I'm definitely flawed.

So I totally went back on my promise to NOT post on political items on Facebook the other day.  In fact, you could pretty much say, I STINK. 

I don't know why the sudden need to comment...or possibly rant...ahem....

But after a lot of thinking, I contacted the person that I went overboard with and apologized. Even though I stand by my beliefs and my statements, I need to learn restraint. Things can get so quickly out of hand...it's sad really, and I know I'm not the only one who suffers this ailment. 

However, for those of you that don't, do you have any tips for the weak?  I'm praying about staying patient and ignoring things that I find derogatory or agitating...but it's a constant struggle. I feel weak, and I hate that!  I make it a point to do a lot and accomplish as much I can, so when I can't do something I feel bad.

But maybe that's it.  I'm not relying enough on God.  This Sunday our Reverend told us that when we find our weaknesses, we gain our strength.  Why?  Because when we realize we can't do it, we start to rely on He that can do anything.

So looks like I'll be relying a lot on God while on Facebook...at least until the elections are over. ;)

Single parent

Ok, so the reason I haven't posted until now...

Single parent this week.

All I can say is yikes! I was good except the addition of teaching. That was the straw that tipped this camel's back.

With all the grading, test making, and lecture prep most all of my free time is taken up by class. And it never stops! College kids are needy, and request a lot of stuff...

I mean a lot.

I now understand why some professors seem so strict.

But I digress. I called in reinforcements one night. Thank goodness for my parents! I am blessed to have them!

Now I'm playing catch up and trying to get far ahead on my classes. That way when single parenting strikes again...and it will sooner than I think...I'll be prepared.

Test Run

Mark got up my clothesline.  I took it for a test spin the other day. 

I shouldn't be this giddy about something, but I am.  I love it! I dried a bunch of other laundry, sun-bleached all the diapes, and kept doing laundry to use it.

So I just have one question- Does this make me super old, lame, or weird?  Maybe it's the nice weather...because I don't think it should be this exciting.
