I realized yesterday...

that I haven't blogged in almost 2 weeks and not because I'm busy trying to make my next entry perfect either. Honestly, I simply haven't had 5 free minutes in practically 2 weeks. I can't believe I'm saying that and I so desperately want to be able to say "kidding" or even just know that it's a lie in my head but that is the complete truth.

Here's my fave posting format to let you know what all is going on w/me...

*VBS is in less than 4 weeks. Yes, I am freaking out.
*Drama ministry w/the kids is going well-they love to talk but are making improvements.
*Sunday School is better-they love to talk as well but my material is good.
*Wednesday nights are still out of hand (at church regarding teachers) but that is coming together to be fixed soon.
*I attended my first funeral in Paris last week. Such a sad occasion but such a strong family.
*I've ministered to most everybody at work in some way in the past couple weeks. They need Jesus!
*I attended my first training for commercial insurance in Tyler last week. What a trip but it was pretty fun & I passed my test.
*Mom flies in this weekend-I'm excited to see her. It's always good to have a piece of home close by.
*My Grandmother is not doing well (hence, my mom flying in) so I'm a little worried about her. I think she's just tired though-ready to go home.
*Mom also had a major breakthrough at work this past weekend. PTL!!!
*All kinds of drama broke out at church w/in the past week-Satan is rearing his ugly head but praise God, the enemy is defeated! We are victorious! In the end, WE WIN!
*We're starting Saturday Saturation at church-a service that will focus on just seeking God and His presence. I'm excited but also know I better get myself together before they start or I will fall apart.
*I'm meeting a guy Pastor wants to introduce me to next week at camp meeting. I'm excited but more excited for Pastor b/c he's getting his ordained bishop's license.
*I'm speaking at our church's ladies' mtg Thursday-should be interesting.
*Our worship team at church is starting to have practices so we can learn new material. Pastor's also wanting to start an ensemble so I'm sure that will be an adventure.
*I stay tired-a lot. I don't think I can fully de-stress or sleep well b/c of all the things my mind is constantly thinking about. Gotta work on letting go & making me time.
*I did make me time Saturday at the Paris pool. Let's suffice it to say, I could now be the hot magenta crayon in the Crayola box. :) Ah well, live & learn.

That's all I've got time for now. More later...sometime...when I can breathe...

Be blessed!
