Is it bad that as a kid I was totally uneasy about Mr. Rodgers? He gave me the willies. Him, and my high school drivers ed teacher.
Anywho, despite my childhood willies, it is a beautiful day in the neighborhood! Won’t you be my neighbor!
I got big things cookin, hopefully I can get them out of the oven with little difficulty.
The weekend was interesting. I need to work a little harder at balance. I spent so much of the weekend working that I know my kids were a bit bored, probably a lot bored. So, I know I am gonna have to find a better way to walk the line. Even still we played alot of memory (the my little pony version) and got a game of Trouble in. I think I want to go get us a full size version of Connect Four, I’m too annoyed by the tiny pieces of the travel version.
Despite that we got alot of things done around the house although the christmas tree is still up, we got a ton of laundry sorted and folded and I actually put it away, if you knew me ,like IRL ,you wuld know this is major, I don’t pout laundry away. But my husband likes it when the laundry comes out of drawers and not baskets.
I think hes been conspiring with my mother.
Anywho. We did alot of that - we also cleaned Cammys play room which also means we need to donate soem toys, hopfully if I got to ImagingUSA next week Cammy and I can do a purge of toys Bri won’t play with and get an inventory of needed batteries and give away alot of stuff.
I should be on reality TV for a HGTV show, maybe someone will organize all this mess for me.
We also went to church this weekend, which is something I have missed terribly in the last year, I love my home church, its just with the construction and a few quibbles about doctrine we’ve not been attending regularly (its roughly an hour drive, on a good trip.) and the search to find the right fit for us has been, difficult. But I do not plan to give up, and I think we have decided on a few of the things that are very important to us as individuals and what we want to expose or girls to. Pastor Clark, you could just fix a few of my major my issues by building a branch in the city, KTHX!
I miss belonging to an actual church family. Which is another down side to Shalom, the SHEER SIZE of it. I’m down for a few hundred people to worship with, but Shalom, its a mega church no getting around it.
There are air traffic control wands used to direct traffic.
So its bigger than I’d like. For Jerry I think he’s okay with going to church and learning and goin home. Its not the community thing it is for me. I like to know the poeple I worship with and know whats goin on with them and talk and be friends during the week and not just as a fly by on Sunday. Which is why the larger church experience is so, not me.
In an ideal world my Grandmothers church would still be located on Union and Enright and I would still attend there and Pastor Thomas would still be my pastor. But that is just wishful reminiscing.
Anywho beyond our church trails this week we are both, Jerry and I brimming with ideas and possibilities! So keep reading we’ll hopefully get Jerry back to writing in his blog one day too.
, so when I saw this wall it reminded me of all the things you want to do when you hang out, “Eat, Drink, Be happy.” Should be a life motto you think?
