On the fly
Hey everybody!
I'm just on my way out the door in 8 minutes to yet another class. Tonight is my Functional Assessment and Positive Behavior Supports for Students with Special Needs class in which I am to have a 20 minute presentation for a 20 page paper prepared. YEEHAW. I hope I survive. Is it bad that I'm tired out already and it's only the first day back from "break"?
What I'm Wearing...sloppy clothes with messy hair. Maybe I should do something about that before class. Meh.
How I'm Feeling...can anybody say "pressured"? No, it's not that bad...I just have a ton of work to do.
What's Keeping me Going: The thought that I can buy coffee (ew) during the break in our class tonight, the prospect of the IVCF dance on Friday and a trip to Value Village for clothes--yay for 70s theme!; our bowling shirt shopping trip on Friday for our bowling team that's entered for Saturday's bowlerama, and of course, Saturday's bowlerama. AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST...God. Where would I be without Him? Oooo! Ooo! I know the answer to this one! I would be wailing like a baby and overwhelmed with all of the work..but alas, HE IS GOOD!
What's Been Making Me Think: The Mormons that came into my house last night. Man they excite me...not in a way that makes me entertain their ideas, but makes me really excited/agitated (not happy excited either...you know what I mean) because it's so clear they flounder for answers. ARGH...45 minutes of talking and at the end I was able to pray with them which was neat, but MAN ALIVE. I took their Book of Mormon: Another Gospel of Jesus Christ to put on my shelf next to The New Translation of the Holy Scriptures (The J.W. Bible) and the book that I'm trying to re-read in my spare time that is SO interesting, The Kingdom of the Cults. AHHH...
Anyway, sometimes I was floundering to refute what they were saying which really made me want to get into the Bible more. Wow. I don't think I will ever know the Bible as well as I should. BUT I AM GOING TO TRY. Keep me accountable! Pray for the Mormons too...
Well I've got to run to class now...wish me luck in my presentation and that I'll be awake enough to make some sense out of it so others will have a chance of understanding what I'm talking about!! haha...
Over and out

Hey girl! You are amazing...taking Mormons in to discuss your faith then accepting their material?? I am far from doin that...you have solid faith and courage, pride in Christ I guess you could call it. I would never have the nerve to invite someone into my house who was trying to lure me into their faith. HAHAHA, I hide when JW's come knocking at my door...I am such a coward lol! It's great you are taking their material and trying to decipher between truth and lies. You have that gift...which means I must sit next to you at church more often, so I can question what the pastor is saying too...I always just take everything in and believe it to be true...I have a hard time knowing what is from God and what is just babbling. Even though you may feel your faith is weak, it is strong! God has given you courage AND the gift of deciphering between right and wrong teachings. Keep questioning whatever you are told...God is making you wise like Solomon.
As for the IVCF dance...I hear S'toon is coming down!!! No fair...I want to be there sooooo SOOO very badly...but there is work for me to do at Dominos...but I hope you have a blast and a half!
Cheers!
