Woo-hoo! A Girl's Night Out! :o)

I don't have long to post because I am reheating leftovers for dinner and it won't take long. However, I just wanted to let you all know - because I know that you would not be able to make it through the weekend without being in the know! LOL! - that I'm going to enjoy dinner with Mrs. Pink tomorrow night. No kids. No hubbies. Just us...and we are SO excited!

THEN on Saturday, I get to hang out all morning and a good portion f the afternoon with my MIL. With No hubbies. And no Kiddo. We MIGHT even get a mani and a pedi. Oh my GOSH that sounds good! (Although any poor person who has to scrub and moisturize my cracked and dry heels might not think so! :o)

And HOW did I get a full 24 hours (nearly) to do these things you ask? Simple answer: the boys (including FIL, and even Mrs. Pink's family) are going on a family camp out with the church. They'll have a blast and in return, we'll be able to meet them Saturday afternoon renewed and refreshed...and even a little more GIRLY. :o)

I pray you all have a blessed weekend and know that I am thinking of and praying for you!

P.S. I would LOVE to hear YOUR weekend plans! What are YOU going to do this weekend?

HAVE A FABULOUS MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND!

Your comment on Big Mama about the flash photos was HILARIOUS!

I'm glad you got some time away with a friend.
That's always fun.

Hummm, this weekend.....
tomorrow my daughter and I are going to a friend's personal shower. Tomorrow night we're having friends over for some of the catfish we caught last weekend.
Sunday, my hubby & son and I are going to our friend's house to fish. They're out of town and hubby is feeding their horses and we're gonna fish while we're at it.
Monday....not so much a vacation.....hubby says the beets are ready in his garden and it's time to pickle them. It's a mes, but we love them.

Have a good weekend.
Love,
Valerie

Hope your weekend was even better than you thought it would be.

My weekend . . . I kept my two grandchildren so their parents could have a get-away weekend without kids. They are 11 mos. and 5 years old and just adorable!

On the Brink of More Change...

I can feel it. I am on the cusp of something new. Something different. Something beautiful. I still have no idea what God might be up to - and I am truly okay with that at the moment. I have completed another round of Freedom in Christ. God spoke to me in so many ways...and He continues to do so. I feel so very valued and treasured by my Father. I am in relationship with Him in ways that I always wanted - yet never really felt were achievable. As I have put forth the effort to come to Him more consistently and with a growing desire to go deeper, He has been unendingly gracious and faithful. So as I fall on my face, He gently leans in and scoops me up. The panic and anxiety that once ruled my life are far less, and the calm amidst the  chaos has grown exponentially. I know where to go when it begins to grow again...and it does. Sometimes. Yet God is always ready when I call on Him...and that in and of itself are a learning curve for me. I've learned that others are not constant. Sh...

I Have Returned to the Land of the Living...

I promise that I'm around and making it here! It's been pretty crazy what with starting school and becoming a leader in our homeschool support group. (In my defense, I didn't realize that was what I was doing. I thought I was going to coordinate the holiday parties...turns out when you only have one active officer, said officer reserves the right to make you a leader in that group. Hmm. The things you learn. :) School is going okay...or should I be more specific? Social studies, Language Arts and Science are going okay...mathematics? Not so great. We have determined that Hooked on Math is NOT a good match for my child. He gets SO frustrated he winds up in tears within seconds of the MENTION of "Hooked on Math". (While I must admit that a portion of this is due to his processing issues and I want him to learn to be more flexible, I NEVER want him to be THIS stressed out. Therefore we are searching for a new math program/curriculum. I am very interested in Math-U-Se...

Keeping My Eyes Fixed In the Storms of Life

On September 20th, my father-in-law collapsed at home. My mother-in-law called 9-1-1 and emergency crews arrived within a few minutes. During that time, he stopped breathing and had no heartbeat. Emergency crews were able to revive him, and he was transported to a local heart hospital. The next two weeks were nothing short of torturous. In order to stop potential brain damage, he underwent a procedure that chilled his core body temperature almost 10 degrees and then after 24 hours, warmed him to normal body temp. Doctors were unsure if he would awake. However, after 12 days on the ventilator, when it was removed, it was like someone flipped a switch. He simply woke up. Even the doctors were amazed. Still groggy from the medications used during that time, he remembers nothing from that time, until about 5 days later, shortly before he had his pacemaker installed. Twenty-two days after his "cardiac event", he was released from the hospital. Still quite weak, he continues to g...
