Hello Weekend...

Paxton: This is for you:


I know the answer to this........

Glad it is the weekend. It feels like the week was long but looking back it doesn't look like it. Don't know that that makes sense but....oh well!

We kind of had weird things happen today at school. It was a hard day emotionally. PLEASE remember kids, your actions today really DO catch up with you. For some, these re-actions happen sooner rather than later and the end result can be devastating. Usually, it's not the person in trouble that is the only 'sufferer' of the re-action. It's hard to stand back and see it happen.


This was the sky on the way home from work today.....magical. And here's another shot:

God does good work!

Humdrum Post

I woke up this morning thinking it was Friday....NO. I get to wake up tomorrow to Friday. The internet went down for a couple of hours this morning. I hate it when it does that. The day tends to drag when that happens. Whether we like it or not the darn school day is tied to a computer and when that isn't available...things are ugly. We made it through though.

Came home and did bookwork: checkbook reconciliation, paying bills, fun, fun, fun. I have 3 accounts to do and only one gave me fits so I consider it a success.

It is rainy outside and 32 degrees. This equals icy conditions. Kyle had a scare coming home with the icy roads. He was glad to get home in one piece. He got his pickup back today but it's not right so it has to go back tomorrow. Ugh!

Kind of a late post tonight and it's almost time for Grey's Anatomy so I am gonna get going. Didn't even have a picture to post.

WoW

Every time you listen with great attentiveness

to the voice that calls you the Beloved,

you will discover within yourself

a desire to hear that voice longer

and more deeply.

Wednesday Girls

It wasn't quite as cold outside today as it has been. Even tried to snow this morning. Too bad it passed on the idea as a whole...didn't do nearly enough of it. This morning on the way to work Jan's car decided it was tired. The alternator went out. The radio was going: "Now up, George Strait" waiting, waiting, waiting. Nothing. The headlights started going dimmer and dimmer. The car got tired. Thank goodness it wasn't too far from mom and dad's. Kyle to the rescue. He came in our car and then waited for Greg to come for the broken one. Our hero.

This was taken at Vangi's a week before Christmas at our last Wednesday meeting. It turned out pretty good of all of us I say. Tonight we were back in the groove, after Christmas vacation, and met at mom's. It's always a nice evening with these ladies.



Kyle's truck wasn't done today, much to his dismay. He did have a couple of meetings with potential clients so it wasn't all that bad. Plus he got to do a rescue this morning....the more I think about it, he had a pretty GOOD day!

Another Thought...

Just think...

You are here not by chance,

but by God's choosing.

His hand formed you

and made you the person you are.

He compares you to no one else---

you are one of a kind.

You lack nothing that His grace can't give you.

He has allowed you to be here at this time

in history to fulfill

His special purpse for this generation.
