March Twentieth…

The pictures today are of son1’s Jeep from when he was over putting new lights on with yellow happy face covers and he built the stand for his jack on the hood of the Jeep…

There must be thirty little birds all fluttering in the yard from the ground to the fence to the tree and back… playing in the rain and foraging for the last of the birdseed that is left… I’ll refill the birdfeeders when the rain is done… although they are saying rain/showers all week…

I wasn’t able to see the super moon due to the clouds and rain…

Haven’t heard from son1 this weekend… he went to watch professional bull riding on Friday…

son2 won his tennis match at his away game on Thursday… and then stayed home sick from school on Friday, head cold…

Son3 has been working on a practice test all weekend to get ready for state testing next month… 140 questions… he flew through the math section… but the English part is what takes him so long… not that he reads the accompanying stories… he tries to just guess at what the best answer is…

I’ve been keeping busy at work, waiting for them to announce the new shoe lead… Friday I set the ad, changed out sale tables, made three athletic clearance tables, sorted the signs for Sunday’s ad, went to lunch, opened all the boxes, started some price changes and then went 25 minutes past my scheduled time talking to the supervisor when she came in as we are both wondering when they will announce the new lead so she can go to her new position…

Today I set the ad, it was a big take down mostly, went to lunch, opened most of the boxes and already time to go home…

Saturday I just did a few things around the house, the boys were on their games, hubby took Danny for a walk, hubby and son2 have been watching tennis with hubby give him pointers as he used to play and teach tennis, I did a ton of laundry and made chili dogs for dinner… I watched The Switch with Justin Bateman and Jennifer Aniston… It was ok… I think Justin Bateman did a better job than Jennifer Aniston or it was just a better movie for him… Then we all watched Unstoppable, very good, a very simple movie with just a bit of action and suspense… And an episode of Angel… the boys are now waiting as dinner is ready, lasagna, and we are going to watch two more episodes of Angel as the boys are hooked on it…

On this day, God wants you to know

... that when you come to a wall, you can either climb it, or you can simply walk around until you find a door. Don't make life so hard, - look for the doors!

On this day, God wants you to know

... that if you relax, it comes. Don't seek, don't search, don't ask, don't knock, don't demand - relax. If you relax, it is there. If you relax, God shows you the way.

On this day, God wants you to know

... that prayer is real only when done with your whole heart. Reserve the sound of your voice for other people. God hears only what's in your heart.

Happy Journaling…
