check, please!

Someone told me recently that I'm not really all that outgoing. I'm unsure whether that should be taken as an offense or a compliment. I think I'm borderline. I can be extroverted when I want to be, but I don't like to do it very often. You don't have to be outgoing to make great relationships. I think I'll take it as a compliment. I mean, hey, it just means I'm not obnoxious! Ha!

I sure hate it when people say, "Never mind!" I mean why did they ask you something in the first place? Just to check and see if you're listening? Just to see if you'll actually do whatever it is they had in mind? Sometimes I say "never mind" to people...just to get a laugh. I see how that really sucks now after having it done to me. I'm going to think twice before I do that to someone else again. I want my words to count for something. I don't want to be talking just to add to the air quality.

Yup, it's going to be an interesting week. Hopefully, no flooding...but I wouldn't mind a nice rain storm. It makes for good reading!

rainy saturday

I'm kind of bored. I slept in. I want to go see the Hannah Montana movie. I just might.

1963

Oh what a night. Isn't that how the song goes? It's been a night. I didn't sleep well. Today I'm wondering how you can know when God is speaking to you. I believe He speaks to different people in different ways. But what if you hear wrong? Is it possible to not hear God...I mean, is it possible to not hear God is you are purposefully praying and seeking and listening for Him? I guess I just really don't understand. Does God confuse us on purpose? No, probably not. Wow. I don't get it.

another day, another dollar

It is another day, but I still have only one dollar. Sometimes I only type just what pops into my head at the moment. It's more fun that way. Keeps things fresh.

I'm about to go back to bed for the day. I'm feeling the kidney stone pain. Sadness. It's not comfortable.

I think I'll watch a movie. I forgot I was getting on the computer to do that anyway.

WCA Soccer Champs!

This photo was taken April 18. The Lady Wildcats dominated Grace 3-0 for the State championship! So proud of the girls! My daughter is standing in the back next to the girl with the long-sleeved black shirt under her uniform.

This photo was taken April 25 at the Tri-State Tournament. The Lady Wildcats played Grace again and won 3-1! They are not only the state champs, but the Tri-State champs! Awesome job by the Lady Wildcats! My daughter is kneeling and the third from the left.

Here is my daughter, Holly, with her Tri-State champ medal!

excited!

I'm so excited about what God is doing in my life! I'm so excited about what God is going to do in my life! I'm so excited about the place I'm at in my life! It's really an exciting time. It's been a good couple of weeks...learning, praying, talking, listening. Really good.

I'm not excited about cleaning my room or the kitchen today or folding laundry. I want to sew. All day. I want to get a mocha or vanilla caramel latte, put a movie on and just sew. I even have a new sewing machine I got for Christmas! I just got it out of the box last week. Still don't know how to use it yet. I've got to make time for that. Sewing is awesome.

I'm excited about getting a break from my kids playing sports. We'll have a break for a few weeks before they start back for the summer and fall.

I'm excited about spending more time with my friends. I'm going to start making more time for my friends.

I'm excited.

friends

I'm so thankful for honest, supportive friends. Friends who pray for you. Seriously. Friends who are honest with you. Friends who aren't afraid to be honest with you. Friends who aren't afraid to be themselves. Friends who encourage you to be your true self. Friends who will cry with you...or let you cry. Friends who will scream with you! Friends who will be happy with you!

I think have some friends like that in my life. I want to be a friend like that to other people.
