Hey All,

This is to say that I'm leaving livejournal merely because I'm looking for the BBD. The bigger, better, deal. Just kidding, I've always wanted to say that, though.

But anyway, check me out at http://greenjellybellies.blogspot.com.

I'll check back here occasionally.

It's been a slice. (How cheesy am I?) Ok, I'll admit it, I'm horrible ( Read more... )

Let me just say that I am now joining in the masses who have had poor service and inexcuseable treatment by the U-Haul Company. Jamie and I rent a storage space from them and for the past 3 months I have been dealing with people who could care less about me (or customers in general) or just don't know what they are doing ( Read more... )

During New Staff Training, we talked about momentum and how important it is in doing Ministry Partnership Development (support raising). I'm finding a bit hard as my husband wasn't with me during the training (he had previously gone a couple years ago) and the things that I learned are a bit rusty in his mind and getting him to feel the same about ( Read more... )

One thing I have enjoyed is going back and reading through my blogs (as well with my own journal). I'm always amazed at some of the witty or insightful things I've written as well as remembering certain things that I felt or that happened to me. But the best thing about re-reading old blogs is seeing how you've changed and grown over a period of ( Read more... )

I love the fall. The smells, the warm days and cool nights, the anticipation of a new school year (even though I'm not in school). That's it, I think. The feeling of anticipation I get in the fall. I remember every year in the fall I would get a new outfit and probably new shoes because I had outgrown my old ones. I would get new school stuff (only ( Read more... )

I've decided I need to write a book about my family. After spending the weekend with all 3 of my aunts plus my mom, sister and 2 cousins...I think I've got enough ammo...er...I mean inspiration to write a trilogy. I think I'll title it...My mom and her sisters...or How I ended up NOrmal. NO, that's not right...I'm definitely far from normal. ( Read more... )

The last little while I've been just whipping through some good books. One book called Flabbergasted, really made me want to start writing a book. I used to write fictional stuff all the time but I guess I just got too busy. And then I think I thought that I had nothing to write about that was really worth reading. Most of what I know really well ( Read more... )

I haven't updated in a while now so I will give a wee update.
Been doing a lot of having fun (baseball games, cottages, waterskiing, parties, scrapbooking) and not a whole lot of anything else...which obviously has its pros and cons. Tomorrow we have our vacation at John's cottage but the past week has been full of fun while we hung out with Steve ( Read more... )

I love the summer. The heat and humidity and sweat marks and stinky shoes. I love it all. Well, ok, maybe not LOVE, but I'll take 'em because they go along with all the other things I love like camping! I went camping last weekend with some of my favourite people and I had so much fun! And I got a mother burn. Whoo...Oh well. Hopefully it'll turn ( Read more... )

follower

When I looked up "follower" in the dictionary (or at least typed into www.dictionary.com) there were a few definitions but this one I felt best described what I am called to do as a follower of Christ.
First of all, I ( Read more... )
