Monday evening

Well, I got caught up again at work today, so I deceided to leave 2 hours ealry so I could get some much needed rest. Got home and slept from 3 to 6 and then got up and ready for Vespers. I amazed Anna this evening by having a song totally committed to memory. Well Good night!!

Monday

Well I spent almost 90% of yesterday sleeping. Its funny that when you are a child a cold does not seem to effect you as much as it does when you are an adult. I so wanted to call in sick this morning but I know I cannot afford it. At least I still have my voice and I will be able to sing tonight. I was sort of concerned that I would not be able to but thank the Good Lord my voice is not really being affected with this cold.

Thoughts

What if something you thought to be true all your life turns out to not? For example what if you were told that the sky was pink and all your life that is what your perception was...the sky is pink other might say its blue but Pink is what I believe to be true. Well...I have just learned something in that area...sort of.... All my life I thought I was an easy going person....I thought I was someone who went with the "flow" and did not try to rock the boat in any way. I thought of my childhood as that being very easy going...sure I got into arguments with others and the fights that kids get into but I always believed I was a "good girl". I guess that is not the case....My parents as I just recently found out thought I was very rude alot of the times that I did things in a hap-hazzard way just to make things "waves" in the family unit. My mom said I was at times very biligerent and I use to argue them on every point.....Why is it that I don't remember that? I do remember being sort of rebelious but I think all kids go through that stage. Do they not? My sister just recently told me that I was NASTY to her as a child and I whined all the time. Yikes the things you learn about yourself once you are grown.....

Isn't it great that we can learn from our mistakes and grow to be a better person because of them....

Saturday

Well another day off is finally here. I slept in a bit this morning as this cold has me completly worn out. I have been taking my extra zinc and vitimin c so I can knock this cold out but so far no real big change. I think today I am just going to spen maybe watching some Xfiles dvds and then maybe doing some laundry.

Lord help me to better your world by my thought my words and actions. Please help me to see the glory of you in my every day surroundings.

Friday

I am sure happy its Friday. It feels like I am coming down with ANOTHER cold. I swear the more I try to take care of myself the sicker I seem to get.

Our Holy Father Pope John Paul has been sick also. I spent some time last night praying for him. This man has done so much good in this world. It will be a great loss for our nation when he does die.

Thursday

Had a hard time falling asleep last night. Too many things running though my mind. It seemed that when I finally fell asleep my alarm went off and it was time to start another day. I so want to remain positive today but with everything going on right now I think it is going to be hard.

God, Please grant me the ability to focus my thoughts and my actioins today to do the glory of your work here on the earth. Please help me to remain positive no matter how hard the task at hand may be.

Wednesday Night

Tonight was hard. I have alot of emotions running through my head. Mick is extremly ill and the kids in class were asking about him tonight. We had to tell them that it looks like that "Mr. Mick" will not be coming back and that he is soon to die. We discussed that Mick will be celebrating the real Easter sooner than we all thought he would. One child thought it would be a good idea if we made Mick an easter basket so he could celebrate Easter before his death and the DRE and I thought it would be a very good idea, so next week the kids are going to make the easter grass out of construction paper on which they will write good wishes for Mick and his family and I am going to buy a small toy lamb to he can see a symbolic meaning that soon he will see the REAL LAMB OF GOD...Its going to be an emotional class but I think this is a good idea of the kids and for us teachers.

Wednesday

Up and awake. Thank the good Lord for that one.

I am not too sure to what write on this I think I am going to do just what I have been doing with the AOL Journal just using it as a diary.

Went on my bike ride this morning. LOL Too cold for the outdoor kind so I went 3 miles on the indoor one, also lost another 2 pounds. :)

Tuesday...The day I got caught up

So....Guess what? I am finally all caught up at work. What a relief to have that all done...We still need alot of help getting some of the clearance costume jewelry out but I got everything new out so I am a happier campier.

So I found this new blog area....Maybe I will use this one at night and use the AOL one for my morning thoughts....but maybe since I am cancelling AOL I will just use this one....
