Nov. 6, 2006 - WHERE have I been?
I cannot believe it has been this long since I last posted! School started and activities and LIFE just got hectic! I should be in bed right now, but I have a touch of insomnia. Why? Because....
1. We had a birthday party last night for me that was a bomb.
2. My son decided a few days ago, while in class at our Christian homeschool co-op, to angrily utter the word D--N when his best friend wouldn't sit by him.
3. Same 5 year old son tried to hit Grandpa last night at my bd party.
4. I have been doing great on a new diet and then the last 2 days, BLOWN IT!
5. We are behind in school already and I'm gonna be too tired tomorrow to hold a regular schedule, which I haven't done for about 6 weeks because I've been too busy with our co-op stuff!
So, I cannot sleep.
Does anyone else have cobwebs in the corners, dirty toilets, piles of books, grime in the corners of the floors, a filthy shower, and a garage that needs cleaning? This keeps me up as well.
Plus, I'm 32 now. WOW! Just saying that seems weird. When did I even hit 30?
Also, we've been taking a class at church on Sunday nights, called The Truth Project (put out by Focus on the Family--it's GREAT!). I'm thinking a lot about how to be bolder with my faith. I wish I could be less emotional and more eloquent, as well as know the right way to bring up God in conversations without offending or being worried about offending.
LAST thing keeping me up: I LOVE MY HUSBAND! Why would I be out here on the computer instead of in bed with him then? Well, we just celebrated 10 YEARS of marriage (but this Juen we celebrated 15 years of being a couple). Anyway, 10 years! And I'm rediscovering my love for him all over again. I realized tonight that when I look into his eyes while we're talking, my heart beats faster. I also found while at church tonight that I love his smell. This is good, since we suffered a rough patch a few years ago that has since been healed, but being a homeschooling mom with 3 kids and TONS of activities doesn't leave a lot of time for romance--so just that I have gooey feelings for him leaves me with lots of hope for the future!
And with that, at 2:30am, I will leave you to go join my delicious hubby's choir of snores! :)
Glad to be back!

Please lift her before the Lord and stop by to let her know you are praying.
Thank you,
