HI GALS ~
Waiting for the game to start. Angie is off to Home Depot to buy paint and a Ryobi i-pod deck for her new i-pod. She likes the idea of having a battery that can run her screw gun and her new i-pod
Sometimes it scares me she can do "man" stuff....changed the handle in the toilet and put up new shelves in her loft while I was gone last week. If I didn't vacuum so well she might not need me
We went to church last night so this morning we went out to Carlsbad at 6:30 and walked 3.5 miles of the coast/beach in an hour then had breakfast at a street cafe. Sat outside in the patio since we had the dogs. A group of men bicyclist gave them all kinds of attention....they want to go back
We shared one each of a ham/egg and cheese and tomato/basil cream cheese croissant with coffee/tea.
The family party went well. I stayed away from the kielbasa after the first sandwich but snuck a bratwurst. High calorie potato salad, macaroni salad, chips and dip didn't help but I kept my portions reasonably in check....OK...not as much as the past
In the past I would have been eating the kielbasa and bratwurst like finger food
SCOOTER ~ COKE 0....funny...funny girl....on Super Bowl?....funny
I am so proud of you for your part in the vision of your church! Must be an awesome place with you and DH participating. We are very blessed to have a Saturday night service. We started it about 15 years ago on a trial basis. We usually have around 50 people. Angie and I take advantage of it when we can. We usually go to 8am Sunday service unless she has bells on Saturday or 10:30 Sun. It is nice to hit the Saturday one though then go to dinner afterwards, take it easy Sunday morning or take advantage of good walking/coffee weather
We have asked Pastor if he would like to have one month in the summer off of Saturday nights and he says "No way"...we have too many that come. Still going strong at 70!
BEV ~ Continued prayers for Dennis.
good luck in the new/again friendship. I hope all works out well for you.
KELLI ~ Prayers that you find the church that God wants for you and your family. When I went through a divorce many years ago I considered leaving my church....it was hard to see my ex there with my kids, in a different pew, on "her" week-ends, anyway I explored a bit but came back...it was and always will be home....26 years now. I hope you find your "home" Thanks, this thread was started before I came on board here in 2002. Wilma, "Aunt" Sue and I are still kickin' here after these last 7 years. To be honest I don't remember who started it, I just keep it going with
EVERYONE'S HELP! and our good Lord's handiwork
KATHY ~ My daughter graduated college from a Nazarene church here in southern California. Prayers for the Lord's will to be answered in your journey with the foster care/adoptions. I don't want to make light of "mom" but dear "mom" is just a word. You are MOM to those kids. They can't replace what you give them with anyone else but you. I know it doesn't quite compare but my kids have a mom and a step-mom. Now my wife never wanted or intended for my kids to call her mom, they have a mom....a good one too...my wife has a daughter...never have I been called dad by her, or do I want to...she has a dad....however there are things and relationships that Angie has with my children after 14 years that my ex-wife doesn't. They "go to" her with issues and concerns that they would never go to their mom with. They do things with her that they would never do with their mom....and they get along fine with their mom....for the most part
I know it isn't the same...just wanted to say "MOM" is in your
and that is what counts the most
ROSEBUD ~Ouch for all that
I really hate to mention it is in the 70's here today
But then I don't have any banana muffins baking in the oven making the house smell wonderful
Continued prayers for bil and sil and your leg
RONNI ~Good luck tomorrow at Mayo
Awesome job on that NSV at McDonald's
HA! I don't move too much furniture these days
Just a bed and dresser in knucklehead's old room....but I can texture drywall like no tomorrow!
BARGOO ~How's the "elder-ing" going so far?
DONNA ~ Looking forward to more Jonathon stories.
SANDY ~ My nephew, who I raised, just finishe NAVY Boot Camp a few months ago. He is still in Great Lakes with his school. Good luck to your daughter.
