Tugie at 8:30 last night.....
Tugie at 10:00 with her nose and eyes burired in the pillows <LOL!>
Is she not a mess or what? LOL
Well, this week is just really flying by. I like it when it does that b/c the weekend gets here sooner. Then we can be our own again. Just think if Adam and Eve and the rest of us hadn't sinned, then we'd all be enjoying our Edens instead of having to work for Edens and then not have time to enjoy them when we get them. Such is the fate of life huh?
Well, too bad, I had a few minutes of enjoyment today...Hubby and I....he fixed his mower saving us close to 2700 on a new mower. And I typed up my #9 exam essay. Afterwards we met in the garden. LOL Having each met our own successes. The rain had come and we did not have to water, so for a brief 1/2 hour or so, we got to bask on our back patio and enjoy the quietness, talk about our feelings, talk about the future. All very nice.
We talked about whether or not to go to Orange Beach, AL when it is time for my graduation. He cannot fathom the importance of going somewhere to go thru a graduation for an online community. LOL Well, me neither. He says "you are going for the beach". I say, "I'm going for the picture of me with my degree AND the beach!" I can hold off another year on a beachy vacation. But 2010 we will go somewhere! I'll not be able to stand it any longer. Every 3 years I must have the sand in my toes, seafood onmy plate, and beachy sunsets in my view. If not, I shall run away to it! LOL Just every 3 years is all. I will get no argument from Hubby or TheTeen. We will have some awesome vacation too before TheTeen leaves us for college. Not sure what it will be...but we'll fly some where. Hawaii? Cozumel? Who knows? It'll be a grand one before she goes and leaves the nest. Maybe we should just save up for that one huh? LOL Secretly, I'm thinking TheTeen and I will sneak off on a cruise sometime...just the two of us. We'd have a blast. Hubby is not into cruises and I want to go on one. Ok enough dreaming.....but it's fun to dream isn't it? Just another height to reach, something to dream and look forward to.
Well, I am hoping to unload some boxes this weekend, and perhaps finally find the DVD and VCR. I'm floored. How can we not know which box this is in? I know all the boxes I packed I labeled with VIP or ESSENTIAL and even listed some of the things on the outside. That worked well. Only very few things packed I could not find...and what I could not find was mainly due to boxes I could not get to to read what was on them b/c it was blocked by lawn mowers and such. LOL We have a busy weekend going already, but maybe I can find it....
I can watch my netflix on the computer and may do that tonight....or I could watch it downstairs and sit in the rocking chair (no sofa yet)....which reminds me...my city has no furniture stores....LOL That is ok....just delays us spending money....although having the sofa downstairs and the high dining kitching table will complete our day to day living)....the formal living area will stay bare for a while....but that is ok...we'll all get over it. LOL
Well, TheTeen is doing a bowling-devo nite with YawnGuy and his church youth group. It's the church that she goes to school at - at the Christian school.
Speaking of church....we have picked our church to try on Sunday morning. I can think of at least 3 to 4 places we want to try. The place we are going Sunday is a larger church and has two services. We will most likely go to a Sunday School too b/c that is really where you can interact with folks to see if you want to be there. I think we are going to be very picky about where we go. We'llsee how it goes. I'm really a bit nervous about it b/c I'm so afraid that we are all going to like different places and not agree. So please pray for us in this manner that we are all unison as to where it is we worship. I want to fit in like a glove. I have a lot of feelings about it and for personal reasons I will refrain from my total thoughts on this journal. But I will tell you, if it is not a church I feel comfortable in, I won't hear of it. If must require love, worship, and focus on a relationship with God. If there is squabble over people judging one another, or squabbles over legalism, then I will have no part of it. I want to worship our God, I want to praise him, I want to reach out to others who are also wanting to serve Him, and I will have no part of this common day dilemma of arguing over every little thing. I won't discuss it and I won't have it. Yes I am stubborn as the rest of 'em. LOL I say let God handle it. He wants our attention and he wants us to serve him, period. And not get lost in all this other mess that the devil leads everyone too, taking them off track of the real picture. Ok I'm thru. LOL Deep seeded feelings are starting to come out and I must reign them in before I make someone mad. Politics and religion...always makes folks mad. LOL
And Sonya...Sonya always makes someone mad, somewhere. Sorry. I am me, developed by my experiences, and my learnings...and it is what it is and it has ALL developed my attitude and feelings - not easily to be changed either. Had I not the experiences, I'd have not these feelings....thank God our God is a friend and a father. He is all things. All things that can replace all the imperfect things on earth. And no one can take that away...
Well, now that I am deep...maybe I should end here. Hope you all have a great evening and a great Thursday. Sheeshers, is it not Friday yet? My list of things to do is so long now that I am not ever sure I will ever get thru. But I'll sure as heck keep trying.

Hope your weekend is a great one and that you have a happy Mother's Day. I'm off to my campsite after work today . Friday is a vacation day for me. 3 days at the camper are a little bit of heaven for me. It's still too cold to use the beach, but it is there and in sight every day. 'On Ya' - ma

I know you will find the right church! I will say prayers that God leads you to the right decision as you are looking. We are so happy with our church. We like that no one cares that I am late a lot because I sleep like a rock ....and the man that preaches gives the sermon just like my grandfather did. Straight out of the word of God and no frills, just plain truth. The people are nice and they seem caring and kind and down to earth. We really like it. I know you will find the right place. A nice change of pace to look forward to. So cute that Tugie!! Hugs,

I hope you find a place that your entire family likes. Let me know where you find a place and I'll see if we can hook you up with anybody there. Can't promise anything, but I can try. Lots of Love!

Tugie must wear herself out during the day looking out her new windows. I am sure you will find a church that fits you. It is always hard to move from one church to another. I am not a fan of the larger churches because I feel that I am just a number. I have found that I am comfortable in smaller churches where things are less formal. I have my daily devotional regardless of what else is going on and it gives me a calm easy feeling.
