Hmm, well here I am.

Some of my new office stuff came this afternoon. I had a LARGE cappuccino after lunch. There were over 30 men working on the railroad between BBow and Berwyn at 1pm. Berggren's finished the roof of the OK Luther Barn and put the "hat" back on top:) I was exhausted for Tag Team. The kids had a ball with paints and balloons. Alissa

I love kids, and God never ceases to use them as a pick-me-up in my life:) I love my MOPS kids! Did I tell you that last time they all told me they were going to be in my wedding? Not ask, mind you, they TOLD me:)! We did relays and I just love this picture from them. Quinn's napkin was floating off his head as he went down for the hat and I got it in the air. After MOPS we always go out for lunch, the kids, mom and me. Today we took Patty along and it was nice. The pizza was good and Brenna nearly ate herself sick, literally:S I've started on some quilts again! Alissa

This Monday, this day...is an ugh day. A day where I have to fight with my thoughts just to stay above the surface. It is days like these that make me understand a bit why people succumb to depression, especially without Christ to lean on for strength. My thoughts can overwhelm me if I let them. I will not let them. I will strive to take captive every thought. The Garden Center was pretty empty all day, even the Squiers' were in and out of the store. Having extra time on ones hands doesn't help sad and lonely thoughts. Hehe, I did get a lot of tetris in while I was there. My phone came in handy that way. It was fun watching the "rock man" unload our stones from the truck! Look at them go! Alissa
