Success

Yesterday I took a personal day to crank out some personal stuff....namely all my seminary writings.  I over-stretched myself (what's new?) but this semester is nothing, and I do mean Nothing, like last semester.  Looking back at last semester I didn't have any time to reflect and soak in what I was learning.  I was reading hundreds of chapters daily and spitting out some sort of logical, dare I say, theological writing each week.  How can one remember to dot the "i"s and cross the "t"s and truly be reflective and theological when 2 or 3 assignments are due that same week?

I'm preaching in Hubby's stead this Sunday.  Yesterday I took off to complete my assignments and then work on the sermon.  Thankfully I looked closer at one of the syllabi and realized another blog post was due!  Whew, that was close, but it didn't get me any closer to my sermon.  LOL

Have I told my story about how I love to procrastinate?  I didn't exactly get the sermon typed out but I'm a little closer to getting there. The text is Mark 10:32-45- where James and John take Jesus aside and ask for seats of honor next to him in his messianic kingdom.  I'm going to talk about that or the upcoming election or saving the earth!  I'm all over the place, I tell ya.  Sidebar: I really won't preach solely on the election but it is current and relevant to today's goings on.

Success!!!!  Boy finished ALL his school work yesterday and is now on Fall Break.  I asked if he would write my sermon.  Why is he still laughing?

Happy Thursday, Grainiacs! The weekend is almost here.

P.S.  I am having success with my diet too!!!  I am striving to remain stress-free.  I firmly believe stress sabotages a weight-loss plan.  Get rid of some stress and lose some weight.  That's my story and I'm sticking to it like the fat is sticking to me!
