grit and glory

dunno if it’s a highlight, but my foster ‘child’ spend his first night of the next 3 weeks with me….and we only got up twice during the night….major accomplishment.

really like the new banner

just a couple more days in SA….

that dog would drive me nuts, melissita!

a good heart to heart chat with a friend

- Watched Zorro on Monday night

- Had to explain why I missed so much work the week before on Tuesday (I was sick)

- Volunteered in the GF on Wednesday…

- Thursday…I cleaned the entire new sanctuary

- Friday, could have died, or watched other people die…no joke. Had a bad day. But then had a better night, went to dinner with some of my friends

- Was dead tired from the stress of Friday on Saturday…

- Now I’m commenting on my sister’s blog. Woot!

Highlight of my week?

Making it through the week.

Can I just say to all those male commenteurs out there … it’s great to have you on here! I’m wondering if the presence of a few had spurred the others onward. :)

The highlight of my week? ….mmmmmm…. Today, I think. I’m visiting friends for a birthday - have lost enough weight that I look great in my nice shirt I bought last year (and that makes me feel great), and I’m getting to see one of my friends that I miss SO MUCH four times this week! (The fourth being that we’re going to a homemaker’s small group class at church on Tuesday. I’m excited about that!

And to your news -
Tonsils - :(
Hair - :s
Banner, e-mail, and Zobni - :>
Neil’s arrival - :D
Ingrid’s song - :? - the site won’t load.

Spring is finally getting to Connecticut, Friday temps made it to 60.

Baseball, baseball, baseball.

Found a new Sheriff Dan Rhodes mystery at the library.

Looney Tunes Cartoon movies are just a funny now as when I first show them as a child.

Bruce Springsteen is still the boss.

Shared many laughs with my friends.

Found a new friend in Africa.

Made it out of bed everyday with only minor aches and pains.

Did not break anything in my home or burn any meals.

Learned something new each day.

grrr…danielle had a good heart to heart chat with a friend

highlight: skyping a near-total-stranger

um. can i ask why you re-cut the hair?

i heart Ingrid.

Sorry to hear about your tonsils.

My highlights:

- Learned some html, like how to bold, italicize and underline words.

- My hubby came back from a 5 day trip to Santiago, Chile.

- Finished writing my book!

hmm - I’ll have to go find out why the underline didn’t work…

Picked up Alex at the airport

Danced on stage in a soon to go world wide music video for a new christian artist. (look for it on itunes and youtube here in a few months) haha yes that really happened..

this week i ate an unusual amount of ice cream… chocolate chip cookie dough flavour.

tanned, or got more tan, tanner, went tanning. (in the real sun, no fake baking here)

oh i have two more!!

first of all i just heard this testimony from a friend of mine up at Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry (Bill Johnson’s) were on a mission trip down to mexico. they drove past a car accident and saw a baby thrown from the vehicle. the baby died, the team stopped and prayed for it and after 6 minutes the baby came back to life! Jesus still does miracles and signs to make us wonder!

and the second one isnt as cool but my favorite new cd just became available on itunes for downloading. no more myspace listening.

This week I felt love from many people.

I finally signed up for a film class I’ve been talking about.

A surprise find: sheet music from the series Firefly.

Being done with my two gargantuan looming projects. I feel like…a normal person again.
Warm weather has helped, too.

I got new shoes. Running shoes. That aren’t Addidas, which I’m usually quite particular and partial to (but 60 bucks? Eh. I’m not THAT partial.)

I love you.

Playing the rain with my kids.
Church today.
Watching my son get his first hit in a baseball game.

daniel — i was wondering about that heart-to-heart of yours…

annie — link should be working now! (and way to go on the weight loss!)

ed — i’m going to a detroit tigers game on tuesday. i can’t wait. i have no idea who they’re playing. if it’s the yankees, i could get myself into some trouble.

mandy — a near stranger? i’m curious. and my hair…well it seemed a bit too long. i LOVE the left side of my head at the moment. now i need to get the right side to match it.

hannah — i can’t wait to eat cookie dough ice cream. and what’s your new favorite cd?

new favorite cd - Kim Walker’s Here Is My Song
