going to be doing Kids Church anymore. the old teacher is going to come back and do it again [she had a baby]. I of course have mixed feelings about this. Seems like, you know, I just got it figured out that this is where God wants me even though I'm the most unlikeliest candidate for kids ministry...and they yank me. BUT - I was told by Mrs Pastor that she can see me being used there again in the future...as a backup for Min or if Deb looses her eyesight...but I'm not allowed to tell that to anyone and am smart enough to figure that's another "test"...so I can't even talk to my friend/mentor about it...I can only tell you guys about it...at least I think I can...don't no-one tell on me! :) I would hate to see Deb lose her eyesight, but unless God does a miracle...she is going to. And from what she's shared with me, along with what Mrs. Pastor shared...it's going to break her heart if that happens cuz she does a lot with the kids too.

Well...I have a date Saturday. we're going to meet at his sisters house, which should be safe enough since it's right across from the police office. Then we're going up and around the block to a local restaurant - like an idiot I picked the most expensive one around - can't help it...I love the food there...will have to double check and see if we're going dutch. I'm not highly opptimistic about it...for several reasons I can't share. I did talk with his sister a good bit, and there's no pressure if it doesn't "click". I saw a picture of him, and the best I could say was "he looks nice" which was a lie cuz he looked angry in the pic...eyebrows all lowered...I'm hoping it was a bad pic. At the very least I will have gotten to meet a new person and a chance to have some of that hot artichoke dip that I love at the restaurant [aren't I terrible?!?!]

ok. Ending. Talk to me peoples...

I love that line: "grinning in chagrin." Sounds like good poetry to me. ;)

Rob - - - I'm a poet and I know it
though my verses seldom show it
Mostly I can't rhyme
Because I don't take the time
But once in a while
I come up with something and get a smile.

:D

Ponderisms

This comes from an email from one of my many sisters. Some are just toooo funny!!! PONDERISMS 1.) I used to eat a lot of natural foods until I learned that most people die of natural causes. 2.) Gardening Rule: When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant. 3.) The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a replacement. 4.) Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway. 5.) There are two kinds of pedestrians: the quick and the dead. 6.) Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing. 7.) Health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die. 8.) The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth. 9.) Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs. 10.) Have you noticed since everyone has a ca...

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 m...
