Woohoo Wednesday !
What a great day ! Lots of sunshine, friends, tennis and working out. The only thing missing in my perfect day was sushi. You couldn’t ask for a more perfect day than today. Oh, between tennis and weights, I burned 1478 calories. Go me.
However, I am very tired. Wow. I guess it is all the exercise I am doing. I feel wiped out around now. Time to put on my pjs, curl up with a cup of hot tea and watch American Idol. I surely hope the American public was smart enough to vote off Sanjaya. However his name is spelled. After watching last night’s episode, I really hope Jordin wins. I can’t believe she is only 17. So pretty and what a voice. I love it that she is not a stick-thin toothpick of a person. She is much more of a realistic model for our daughters. Ok, I have no idea how I got on that.
This afternoon, when I opened my mail, I received an email from the "searcher" that I had contacted. I literally started shaking. I was hoping that it told me about her birthmother, but it didn’t. At least I know that I have contact with a living person in Russia. The searcher told me a couple things that I need to do. Once that is done, he said it generally takes about 4-6 weeks before we know anything at all.
I have this urge to read right now. I keep looking at a lot of my religious books. Some look very interesting. I think because of the birthmother stuff going on I am searching out my "calm". Being quiet and reflective brings me peace. I have this desire to cook for our priests. I don’t even know if I can explain that one. I think a lot about what Mother Theresa said one time " treat everyone as if they are Jesus". If everyone did that we would have a much nicer world to live in. Anyways, my point being, I can’t cook for Jesus but I can do somehting nice for the priests.
Egads, I’m in an odd mood tonight. Lots going on in my head. Lots. Some personal stuff, some friend stuff, some family stuff. I’m definitely looking forward to church on Sunday.
Enjoy your evening, everyone. Say a prayer or pass on some positive thoughts for all of the families/students involved at VA Tech.
I need to find a church here. It’s been a year since we moved, and I haven’t been to one church. Even if I don’t want to go, I should do it for Riley because she loves to go. I think reading about how it brings you peace makes me long for the days when I had a church home. I must find a new one. Thanks for making me think! And for thinking of us during Riley’s surgery. Love ya!
