Time for a status update... probably not such a good idea considering the mood I'm in but here goes...
Sitting: and watching the Cardinal game... one out away from being eliminated... anticipating it to all be over before I finish this.
Waiting: for the game to be over... it's been such a sad NLDS. Who would have thought that the Cardinals would have done so poorly?
Glad: for a surprise visit from Sammy & Lizzie this afternoon. Jason & Jenny went to a movie and we got to watch the kiddos. Glad: for friends from church and their encouraging words about our children's ministry.
Needing: sleep... a couple of early mornings the last 2 days and not sleeping well at night is making for a bad combination.
Reading: not much time for reading lately.
Avoiding: filing... again.
Enjoyed: a recent visit from Malikas and the trip to the Mississippi coast. Today we had a video chat online with her and Sammy and Lizzie. The kids thought it was interesting that it was dark at her house but not here. However, I don't think Lizzie understood. She asked, "Masha, could you come see us in a few minutes?" :-)
Preparing: for KidZone Worship (really reviewing) and a visit from Moses and Aaron and also for 2 meetings Sunday afternoon.
Drinking: caffeine-free diet Coke.
Snacking: on nothing; had a late dinner.
Trying: to make sure everything is ready for Upward Evaluations which start on Monday. It'll be a busy week but one of my favorites!
Ending: a wonderful visit with Malikas on Tuesday as she headed back to the Isle of Man. It's always hard to say good-bye. :-(
Misc: pray for Sara. She's in Oklahoma ministering to some kids that she got to know on her many trips to Casa Bernabe (orphanage in Guatemala). Five children (siblings) were adopted a couple of years ago. Last week the oldest (19 or 20) killed himself. Sara wanted to be with the younger siblings.
The Cardinal season is over... but it's all put in perspective when I think about what Sara is doing.
