Teaching is so great. I don't care if it's 'only' teaching 100+ Kindergarteners their 6-digit student ID. Even teaching one of them is a great feat. I keep lists of who knows what, and it's been so cool to look at my lis…

Okay, remember the girl I mentioned that was finally getting her number down? ...never mind. She seems to get it, and then it's all wiped out the next day. Or, later that day. We talked about the possibility of there not…
Thank You Jesus! I got my new alarm remote today, programmed it, and it WORKS! Fixed everything. I've been praying the whole time, hoping that really was the only problem. It was. Yay!
Well, looks like the air condition…

I really like the point that my man Derek made, here: click. Good post. We can't just automatically go with the "God will solve your problems" approach to witnessing, because there are a lot of people who are quite happy…
As the kids were dismissed with prayer for Children's Church today, I watched them, as I always do. As my pastor prayed over them, "for our future lies in their hands," I couldn't help but smirk and think "Lord help us."…

Scott and I were talking a few weeks ago about Praise and Worship music. He's more into the classical stuff, while I'm into... almost anything (almost). And, since praise and worship is the current craze, I'll post my op…

Thanks be to my Daddy (who I haven't called "Daddy" in a really long time) who leaves work to come and rescue me... only to find out I could have rescued myself.
HAhaha... no I'm not explaining a thing. I might look stu…
What exactly demands a 5-year-old's time, anyway? I asked one of them to come out to the hall so I could work on her number with her, so she came out, and before she ever sat down, said, "I'm in a hurry."
.......well ex…
Yes, I abandoned you yesterday. I'm sorry, I was busy all day long. I got to work and a little while into a class, the Asst. Principal said, "come see me at 11, I've got a job for you if you're interested." So we met in …

I'm hungry. I need to take care of that. But anyway, I just got home from church a little while ago. Now I'm sitting here listening to Across The Sky, and was re-reading Ethan's and my argument down there and laughing at…
LOL! This made me laugh. I took a quiz to see "what kind of drink" I am. Well, I don't drink. So my results were: "Congratulations!! You're a glass of water!! ...um"Just struck me as funny. And how's this... "What Smiley…

Nicholas (Kinder.) walked in yesterday and started telling me all about his favorite author, Dr. Suess. We had a nice little chat about the Cat in the Hat. He gave me my favorite quote of the day (about…
"Shape me into something You can fill..."(from Hands of the Potter, by Caedmon's Call)How cool is that line? I love it.

Oh, how I wanted to throw my laptop across the room when it lost my entire post as I tried to submit it. ARG. Here we go again. Now I have to try to remember what I wrote. This will probably be shorter and less interesti…
This has just been revelation from God day, hasn't it? It's so cool to feel so connected to Him, yet at the same time... He's ruining all my plans. lol. Oh well. Okay, here's the message behind the last message:
I was g…
It's amazing, and utterly annoying, how things work out sometimes. I'm still trying to learn to listen to God and not myself and I can count on one hand how many times in my entire life that that's been easy. There have …

Never forget.
This is why I love Luke (and if you're not either him or me, then you won't understand the gag reflex thing). Here are some excerpts from today's episode of the Bethany and Lucas show:

My face is wet, my eyes are red, my nose is stuffy and my tear ducts are dry.

The war is a big issue in how people will vote come November, right? So, how does each candidate feel about the war? Well, we know how Bush feels, I assume, since he kind of started it and all. But what about Kerry? How …
Inspired by Luke's lists, I made some of my own. But this isn't nearly everthing that I love and don't love, so there may be more later. On my things I love list, one is "daydreaming" and one is "peanut M&Ms," so I a…
Okay. I am sufficiently burned. My skin is red and hurts rather... much. But I had lots of unf. I've been at Troy and Andrea and Blake's since 11:15 or so this morning (got home a little after 7pm). A couple of hours lat…
Everyone go to www.seventysevenmusic.com and listen to their song. Then go to the contact page and tell them they're cool (that last part is optional but you'll make me laugh if you do it). 'Cause they are. I seriously c…

If you don't like reading extremely long posts, then go do something else. You won't like this one.
