My last night as a child.

This week end was rather productive.
I:
~ held two babies (rocked one of them to sleep, I still have "it")
~ pulled weeds in my front yard
~ wrapped 4 presents
~ attended 2 birthday parties
~ borrowed 13 books from the library
~ washed, folded and put away 4 loads of laundry, and yet I am still not caught up. Ugh.
~ bought 2 new blouses for my new job
~ fell asleep on the couch while watching my husband play Rock Band
~ dyed my hair, it looks fabulous
~ looked at houses on mls
~ played with my children
~ read a couple of chapters from, Yada Yada Prayer Group Gets Down I am on the second book and am loving the series. The series is about a group of random Christian women who met at a interdenominational women's retreat, they are placed into a prayer group, which was out of their comfort zone, however, they had a spiritual connection which led them to keep the group going. What is so facinating about this series is how they interact and learn from each other, given there very diversified backgrounds. Not only do they have different denominations, but different social classes, ages and race. There diversification brings them closer to God by learning through each other's experiences they may not have encountered other wise. As the group gets closer, they too find themselves connecting with God on a more personal level. I highly recommend the books.
~went to church
~ put ice on my child's eye at church
~ went out for lunch after church
~ picked up the tomato plants and egg plants from my friends house. I will be planting them tomorrow. The tomato plants are already 2 feet tall. I can't wait to see what they will do in my garden.
~ enjoyed a nice bowl of ice cream.
~relaxed

After all that, I am ready to grow up and start a near full time job tomorrow. The good thing is it is only this week that I am in the office, after that I will be only out working 25 hours a week in field. I am looking forward to the flexibility and increase in pay.

Yeah, to growing up. Boo, for having to wake up every day before 9:00am. Yeah, for having a job which will teach me and my daughter to be ready by 8:30 every morning. Boo, for going to bed early. And yeah, to God for giving me the experience needed to take this job, and giving me this job.
