About Me

I'm not really a superstar, except maybe to my husband, who I happen to be deeply in love with. My life: following Jesus, learning to live and love like Him. He is in the driver's seat, and I am on an adventure.

Another good, not so good post

Well, another week filled with good and not so good.
Not so good: Saturday Timm found out that the board he has been interviewing with for months did not have a unanimous "yes" to appoint him principal of the new school. And, since they want the vote to be unanimous, they had to turn him down. Ugh.
good: At least we are done WAITING for that board to make a decision
good: The company Timm works for wants to keep him employed. They are invested in him and are trying to find a position for him for next year. He should be interviewing soon with another board for a school in Queens. A little further than we hoped to have him commute, but if it is God's will for him to be there, so be it!
good: Monday night I had the coolest opportunity. Through a friend from MI, got connected with a guy who was hosting an event at the Hyatt in NYC. He needed a little help with hospitality for the event. Long story short, I "worked" with a couple of friends for about an hour and a half, got paid some cash, then was invited to enjoy the rest of the evening which included delicious food, open bar, entertainment! SO FUN!
not so good: did someone say open bar? Might have had one too many glasses of (free) wine :)
good, good, and good: (Ew, weird, that doesn't look like a word to me anymore, I've overused it and it looks strange) ANyways, the girls had a half day yesterday and I attended their parent/teacher conferences. I could write for an hour about how PROUD I am to be the Mother of these incredible, smart, obedient, loving, kind girls who just radiate with the fruits of the spirit!! I was almost in tears at their conferences, just hearing about them through the perspective of their teachers. JOY!
good: Spent the gorgeous day playing at the park, and walking to Mc Donald's to celebrate their awesome report cards.
good: Forecast is sunny and mid 60's the rest of the week.
good: neighbors coming over tonight for corned beef n cabbage and green drinks. (we usually just dye our milk green- the girls love it - Timm thinks it is disgusting).
God is good.

You can hold your head high and let your chest puff out. You have been careful and caring raising your children to Love the Lord and "to love others as yourself". They are only reaching the level you helped raise them too.
Green milk, we may try that. tmp

Girls died their milk green. K1 didn't like it. They all had green mashed potatoes and loved them. GROSS! I had white potatoes.
