Coffee's on, thank you Lord.
I slept through the ENTIRE Night last night until SIX am this morning.
For those of you that know my sleep history, you know what an amazing occurrence that is.
I has been grinding my teeth so hard since Friday I nearly made myself sick yesterday with headaches and jaw pain.
It let up after the radio show.
I am feeling much more confident with next week's show. Fine tune a little here, a little there.
But the nerves are gone. Again I have never been more thankful for someone carrying a bit of the load with me. Deb, WHO KNEW this is how it would all turn out???? You are totally paying me back for those 4-6 hour days at the park when I was 8 months pregnant! Lol
She starts as an interview and ends as a co-host. Pay's not very good but I'd say that speaks volumes about YOU! :) Thanks to Tif for calling in too! I think you should call every week. Yep, I am going to have you check in every week with us until your comfortable. I'm glad I get to do it again in a week instead of a month, like the mag. Though every OTHER month would be better for the mag anyway. Hmmm....
March issue just finished being edited and will go to print. Had to go up 4 pages. WOOHOO.
Sloan just BLESSED my heart yesterday when I told her to call in the show and talk about how hard it was to have me behind the computer and she totally just went on and on about what a great MOm I was and how I was not behind the computer too much...how of COURSE I had to work since I was running a magazine and the girls and her just loved me so much, etc. etc.
Her little voice sounded so cute and sweet and here I was confessing and she was just as sweet and loving and oh-so respectful...so I could tell on myself but SHE was having none of it. Man, I love that kid.
Cool about the Pennies thing. Not much I know, but for little SEVEN year olds to do it-I'd say that is pretty exciting!
It feels SO BIZARRE to not have anything pressing on me this second. I even planned for Sunday School last night IN BED so I could take this morning off.
I may even make it to early service. I should get some extra work in but I don't think I will. Deb told me sometimes I may THINK the roof is going to cave in if I don't do X,Y or Z but that it likely wouldn't. Now, I think I may just take me a little of that and chew on it awhile.
My desk is a MESS. I hate it.
I am missing blogging less and less. I think that is sad when I used to love it so much.
I miss ACTUAL people.
I love that Tiff stays around even though I am so busy. She feels like the only remaining connection to the group for me. Maybe it's because she is a board member, (of mine) but I prefer to think of it because she is a good friend. Thanks for being there for me Tif! I know I don't ask too much of you (I hope anyway) but what you don't realize is when I need you, I really, really need you and you are always there with a good, open attitude, a kind but HONEST word and well, you are appreciated!
Coffee's done- hold on-
Ok, I'm back.
Winning stream though is when I was prepping for class I was going over this exercise where the kids write down their two biggest chores on two different sticky notes and we create a bar graph. Then we label the column with the most of the same chore "High Priority List" and talk about all chores, why that chore seemed to be the one everyone had to do, etc. etc. But then we put LOVING AND SERVING GOD IS MORE IMPORTANT over the High Priority List. Now you will remember me making a JOKE about this last week. But this week as I studied it closer I realized wow, who's this bible lesson for anyway?
Good reminder for me as I struggle along with being so-o-o busy. That tt is NOT my biggest priority! (or should not be anyway) Which as you know actually means, God comes first, then FAMILY comes second, church third and work last! I still battle with these priorities when they used to come so easily to me.
What's to become of all this? This editor just does. not. know.
Thankful thankful THANKFUL for Sunday. And am going to try to bust it to early service because I NEED it!!
Happy Sunday Brethren. If I don't see you on this side, I'll see you on the other!

I didn't blog for about four days and realized how quickly the love fades. But I enjoy your posts so try to do it every once in awhile, when you aren't busy doing the 100 other things you do everyday.
Sloan is so sweet to say those things.
Good stream of thought.
Hi Steph,
I listened to first half of the show on Saturday (had to turn it off due to prior plans)and thought it went great! I'm sad that I missed Sloan's call, but got to hear Tiffany's. :o) Know that I was keeping an eye on the clock and prayed for you and Debbie prior to the show...for the nerves, for the stress and for Christ's peace to reign! I could tell you became more and more comfortable as the show progressed...not to mention that you and Debbie worked so well together. Kudos for your opening show~ Heather
Honey chile' you couldn't get rid of me if you tried. You're stuck with me as your forever friend.
