New Year's Eve 2011

It's 11:15, New Year's Eve. Nothing much going on except a mind full of ideas, longings, a few regrets....just "stuff." Coldplay is singing on TV. Hubby has gone to bed. The Princess is doing her late night thing in the living room. Daisy and Darsy are hungover from catnip and sleeping it off. In less than 40 minutes 2012 will no longer be a mystery and 2011 will be history. God, there's a lot of work that needs to be done in me. Can You handle it? That's a stupid question but one I can't help but ask. I think I'm ready to hear and see Your answer. So, here goes nothing...and here goes everything.

    Lots of meaning with few well-chosen words. Love the phrase "2012 will no longer be a mystery and 2011 will be history." Can't wait to read more!

Are you in need?

Tomorrow morning during our time of Praise and Worship, we are singing a song that just gets me everytime. This song reminds me that in my time of need, no matter what the situation, I ALWAYS have someone to rescue me! Tomorrow, 9am, First Baptist Icard...."Jesus Saves!" "Jesus Saves" by Travis Cottrell and Prestonwood Baptist Church

Fear of being "Caught in the Act"

     I must say that I could write a book of all the stupid things I have done in my lifetime and probably fill up the Library of Congress! No really.....I am notorious for doing the dumbest things at the most inopportune time.  This morning as I was driving to school, several of these faux pas (is there a plural of faux pas?) came rushing to my mind. Luckily I was by myself at the time this incident occurred, but the thought of being "Caught in the Act" brought feelings of despair and extreme embarrassment!  Oh well, here goes.....      Yesterday, I bought some of those flossing placker things that looks like a toothpick but have dental floss on them, too.  I actually spent several minutes at Rite Aid looking at the different brands and prices, trying to figure out what was the best ones for me. I chose one that was reasonably priced, had a rather good amount in the packet, and seemed a fair quality of placker-thingy. My purpose i...

You just thought you knew everything there is to know about me, huh? Let's see....I am a teacher....check....huge Tennessee fan...check....hate raisins...check....a Christian...check...loves music...check...former hitch hiker....check..no wait...what? Ah, so you DON'T know everything about me! Okay, let's start with the latter... 10. I went to Europe the first time as a junior at Lenoir-Rhyne. I was with a family from LR, and then we also traveled with two guys from New York and a girl from Canada. Most of the group went to ski. Me...I tried skiing for 30 minutes and almost did not live to tell about it. So I went sightseeing, and how do you sight see in Europe? Hitch hike!! It was totally safe, and I was always with someone in the group, usually. And I decided it was best not to share this news with my parents until AFTER I returned from Europe! 9. I have a hard time telling my left from my right. I have to stop and think about it almost every time. Ask my husband and ...
