Too Terrible

It was a bad week from the start...you know the kind that start off with snow. sigh.
Will spring and summer ever come? To top that it is the week before Easter which means the job I work at is crazy busy..you know so much so that you have 36 hours in three days..not counting the other two you work. Through all the lack of sleep and work work work...I could still hear this voice.... You know...that voice that when God speaks and you don't really believe it is Him..(or maybe that is just me.) But anyway...this voice I heard, but since I'm kind of superstitious..and in this case I very much wanted to be and laughted it off. You see that snowy night..yeah the one  at the beginning of the week...started out with a late start for work which was normal. What was not normal was this car that just seemed to try and catch up to me. I thought it strange but continued on my merry way, very alert to police sightings and the such. Well this particular car did indeed catch up. Those voices continued in her head...suspicious that there were other reasons the car decided to catch up. I continued on my way, breaking speed limits, in my feeble attempts to get to work on a night I really wanted to stay home in bed. And then came the brightness of patriotic colors. "Oh say can you see"....yeah. I could see all right. Those superstitions were indeed true.
After going a large amount over the speed limit in two different speed zones, giving the wrong insurance paper (but he left it go)...He sent me on my way with a  lovely "slow down and have a good night."
But that voice continued...that one that told me no lesson was learned. Yes my head is hard I know. sigh.
"two times in one week"
Really? NO...I am imagining the worst. But alas there was a reason I was working crazy hours. Bills to pay. ~Commonwealth of PA your welcome!
I like to make excuses..you know like..you work 12 hours and not want to get home. Alas I kept those thoughts to myself. I got just a warning for speeding...but since he went to the bother of stopping me...he gave me a citation for something else...."defendant drove entirely in the oncoming lane around a curve when no obstruction occurred."  I couldn't fight it in court...I have no memory whatsoever. Thus my intuition played out. Two times in one week. I think I jinxed myself.
On a side note...you know police like donuts?...well I tried it! lol

I have a visitor this weekend. I am hoping the weekend starts off a little bit better!

When I Grow Up

Image
My kids love to sing. Right now for some reason they keep picking the song "When I Grow Up." The chorus goes: "When I grow up I wanna be just like you, so don't disappoint me I can see what you do. If you follow Jesus I will follow him too, so don't disappoint me, I can see what you do." Don't forbid little children to come unto Him For such is the kingdom of God, Always set an example that points out the way And do what the Lord has to say. Don't forget little children become big folks some day For what you see becomes what you do. If you walk with Jesus, I'll walk with Him too. So don't forget, I'm close behind you. I really like the song but when it's time for the chorus it gets me every time. Maybe it is those 12 hands and 60 fingers that are pointing my way. Today I pointed back at them and they had a few words to say as soon as the song finish! "Miss....WE ARE FOLLOWING YOU! You can't foll...

February

..here it is. It's hot, dry, and breezy. The month is almost halfway gone already. sigh. It's hard to believe it's been one whole year already that I've been married to this wonderful man. He truly is so extremely good for me. Marriage is a wonderful thing. It's good to have the first year behind us though. We look forward to many more! February 7 is Independence Day. The churches had a picnic and cooked the national dish. Kyla...or little Cindy as I call her. oil down...it was deliciously made by Sammy. A few wore their Independence colors!  Sailing festival was also held the other weekend on the beach. I was wishing so badly I had remembered my camera but alas phone pictures had to work! Sports Day is coming up for most schools. I went to Wesley College Sports day on Wednesday. It was good to see how secondary schools do it! I went in support of Alana's son Joshim. He didn't disapp...

of police and goodbyes

Image
It was the night before some people departed the states to the wonderful Isle of Spice. Who wouldn't stay out late? Well...I would..and I did. The regrets came in the morning with only 2 hours of sleep and off to work at an unearthly hour. I work when I can...even if it is only a few hours. I felt like I had to keep redoing things...my brain was malfunctioning. Coffee was needed but I didn't want to be the reason for potty breaks on the way to the airport...thus I refrained. I left work in my own little world oblivious to a police officer sitting nearby. I believe he was sleeping as well..much to my benefit. With suitcases packed on that Ford truck we began to "RUN IT"...traffic moves well most days. I try to keep with traffic. They can usually break radar for you. The SUV lost me when it got to about 25 over the speed limit. It was a good thing! There was enough of a gap between us that officer had his nose out in traffic as I tried to quickly change lanes. Sorry fo...
