Sleep, come quickly please...

So here it is, 11:08pm as I begin this post and I am not having much luck shutting my body down for the day. Lucky for you readers, I am in a much better frame of mind than I was during my last real post. (And mom, you can still vent to me. You know I like to solve problems so don't get all silent on me now that you think I'm tired of worrying about you.)

Overall, today has been a good day. Work was productive and a potential tiff w/a co-worker was avoided. I got the T-shirts ordered for VBS-well, at least stage one ordered anyway. I also got the final two signs 99% complete for the different stations of VBS and made the copies of the doorhangers and registration forms. I got to chat w/mom for a few-mainly me running my mouth telling stories about my life as of late. Since I've been home, I've eaten dinner and organized some and then tried (unsuccessfully) to get my new Treo phone to the status of my former one that bit the dust last week.

Speaking of, I'm telling you folks, last week was just not my week. I'd love to go into details but I'd love to just forget it ever happened even more. Here's a sentence that sums it up for you though:

After getting 4-5 hours of sleep every night, my phone quit working on Wednesday and I had to talk to 2 different AT&T reps before finally getting one that knew what he was doing all the while taking 15 million calls from the bank that gave me my car loan regarding my payment that I didn't get vouchers for until Tuesday, going to TX State Camp Meeting in Weatherford Thursday and cheering on my Pastor as he received his ordained bishop's license and then having an emotional meltdown Friday after driving back from Weatherford at 5am and then working for 2 hours and finally ending up at my Grandmother's after crying for most of the day and ultimately seeing my mother, taking a nap, getting some rest and taking my mom to the airport just in time to make it back for puppet practice that my kids didn't show for and Saturday Saturation during which I kept nursery for part of the time and finally making it home at 11pm after helping Shannon with some nursing stuff and getting myself unloaded, unpacked and completely exhausted in the bed at 1:30am.

Ok, if that sentence made no sense to you, it didn't to me either but oh well. I think I made myself sleepy just typing that mile long run-on sentence so maybe I better sleep. I'll be in better form tomorrow and look forward to writing (more coherently) then. :)

Blessings,

But as for me, I will always have hope; I will praise You more and more.
