This and That

It's been a long time.

Who has time to blog anyway? There aren't enought hours in the day to do the things I have to do. Then at night I must surf for porn. I have to. It's an addiction and I must do it. Okay - not really! I realize that I occasionally get guest readers on here and they may read that and think I'm a big perv. For the record - I do not surf for porn! I own most of my porn. No, no, just kidding again!

So, I've been having a lot of trouble keeping my house clean. Well, it's never been clean to begin with so it's not hard keeping it in a state that it was never in. There's nothing like expecting a bunch of church ladies to come over to kick my behind into high gear and make me clean. That and finally buying a new vacuum cleaner. I love my little vacuum cleaner. It is so cute and small and light and it works! I'm still going to buy a mac daddy vacuum but this one will do for now. So last week, I cleaned most of the downstairs windows. Nasty. I hung curtains. Okay - Jay hung the curtains. But I picked them out! So last week, on Thursday, about 15 ladies from my Unity group came all the way out to Loganville to visit. It was fabulous. Sharon was our guest speaker and she did a great job!!! I didn't know she was such a good speaker. We really enjoyed having her. So, the food was good, the fellowship even better. It was all good.

Yesterday was the Women's Retreat. It was held at Lorna Cook's home and we had a great turnout. We watched a dvd series of Joni Erakson Tada. It was okay. I have to admit, I didn't love it. But it was okay. We had break out sessions and we actually had to work. We had our lunch catered by Jason's Deli. I was in charge of games. Why am I always in charge of games? I came up with four games and I think the ladies had a good time playing. The first was people bingo. The second was a game where they each had a line from a song and they had to find the other ladies that had their same song, put the lyrics in order, and then sing the song. It was a favorite. Another game was Animal Scramble. Each lady received a card w/ an animal name on it. They had to find all the other like animals in the room to make up their pack but they couldn't talk - they could only make the animal sound. I loved that one! They had so much fun being silly. The last one was Bible Trivia. I had lots of great prizes from Expressions by CK. Katherine gave me a great discount since it was for church. I think the Retreat turned out great and I hope everyone was pleased.

I came home and Mary was at Megan's bday party. I went to relieve Jay since he had to figure out how to bring Alex home from my dad's. Long story. I ended up staying a while because the girls were having a great time.

Today Mary is sick. All three have had the sore throat thing but in different weeks. She had a 102 degree fever this morning. She and I stayed home from church. She took some Motrin and seems fine but I can't ignore the fever from this morning. This means she will miss Ally's bday party this afternoon. I hate that! She was looking forward to it - and so was I!
