A Sunday morning check in!

The kids have been out of control this morning- SO much fighting and yelling I felt like hiding my head under my pillow. I am about to hop in the shower to get ready for church. Each of the kids then has a basketball game and the Cub Scout Pack Swim Night is tonight... AS IF I might put on a swimsuit, LOL

I am plugging away at all of my digital assignments. Thank goodness I started smart with an Excel chart to keep me aware of what needs to be done. I definitely met the requirements of every team in January, I exceeded most, which was my goal!

I need to work on some paper projects this week- a Circle Journal entry and a few samples for my lss. I think I still remember how, LOL

We could be looking at a big storm on Tuesday... it's too early to tell. Too early? Seriously? Are they going to predict the storm once it's over? LOL

Just happened to hear the news that Baby Jessica (who was trapped in a well in the late 80's) is now a 19 year old college student and was married on Saturday! What the heck? Way to make me feel old, LOL I was in high school when she fell in the well and the whole country held their breath waiting for her rescue. What an amazing story of support!

This weekend also marks the 20th anniversary of the Challenger explosion from 1986. I remember that hitting me so hard. I was in 7th grade, living in Ormond Beach Florida. I was in Social Studies class at the time the shuttle was to take off. We went outside to watch it in the sky. We didn't realize what had happened as we cheered when we saw the shuttle in the sky overhead. We came back into the school to learn what had happened. I felt incredibly connected to Christa because she was from NH, my home state. I remember crying for days after. It was such a sad time for America and my heart still breaks 20 years later when I think of the great loss to her family.
