The Quiet of the Evening

Okay, it's not really quiet around here. But J is studying Bible Bowl, R is working on tax papers, and D is chatting to a GIRL on the phone. (Yes, a girl - don't panic.)

I got most of the stuff done today for a creative writing festival at school. I HATE taking care of something new - there's always something you forget to do or somehow you mess up. Oh well, it will be better next year if they let me do it again!

Most everyone around here in the city has broken out of the ice. Some people have taken chainsaws and pick axes to their ice blocks. I was very thankful to have R around to do the dirty work for me! :)

Our kid overnighter at the church had to be rescheduled. The parking lot was still covered with ice. Our theme was "Beach Blast," so it would have been fun in all this winter weather. We might do it next weekend.

Not much else to say today. I'm going to look to see if I can find some bulk eyelash yarn on the internet. I love the scarves that I can make from that. It doesn't take long to crochet them.

I wish it were warmer or at least not so much snow. I wanted to go geocaching this weekend. Oh well!

Yeah!!!!! Snow!!!!!

Well, we finally got some snow here! It was enough to make driving home from church a little scary - but not too bad. No church tonight, so we all just hung out at home and watched the football game on TV.

The call came about 9:00 to cancel school tomorrow! Yeah! Now I can clean! Yeah - I think!

But see, I think I got that ticket yesterday for a reason - God was arranging things so we wouldn't take that thing to church in West Virginia and end up in an accident. Who knows? I just know He takes good care of us!

Good sermon at church today - I'll post some notes later.

I wonder why I think I can write in fragments in this blog. Oh well.
