Children of Eden

Last Tuesday, I had mentioned that I was auditioning for a part in our church’s yearly musical. For Dinner Theatre 2008, we are putting on Children of Eden.
Act 1 is a the story of Adam, Eve, Cain and Abel. Act 2 is about Noah and the flood.
I got cast as Eve. The [...]

A Time That Changed Me

When I was in grade school, it became very apparent that I was going to need braces at some point. My teeth were beyond crooked, my jaw “clicked” every time I ate, and my sister yelled at me almost nightly to chew with my mouth closed. It was obvious things were not growing [...]

Whoopdidoo!!

For the past 2 or 3 weeks, there has been a Whooping Cough outbreak in our school district. The majority of the cases are in the high schools (49 out of the 55 reported cases) with the other 6 scattered throughout the rest of the district.
I haven’t really been too concerned about it because [...]

Thursday Thirteen

Between my hand, the kids, and the weather (we seem to have skipped fall and gone straight to winter in Ohio), I seem to have found myself in the middle of a pessimist streak. As I was sitting here thinking of what I was going to do for my Thursday Thirteen, I decided [...]

The glass is just EMPTY!

I was sitting here today thinking about what I was going to blog about, because I had “writer’s block”. My first actual thought was:
“I’ve got nothing to blog about…nothing bad has happened…”
Can anyone say ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT?
For tomorrow’s installment, maybe I’ll do something crazy and blog about how WELL everything is going.
I know, it’ll be [...]

Taking a breather…

Thankfully, my hand is feeling much better today so I thought I’d try to write a post with substance…and type with 2 hands. It’s the little things in life, really…
The last few weeks, I have not been paying very much attention to my calendar when it comes to scheduling new things. This is [...]
