Among other things...

"Whenever someone finds in the Bible that life is easy, let me know"~Beth Moore.

Today started out get and ended sourly. My family and I had a great time at the Rangers game and they won 9-8. The last inning was wonderful and breath taking all at the same time. Then as we were talking out, one of our friends got his bag stuck up in the tree. I tried to get in down by jumping up and down but nothing happened.

Then I tried hoisting a girl up-failed attempt. So the third time was a real kicker. I realized that there were FIRE ANTS where I was standing and I had sandals on. What my luck. I immediantly jumped into action, poured ice water on both legs/feet, took medicine to stop the reaction, and then rubbed on Benedryl. Glad I packed that Benedryl.

After that, we came home and I took 2.5 teaspoons of Benedryl-liquid. Then I opened presents. Lots of stuff came for my new apartment in the fall and gift cards were a great bonus. Then I had cake and DID NOT get sung to. So when I have my birthday dinner on Sunday, the birthday song will be sung.

Now I have a confession to make: I do not like change and the effects of it. Here is the situation. When I recieve something new and do not like it, I tend to just speak and not worry about people's feelings, like I should. In all of most other instances, I think before I speak, but in a new situation, I do not. Case in point-when I recieved a few things that I was NOT crazy about tonight-I just said it and did not wait until a more appropriate time.

>>>>>> The lesson learned here-THINK before you SPEAK & PICK the appropriate time to voice opinions. Opinions DO MATTER, but remember to pick the best time to voice them.

NOW onto the apology: I will need to apologize to my MOM for not thinking before speaking in the morning. There are times when I do not even realize I am doing it until I see someone's reaction and then I get it.

There are times when someone hurts another and all it takes is an "I'm Sorry" and really mean it!!!

This birthday will be a birthday to remember with the red, hot fire ants and cool Ranger game.

Have a great weekend!!!

Lovely Tuesday...

Its Tuesday and I am up at 12:45am. WHY you ask? Short story is that my family and I were planning a vacation, got all excited, and were up late. I NEED a vacation very badly! The dates are set, now we are just looking into places and prices.

VBS is going great!!! The morning session is interesting. Seven boys and three girls today. The evening session is more low-key and easier (I think). I really love all my kiddos SO MUCH!!! By the end of the day though, I love my shower and clean clothes since the Texas heat gets to me.

Now to my confession-I have never really said that "God put something in my path" until now. I love working with kids, granted. But I also love the preschool and special needs ages. They are like sponges and so sweet. I truly believe that I am doing what God wants me to do.

In other news, Texas is hot and humid right now, go figure. College course is HARD but okay and I am allowing myself to have LOTS of fun this week!

Have a lovely Tuesday!!!
