Lifes little slices - by charliesgirl_992000

"Settle mind, just settle!!"

rivers
Ohiopyle State Park."
Do you ever have sooo much you want to do, that you just don't want to sleep, or atleast your mind won't rest? Thats whats happening to me. i went to bed at five AM after a great day of spring cleaning. a youth meeting at church where we talked about drugs with the teens. where i learned taht this sunday my preacher won't be there again. so then neither will i probably. it took me awhile to like my preacher. i think he's a little on the mens side. Thinking women are a little too sentamental. he's probably right though. <girns> i learned taht he's thinking of leaving. i deiced to tell him why i didn't come to church last week, and taht i probably wouldn't come this week either. That it was because he wasn't there. i will look for another church if he leaves, probably. he's thinking of leaving because he's only been there seven years and is having some issues with some of the people taht have been there forever. They are bossy about the church. That saddens me because i don't see it. it also saddens me because i like my preacher. i hadn't realy been a church gower since before we moved here. even then we didn't always go. charlie grew up in church but his church was in ST.Louis. where he grew up. i lived in Illinois and he moved with me.

so, i went to bed at five. hubby woke up right after i got in there. so sleep didn't happen for awhile. <soft smile> slept for about an hour. then woke up wide awake. i want to put all those plants in my new bigger garden. i need to still fill up the little bed we cleaned and tilled during the dirt fight. i want to take down the greenhouse, off of my deck so i can put my patio furniture back on and light the tiki lights, play cards late at night out there. i need to clean off the pool deck and sand it so i can get a new fresh coat of paint on it. check all my wood furniture and see if any of that needs a fresh caot. i need to clean this bed here.
flower gardens
the flowers are beautiful, but it's overgrown badly. i want to paint my laundry room. clean out the cabinets. polish the cabinets and all the wood. maybe Murphy Oil them first. sooo much i want to do. vac out the rest of the window seals. sweep all the decks. go fishing. play with the puppies. make ruins, learn more palm reading.... finish my art class and paranormal. finish the seven or so pen pal letters and get them sent off. i gotta sleep though. i'll gtet exhausted enough to do so. should hit soon for a little more rest i hope. it's an amazingly beautiful morning out though. who wnats to sleep!!<smiles> i don't want to, but i have to or i'll be crap and get nothing done. i have all summer. shoot, i have always since i'm a house wife. i look forward to spring though, to spring clean. i'm not a wife that has hubby do painting and such. kills me when women B#@$% about hubbies not doing stuff. shoot, i do it here because i LOVE to do it. he loves it too i know. <soft smile>

I'll just settle for the stream and the trees and the overgrown garden, then I'm done for the day and will sleep! Tammy.

Sorry to hear about your preacher, Tammy. I know what you mean about learning to like/trust a certain preacher and then have them leave. The dynamics of churches bother me... I've seen this take place before where the "old members" think they know what's best for everyone. If I were the preacher, I'd probably leave too. I'm not one to hang around where I feel I'm unwanted.

When I was a kid, I grew up in a certain church. As a youngin', I loved it. As a young girl, it was still pretty okay, but everything changed as I became a teen and found myself facing teen pregnancy. At that point, the church members had a private meeting and decided it would be best if I didn't come back until after the baby was born, and to go back in adult classes rather than the youth group thereafter... because they thought I'd be a bad influence on the other teens. So much for the support, acceptance, and forgiveness I'd learned about all those years in church! Not long after, the preacher left... and my mom decided it was time for us to leave, too. She never did find another church, and I kinda gave up all together on religion (not spirituality, but religion).



kills me when women B#@$% about hubbies not doing stuff.

Woops. But in defense, not all husbands are as attentive as Charlie. You got lucky!

Wendi, Thats horrible!!! i cannot even believe they asked you to leave. Thats exactly why we attend United Church of Christ. wether you have peircings, tattoos and what not, it doesn't matter/ your welcome. The only thing is it use to be Lutheran but is reforemed to UCC. it's still containes Lutheran poeple. They reformed because they couldn't find a Lutherin preacher. the only one they could find was UCC. i wonder if they like us being there. us more open, creative people. they are always nice, and i never picked up taht our preacher was having a hard time. if he leaves, i wonder what will happen. do they have a differnet preacher in mind? is he or she lutheran or something new.
Charlie is Attentive. and i also do know, not every women is crazy like i am about always doing something. <grins> i don't sit still often. i know he loves it.<smiles>
luv ya, Tammy

Ash, i know, i jsut have sooo many things on my list taht i want to do. The kids are great with wanting to do all the stuff too. clean up after a lazy winter. it'll all get done in good timke. i have to kind of rush because it will soon get so hot you almost die doing stuff, so we spend all days from then on out either at ohiopyle or in the pool or creek. water activities. i sooo cannot handle the heat. so, gotta "get 'r' done". i'll be glad when i "Got "R" Did" <smiles> Kaitlyn Hates taht saying. it wasn't an Illinois Thing. neither was "Pop". lol
