A Day in the life
Alan is home sick today. Seems there is a stomach virus being passed around the house. I WILL NOT GET IT! I just refuse. Alan has sick days, I do not and therefore I do not get paid if I do not go to work. I don't mind it, most of the time. You all read me complaining here but I like my job. I like the money. I am amazed at how much money I made in 2003. May I be as blessed and make more. That would be nice.

This past weekend was amazing! Mayhem in Cincinnati was very good. Blossoming friendships flourished, older ones were added to and new ones began. I have to admit that I focused more on that than the talks by Brian McLaren, and the little I paid attention to was very good and poinient. I have finally gotten hold of the copy "More Ready Than You Realize" that has been going around our community. I started it yesterday but only got 4 or 5 pages in. It is good so far, it is just time working against me.

Meaghan had a horseshow on Sunday. It was the first time she cantered in competition, and we were both a bit nervous. She got first in her first class, even with a mess up, and then second in her second class. We were very proud of her. Not just because of the place she got but that she gave her all and did a good job. She just loves what she does. Here's a little Quicktime movie of Meaghan on her winning ride. It's about a megabyte, so be patient.

Here is my blog. It is the thoughts and feelings of an "aging," homeschooling housewife who serves at a local restaurant. I am an average everyday normal kind of person, although my "normalness" becomes less so in today's society. Read on and enjoy or just realize you may not be the only one.
