Mission Impossible

This was a CRAZY weekend. There was so much going on around here. I had two 6 year olds jacked up like Tasmanian Devils. I mean literally, running, and spinning, and yelling, and laughing, and screaming, and did I mention running. My two oldest guys had their homecoming football game, and homecoming dance. They of course were going with different friends, in different directions. My 6th grader had a Hockey game, then a birthday party on the other side of town. And to top it all off it was the weekend of my little ones, Halloween Carnival at school. My husband was out of town, but did get home to help with the late night pick ups Saturday night, thank goodness.

I am not sure how, but it really didn't register in my brain, that Saturday- in particular-- was going to be mission impossible. I am only one person, I can only drive one car at a time, and it didn't occur to me that I couldn't be in three places at once. Until Saturday morning, around 7am, I was enjoying my coffee, and starting to think about my day.....and BAM it hit me---- how the heck am I supposed to do this?? Fortunately, I am a problem solver, it is what I do, LOL, I am only good at it because I get so much practice. It all worked out. Everyone got to where they were going. Everyone had fun. Everyone came home safe. The end. A Victory for Moms everywhere!

The Sky is Blue

I want to thank all of you who lift my family up in prayer. I thank all of you who give us encouragement. I try really hard to see the cup 1/2 full, and most days I do. I was feeling a little down last night, but today is a new day. Blue skies remind me of how much I am loved. Have an awesome day friends. And.....on a side note.... Go Viewpoint Patriots!!! We are in the playoffs! Wooo Hoooooo!

Networking can be expensive!

I went to a cool women's networking meeting the other night. It was with an organization called Heartlink . It was at some one's house. An awesome dinner was served. Tables set, lovely hospitality, and about 20 very interesting women were there. We each got 3 minutes to introduce ourselves and tell a bit about our business's. Most of the women knew each other already. Many of the women present had business's that sell through direct marketing. Most of the big ones were represented, and a few new ones I had never heard of but found interesting. There were also women with other business's like insurance, legal services, printing, etc... It is great to meet like minded people, and I can definitely see the benefits of attending regularly. The bad part however, is it leaves you wanting to go shopping! All of a sudden, I MUST have the new mango cutter from Pampered Chef, and I am yearning to freshen up my candles, and I NEED a hole new wardrobe from CABi . ...

Believing isn't so hard

Why do I believe what I can't see? That is a valid question. I get it from well intentioned people just trying to understand our differences I guess. I'll try to answer as best as I can. The college years especially, are a time of exploration. We think in a less inhibited way. We behave in a less inhibited way. We ponder, and process, and get emotional about issues we think are important. It is definitely an important step in the process of maturing. I too, explored, pondered, got emotional, and was uninhibited. I remember especially being passionate about the right to a woman's choice. I never took the idea of abortion lightly. I held the hands of a few friends along the way, as they made that very difficult choice. I praise God that I was never faced with that decision, I am not sure what I would have done at that stage of my life. I would like to think I would have chosen life, but I can't say for sure. I don't believe that ab...
