Listening: to the news talk about the horrific tornado that happened in Oklahoma. I can not imagine the what those families are feeling right now. I am so sad for them.

 Loving: that #1 and P*Tricky brought me a Sonic Iced Tea. I love a good iced tea, with crushed ice.  It makes me happy.

 Thinking: about all the stuff I need to get done before the 2013 Youth Mission Trip to South Dakota. 

• plan the menu and get the grocery list together
• morning devotions written
• evening devotions written
• make sure I have the right clothes
• make sure the 3 kids I have going on the trip with me have what they need
• plan for my business stuff while I'm away
• itinerary plans for the trip
• itinerary plans for the kids that stay home. (they are much happier and treat #1 better when I write down everything they are suppose to do)

Wanting: to find my STUPID car title.

Needing: (see above)

Stalking:  All paperwork in my house… because I'm looking for my stupid car title… :/

A book about nothing.. that I love.. and makes me laugh.

This week has been crazy…. what am I talking about?  This last few months have been pretty nuts. Here's an overview of what I've done this summer.. (not in any particular order)

• Planned and went on a 7 day mission trip with 20 people… where I was responsible for their entertainment, health, well being and spiritual growth.  I was also responsible for food for 20 for breakfast, 60 for lunch and 20 for dinner… oh and snacks.
• Youth Sunday: where the youth and I plan an entire Sunday Morning Service.. and I usually give the sermon.
• Write and deliver a sermon
• Deal with a stalker, and a few insane people that I seem to let bother me.
• Deal with 7 children that have different personalities and believe at any given time they are RIGHT.. and everyone else is not.
• Receive 2 traffic tickets totaling $300.00
• I'm a mandated reporter.. (enough said about that)
• VBS for 5 nights.. and planning what I hope are cool crafts..
• Hosted several dinner parties at my house (FUN!)
• Stayed up every night to watch the Olympics.. because I've been at VBS. 🙂
• Had an older couple hit my car and LEAVE the scene.
• Finished up School… only to seem like I have woke up and I have to start getting ready for it again.
• I've tried to keep my business running.. while doing all that stuff.

I think I have gotten off topic… ANYWAY.. . this little book makes me happy.  When I feel down, I just open it up and check off a few things I am good at… Here are a few for today:

• Getting Kids to share their toys.
• Getting Adults to share their toys. (I use shame)
• Organizing Mission Trips
• Planning crafts for VBS
• Adapting crafts for VBS
• Starting many single blog entries and not finishing them.
• Using Q-Tips responsibly.
• Finding new crafty uses for Q-Tips
• Being cool with closet chaos.  (I'm not.. but I can act like it)
• Portioning food out evenly
• Capturing the moment
• Watching the Olympics while pretending to be listening to others around me
• Not freaking out
• Remembering what used to be there
• Cat Sitting
• Resisting the urge to eat all the cheese right after grating it.
• Listening to people tell me how homeschooling is going to make my children not social… (it happened)
