Last year's Chicago trip was considered to be pretty relaxing. But due to the shortening of the trip (returning at 2am Sunday) and a busy Sunday, this week did not begin so relaxed. Sunday's busyness included volleyball and the first pictures of the year to prove it!
A tie-breaking third game was supposed to go down, but at the last second, the girls proposed something else. That's right, making it all about gender in a girls vs. guys game. Who won again?
Real life kicked in at work last week with a full-time work schedule. So I had to be in to work at (gasp) 8am today. But thanks to the 12 hour work day last week, it was only a half day. The rest of the afternoon allowed me to get the annual gutter cleaning done for a lady at church while hearing several more stories about what Peoria was like 50 years ago. Then computer support and dinner with Jimmy D's fam. I feel pretty wimpy when it occurs to me that God has me on a "light" learning plan. It doesn't seem so light to have your income cut in half, actually have to sweat on your new job and still realize God easily provides. But try seeing that happen to a family with 8 kids who then tricks you into staying a feeding YOU dinner :-) It's alot harder to complain about circumstances and throw a pity party for myself, even if I do have excuses.
And finally, a winning night at church league softball. Pictures are still being added occasionally. Today's MVP is the dynamic duo that is Phillips.
