Same old

Same old stuff, each year. I am beginning to hate Headstart....too much paperwork and redtape. You'd think we'd have the same set of rules as school...well, we do...but we have more than they do too. It's just not right.

I have to go home and get ready for meeting tonight. I'm riding with pastors to a Women's Aglow meeting...guys are invited tonight too...which is why Pastor's going. I hope I'm feeling better by then. Knowing my luck, there's a bunch of others going in the van and I'll get stuck all the way in the back...it'll be hot today...good thing I don't normally get carsick.

I might end up going on a blind date. I'm not sure yet. My boss here at the library says to me today that someone had approached him to see if I'd want to be fixed uip with her brother and what did I think. What am I supposed to say??? "No, I've decided to be content as a nun for the rest of my life." [nothing against nuns, I just don't want to be one.] SO I said, "I wouldn't be opposed to meeting him". Goodness, doesn't that sound stuffy?!?!?!?

Don't worry Captain - still gonna dance with ya at the X-mas party!!! ;-)

ok. gotta go.

OK, from a guys point of view, your response is great. Why? YOU DIDN'T SAY NO! That's all that matters with most guys. After all, you don't even know him. I hardly think he would be offended by your response. I've yet to see a lady get overly excited about meeting a guy that she doesn't know anything about. (OK, so maybe movie stars don't count.) Hope it all goes well.

Thanks for stopping by my blog during the meet and greet.

And have fun on your blind date. I went on one recently. We went to a movie so I didn't have to talk to him much if I didn't want to. Take mints just in case your date has stinky breath too.

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?????

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...

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...
