Weekend Recap

Saturday went well...busy, but we were able to do everything! I came home and absolutely crashed. I was in bed by 11:00 p.m. and that is a RARE occurrence! I even remembered to forward my clocks an hour for Daylight Savings Time!
We made it to Sunday School on time. This is the second week that has happened so I guess I'm on a roll! I've really missed Sunday School. It was my Sunday to teach Children's Church. We are studying Psalm 23 and talking about God as a shephed and we are His sheep. The kids made little sheep bodies with cotton balls and we outlined their little hands on black paper, cut them out, and used the thumb to paste the sheep's head on, and the other four fingers were the sheep's legs. It was too cute. The kids had fun. After church, we went to lunch at Tony's mom's house. She cooked a big pot of red beans and rice, fresh baked cornbread, peach cobbler, coconut cream pie, and a chocolate cream pie(she knows I don't like coconut!) My diet was kind of "nonexistent" Sunday. I couldn't let all that good food go to waste! LOL Haleigh invited a friend over and all of the girls played pretty well. We headed back to church about 4:30 p.m.---Discpleship training starts at 5:00 p.m., evening worship at 6:00 p.m.
Tonight I am at work. I arrived in early at work---boy that blew everyone's minds! I'll be leaving early, too!
I approached Tony about homeschooling all of the girls. It seems like we are back on negative terms as far as all that goes. I guess I knew he'd never go for it, but it is going to cause problems between us in the long run. Homeschooling is what I've decided is best for my children, but I guess I just need to pray about it more. Maybe Tony will come around on the issue. I'm really having a problem with his demands and the outcome does not look pretty.
I've tried to start up my personal Bible study time again. This month, I am reading Beth Moore's book, Breaking Free. I certainly could break free from some obstacles in my life. It's talking about being captive as a Christian. I'm trying to memorize the scripture passages for it. It's been so long since I have had to memorize scripture, but I need to be continously learning it and using it as a Christian.

That's all for now. I have to go do a little bit of patient care now!
Good night!~

Updates over the last couple of weeks...

The girls are all asleep in the den. We made the couch bed out and Haleigh and Holleigh are sleeping on the couch cushions together. I wish my camera was charged! I should be in bed, but I really am enjoying the quietness. I also, should be having my quiet time/prayer time now. For some reason, it is times like this when the entire house is quiet and it is late at night, that I feel closest to God. It's almost like He can hear me without listening to others...like He is sitting in my living room! Well technically He is, but you know what I mean! Now if I hear that "still small voice" I may just fall out of my chair!
I have been on a Medifast diet since the end of January, but I had lost a lot of weight when we all had the flu for 2 weeks. Altogether, I have lost 20 pounds since December. My goal is to lose 30 more or at least 25 more. It's been tough, but I am really trying this time. I don't like being overweight!

I have changed my site again. Same web addy, just changed back to my purple! It may change altogether if I go into some type of home business.
I'm about to venture into some direct selling businesses, but I haven't quite figured out which one yet. I'm still trying to narrow it down. Just wish I was talented enough to do ideas on my own!
It is time for me to take advantage of an early bedtime hour. Gee---bet it will feel wonderful to go to bed this early!
Here is our schedule for tomorrow:

8:00-10:00 Haleigh's softball practice
10:00-12:00 Holleigh's t-ball practice
After practice, grab a bite for lunch and away we go again...
2:00-4:00 Hannah's softball practice
2:00-4:00 Haleigh and Holleigh have a birthday party to attend
Home again, Home again, jiggity jig!
Tony should be home from the coast about 5:00 and there is no telling where we might go after that!
