Big, Fat Failure

#1 Don't take this too seriously #2 But, seriously, I am a big, fat failure. Thankfully the Lord planned ahead. The 2012 Olympic Games reminded me of my failure as an athlete.  I always wanted to be in the Olympics but laziness and a lack of determination took over.  Of course, a lot of kids dream of being an Olympian and never make it so I don't really feel too bad.  Plus, there's always Rio 2016! :) I'm fairly smart...at least I always made good grades, but my contribution to our yearly household income probably averages in the negatives.  I'm a failed business woman.  I'm failing as we speak, but I'm okay with it.  My real full-time job just doesn't pay very well.  Speaking of that...parenting, I mean...according to Ted Tripp I'm pretty much a failure there too.  Also, okay.  My kids are still young, and I AM trying.  I've been a bad friend...selfish and lazy.  For that I am always sorry. It can be very de...

Women of Faith Conference - Debriefed

#1 You can take this seriously... #2 ...or not.  It's only my opinion. What : Women of Faith Conference Where : Duluth, Georgia When : This past Friday and Saturday Who : Sandi Patty, Amy Grant, Anita Renfroe, Brenda Warner, Kelly Minter, Mandisa, a good praise band, and others.  (Plus a big group of great friends from my church, Crossroads Baptist !) How :  How'd I get to go?  I was the grateful, last minute recipient of an unused ticket.  Also, my mom and dad just happen to be coming to town anyway, so they were kind enough to take on kid duty.  It seemed like the Lord wanted me at this conference for some reason.  Pros : We had fun...lots of laughs and good times.  Quality time with friends (of ALL ages!) is never wasted. The praise and worship was great! (But I couldn't help thinking they could use a little Christa Rooks . ;) ) Amy Grant, to my surprise, was probably one of my favorite parts. (I doubt this wo...

Meal Planning - Conquered!

#1 This may not work for you... #2 But it sure is working for me! A Month's Meals Why? -  Because I was failing to get a decent supper on the table for my children.   There was too much fast food, too many grilled cheese sandwiches, and too many evenings when I thought, "Maybe they just won't notice if I don't serve supper, and we can skip right on to the bedtime snack." SAD!  Doubly sad because I actually love to cook. Triply sad because I thought it would be easier with the hubby out of town...I mean, the kids don't care if we eat meat or not, and they don't mind having lasagna three nights in a row!  In reality, it was harder because I lacked motivation, and I REALLY lacked time to actually plan a meal. The Solution - I kept trying to plan for a week, try some new recipes, make out detailed shopping lists, and on and on, but nothing worked, so I did it my way...here ya go: {BUT FIRST, a little explanation...this is meant to be very flexib...
