FingerLakes

For the past 3 weeks, I've had to work the FingerLakes Schedule...even one week of this knocks my sleep schedule for a lopp...three weeks absolutely wrought havoc. This is why I haven't posted for a week..I've been basically sleeping in my free time.

Well, I did read a Trek Trilogy. Crucible. McCoy's story of how his trip through the Guardian of forever was better than Spock's and Kirk's, in my opinion. {Kirk's story had too many alternate versions of himself---will the real Captain Kirk please step forward!}

But mostly I slept.

Yes, Kat, your hug helped :D Always does. I will admit that I am rather envious of you, and I hope that you can forgive me :) I had the strangest thing happen to me last night while at a friend's house. She had slipped into the bathroom, leaving me alone with her husband...and somehow we got on the subject of 'someday you'll understand when you have a family of your own." {Good thing he was too far away for me to hit!} And I told him that I doubted that would ever happen, but he remained hopeful for me. Even going so far as to say that he wouldn't trade the trials and tribulations of marriage and family for anything. This is the first married man I've EVER heard say that.

I also got some more one word descriptions of me from friends and family: ranging from special and creative to "crazychick". Amusing. My brother still insists that my name describes me. Maybe for him, it doesn't for me. Dork!!! :P

Such is life. Gearing up for another 40 hours...but at least I don't have to work the FingerLakes schedule this week - so far! May it please stay that way.

Also, my back no longer hurts bad enough to require darvocet. This is good. generic advil does the job well enough now, when I need it. Much thankful for this "little" miracle. Now if the deer will just stay outta my way!

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...
