Statistics show that one in every four women in each church community is being abused by her partner or has been abused in the past.
Time for a little math....
....how many women is this in your church community?
WRITE-ON, MOM! ......writing life ~ living my story.....

Would someone like to hire me?
Because I need a paycheck.
I am not good at a lot of things.
But the things I am good at, I really am good at.
But, like I said, those few things are limited.
So if you would like to write a letter to grandma, but don't have time.....
Like to write a letter of complaint.....I'm good at complaining....
Need to promote your business in writing.....I'm good at promoting
Need to write a letter to your kid from the (tooth fairy, santa, easter bunny, fill in the blank)...I'm your girl.
Got a speech to give? I can write that.
Want to read things I have written? Or will write?
Call the newspaper and tell them that you have the best story ever but you only want to give the exclusive to me.....so they should just hire me already....
Sound good?

Song of the day
Make that Songs of the day...or two....
My playlist for the next couple of days are songs that remind me of the 6th-12th grade choir concert I went to tonight. So much fun to watch all the kids. And listen to them perform.
And Ty......
The expression on his face while he is up there singing sort of gives me goosebumps. He just sings and smiles and he loves it! And the audience does too.
And so do I.
Nathan tells me he likes choir. Which, if he didn't, I'm fine with that. But he says he likes it. I had to ask, though, because the look on his face says something like "I wish I were anywhere else but here."
The girls look like they have the attitude of somewhere between Nathan and Ty.
Love them all.

Random
Kids are coming home from their long week at their dad's tonight!
TONIGHT!
Gosh I love those kids.
(the cat misses them too.....scroll down to read about her if you missed that one)
I have about 14 million places I need to be this weekend.
It is true, that I can be at 4 places at once. Through the magic of friends and family. And cameras. and sometimes, the checkbook.
But realistically, this weekend, I am only going to be able to be at one place. At one time.
And I feel like I need to breathe into a bag right now just thinking about it.
And I wish-oh-how-i-wish that one of the places I could be is at the funeral of a beloved acquaintance. Even though that isn't a place that anyone wishes they ever have to be.
oh. tears.
I got an CD of the Writers Conference I went to with ALL of the classes on it....even the ones I could not go to.....and it says it can be played on the computer and on MP3 players.
So I bought an MP3 player.
And I spent an entire afternoon trying to get it to work.
I even asked for help.
Before I gave up and decided that once again, technology and me to not have a good working relationship at all.
The last of the randomness (for today):
If you are following me over here on the blog, leave a comment to let me know.

Thanks.
