one of those days...

we all have them don't we - the days when we just aren't right. it doesn't matter what anyone says you aren't going to agree. or you just want to stomp your foot and scream. or you want to be left alone, but not really. and if someone told you to sit down and eat the whole tub of ice cream you wouldn't do it - just because they told you to!

well, friday was one of those days for mapboy and as a result for me as well! i'm not sure what it was but he was going to be difficult no matter what i did! gotta love those days don't we!

needless to say, while he was having one of those days, i was having a garage sale with a friend and my sister-in-law. her 3 kids were here and i just couldn't figure him out!!

at the end of this very frustrating day i just wanted to cry!! of all days why did he have to pick today to be like this? was it the garage sale (you know, the fact that mom had something to do)? was it the fact that there were people to play with and he couldn't handle that? or is there really something to the thought that the moon/stars affect our moods?? i guess i'll never really know the answer to the trauma that day.

thankfully, that day is over and a new one has begun and i can enjoy each one until we have another ONE OF THOSE DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the "calling"

okay - so it's been awhile since i've ranted...and it's time! it is beautiful outside and i'm sitting inside my makeshift office at the church. i am lucky enough to have a door that opens to the outside so it is wide open and i'm loving that. but as i'm working here today i feel the need to rant so enjoy.... being in my position i often have to ask people to help out. you know, volunteer to teach or work in the nursery or teach or hang out with the kids, you know - volunteer! i love all the responses i get. i am particularly fond of the "i don't like kids one" - it doesn't go over real well with me when they have 3 of their own. hmm??? but the one that really gets my goat is the "i don't feel called to that." argh...really!?!?!!?!? well, i didn't feel called to wipe my kids bottoms either, but it is a good thing i did it anyways. surprisingly, everyone feels called to the waterpark though! now, let me back up a ...
