Remember me?

Hi world! Yes, we are still alive and kicking over here. . .
Wish I had some incredibly exciting news to share - like we just got back from deep sea fishing or a trip to Africa. Unfortunately, or fortunately, we've just been living life. We survived/enjoyed our annual Women of Excellence conference. It was hosted at our church this year - and although it was a huge amount of work, we were able to move forward on some construction projects and the Lord came through in some miraculous ways. Plus, it was a LOT of fun! The very next weekend was opening day of Little League baseball season and my 37th birthday. We have not stopped having all of The Fun. . .
Actually, I'm still milking the birthday treats since we were so busy that weekend. Trying to schedule a pedicure and I still have a little bit of shopping money to spend! My kids are spring breakin' it this week - and I'm trying not to be jealous as I tiptoe out of the house in the morning to keep from waking the noisy little people. Just wanted to fill you in on all the exciting things we've been up to. All in all, we are richly blessed and thankful for His faithfulness!

I am a Promise!

I am a Promise! I am a possibility.   I am a Promise,   With a capital 'P'. I am a great, big bundle of potentiality!     And I am learning to hear God's voice. And I am trying to make the right choice. I am a promise to be anything He wants me to be! (My future scientist, artist, engineer and vet are courtesy of the Houston Children's Museum.)

Stupid is as stupid does

Ok, so have you ever had one of those days where things are just messed up?  That was me today. I stayed up too late last night so it was hard to get up this morning.  Had to be at work for an 8:00 meeting and caught EVERY red light between my neighborhood and work.  No big deal, they weren't ready to start when I walked in (with my supervisor) at 8:05.  But, in order to get there even close to 8:00, I skipped making a stop at the gas station to fill up.  I did the math all the way to work - when did the light come on? How many miles had I gone since then?  After work, I planned to stop at the nearest gas station - but, you guessed it, I didn't make it.  Nothing like running out of gas in rush hour traffic! I sat there, embarrassed, trying not to look at the people glaring at me as they passed me - I was stopped just shy of a major intersection.  The Hubs was close by so he came to my rescue - but my car keeps the radio and lights running for 10 m...

Winter Storm 2011

Well, I think we're going to make it. The threat of 5 inches of snow is now past - and we've not missed a single moment of electricity or heat. The biggest dilemma at our house is that the Xbox won't play right now.  Kid #1 continues to ask "What are we gonna do today?" and we finally answered with "Nothing!" I do need to introduce you to the newest members of the family. . . The two tetras have been around for several years and just got upgraded to a bigger tank. They have now been joined by 2 beautiful guppies and a molly.  None of them have been named yet, but I'm putting in my vote today: the black one should be 'Vader' (as in Darth), and I think the guppies should be Phineas and Ferb.  The tetras would have to be 'Peat' and 'Repeat' since you can't tell the difference between them.  What do you think?  (Which is funny that I ask, because a. you probably won't respond and b. they're not my fish to name) I...
