So, whatcha thinking....?

Kev and I have known each other a long time (about 21 years...man, that's long!). When we were dating in high school/college, we would occasionally ask, "What are you thinking?" Looking back, I think it was just some sort of mind game we were playing to try and get the other person to think about kissing or something...oh, those were the days....

Anywhoo, I woke up EXTREMELY early this morning (4:00-ish...I think my body knew I'm not going to get another week day to sleep in for a while, so it's "taking advantage"!!), so here's what's on my mind today...so far:
  • I hope my friends Garrick, Briana and their daughter, Molly, are doing okay and feeling our prayers
  • I wonder if Kevin & I should take Lanie with us to Six Flags today, since it's one of our last days "off", and for some reason I'm not all that concerned with the big coasters today. (I would almost say I'm scared, but that seems really weird to me)
  • I feel ready for school, but I'm still trying to be super-mature about the librarian position at my school--it's getting easier...I just keep reminding myself that there's some sort of Purpose for me in my classroom. (Yes, I know it's capitalized...it's what I feel!)
  • I hope I'm able to be the change that our Super-Intendent talked about yesterday, and that I WILL find the treasure in every child!
  • I know that I need to start working out and eating better, b/c I'm just not feeling right/healthy, but I don't have the drive right now. I'm hoping it comes soon!
  • Would I be happy joining Weight-Watchers, or would I just feel frustrated b/c I KNOW I can do it successfully on my own, I just need to try?!
  • I am glad I'm selling PC, but lately...this week, especially, I've found myself wanting MORE time with Lanie and Kevin, and trying to figure out how to get more and still have more money coming in...it all comes down to money, doesn't it?
  • I'm worried about this football season, and how Kev (and Lanie and I!) are going to deal with Brett Favre, the Packers, and the Jets...I don't think it's going to be pretty!
  • I'm SOOO glad my sister's fiance, Tim, is moving to St. Louis!!! His last day is today, and I know he's going to love the "teaching world" much more than the radio world!
  • I'm SOOO hoping my sister finds a job with SSD somewhere soon! I know she's wanting a change, and I hate that I can't help her!
  • I need to (again!) revisit the "working out, eating right" thought, b/c my sister's getting married in October 2009!!!
  • I hope someone I know comes to school on Monday with a different mindset than I've noticed this past week.
  • I miss my friend, Leslie, and her family:(
  • I miss my Grandpa
  • I hope this is the year we can FINALLY pay off my credit card!
  • I hope we can save up the money we want to do the things we want in the next year (new car, special trip for our 10th anniversary, family vacation in the summer, baby #2) ...Although, with what I was thinking just before this, that may be tricky!
  • I wish my car had air-conditioning.
  • I wish St. Louis wasn't so muggy and hot in August...well, actually ever...
  • No matter what it may seem, I hope people know that I am SO happy, and very aware of how blessed and lucky I am:)!

Wow! So, maybe THAT'S why I woke up so early this morning...
