My husband is in a position where he may be offered a job. If so, he expects the salary to be much more than what he's making now, and what's even more important to me is that he says it's something he would enjoy doing as well. So please pray for us that this offer will come through. Thank you.My dad and stepmother have gone on a cruise. Please pray for them to have a safe trip.Please pray

I go pick Hannah up today. She'll likely study all weekend, since final exams are next week. Then she'll come home for Christmas break.A couple of days ago, I spent the day feeling down. Couldn't seem to get myself out of it. Yesterday, I was still feeling it, but I decided I wasn't going to let it keep me down. I decided I was going to do whatever I needed to do to make myself feel better.

Remind J. to talk to M. about insurance. Call about Premier Health Plus. Make doctor's appointment for J. concerning his foot. Call Oxford High School and see if they have any extra annuals from 1981.Call phone company about bill payment.

I received an email from the WBS* today. They've assigned me a Bible study helper, K. She'll be sending me my lessons and looking over them to see how well I seem to understand what I've read, and trying to encourage me and help me to be consistent with my studies.Consistency is what I need to work on right now, probably more than anything else. I used to do really well about reading and/or

I got my first online order today! I can't believe it! I about fell in the floor!I checked email this morning, and it appeared I had something from myself. I thought, "what's this?" Then I looked at the subject line, and it said "Order Process." I thought, "No way!" But when I opened it, it was an order! It's not a big order, and I don't care. It's my FIRST order from my website!Yay!!!

I'm starting to feel better. I met a lady at The Rainbow who is diabetic. I asked her some questions about how to decide what will or won't hurt me when I eat it. She said that the glycemic index is a good way to decide. She also told me that I need to be eating at least every 2.5 to 3 hours, even if it's just a little something.She also said getting a little exercise each day would help, even if

I feel awful. I haven't felt this way in months. I have no energy and very little motivation to get up and do anything. And my pms was worse this month than it has been in months.Ever since my doctor found the maximum thyroid dose I can take safely, and then added anti-depressant to it, and adjusted the dose a bit, my pms has been MUCH better. Then I cut sugar and potatoes out of my diet, and

Well, I tried to do the first lesson in that other Bible study course, but when I got to the questions at the end of the lesson, there were questions that none of the multiple choice answers were correct. And I didn't like the direction it was taking. In the very first lesson, it was already leaving the scriptures and teaching baptist doctrine instead. So I decided to sign up for a course with

I noticed last night that I haven't been spending as much time in prayer or Bible study as I used to do, or need to do. So last night I prayed about it. Today I did some research and found an online Bible study I can do, and a site that has a daily Bible reading for reading the Bible in chronological order in one year. I don't care whether I do it in a year or not. But I have always wanted to

Ok, if I start re-educating myself, I'm going to need to go back to Alg. 2 and refresh my memory a bit. I guess 20+ years is just too long to be able to remember it all, heh.Here's our list of what else we need to get for our homeschool. We can get by with what we have, but these are some things we'll need in the relatively near future, and some of it is extra stuff that I'd like to have.Ray's

Wow, I went and spent some time with my kids, and I feel better. Not great, but certainly a lot better than before.I did some math with Sarah, showed Wes and Joe a new math program I found for the computer, looked at some books in the RC list with Joe, and printed out a poem/story he found in there that he wanted to read, and helped Wes get started with a new book in his Power Touch System.

I'm not sure what's going on. Yesterday I felt down.... sad, depressed, etc...... this morning I felt better. But then this afternoon I'm starting to feel down again. Maybe I'm just pms'ing. But my doctor put me on medicine that is supposed to help with it, and has been helping up until recently. Maybe my body's changed enough that my medicine needs adjusting. Or maybe I'm just not getting enough

I just spoke with the Dean of Students. He assured me that any time I need to be later than 2 picking up my dd, it's fine. She just needs to let her dorm mother know that she's going to be late leaving and needs to wait in the lobby. I mentioned to him what happened Friday, and explained that she thought she was to be out of the dorm by 2, no exceptions, so she had taken her stuff outside to wait

I'm feeling pretty frustrated today. My older dd was nearly written up at college Friday because I was later than 2 getting there to pick her up. Now I'll admit, I should have checked the student handbook to see what time she was supposed to be off campus. But today I did check it, and it doesn't say. It does say that she is supposed to be out of the dorm by 2. But it doesn't say what time

Well, this is the first time I've ever used a blog. So we'll see how it goes.I think I'll probably use it mostly for just organizing my own thoughts, keeping a set of online bookmarks, and leaving reminders for myself. I may occasionally go on a rant about something.
