long weekend recap

So what's a girl to do with a long weekend?
I was busy Friday, Saturday and Sunday.. But Monday I had a Sabbath day. I did very little. The allergens are in the air. :(  I did practice my story for ASL and did some more transcription of the Draft to Mastery project. On Sunday night, I watched "The Godfather" for the first time. It was better than I expected. (yes it was part homework(kind of)

I have several practicum jobs coming up, and I am excited about some of the amazing opportunities. The more experience the better when its time to test.

Plus it was just Mom, Dad and I the entire weekend. It was quiet in the house. I love my niece and nephew, but it was awesome to have it totally quiet.

Thoughts on Balance

Today is almost done. Dinner is done and everyone has eaten. Dad is doing the dishes, my hubby is getting ready for work, mom is relaxing in the recliner and George is laying on the floor guarding mom. This is the 1st time I have gotten on the computer today. I have checked FB and email. I wasn't going to write anything today but I figure if I don't I will get out of the habit. After all....

"We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit."-Aristotle

Since I want to eventually excel, I will have to work at it. I was going to write down a kids sermon idea but decided that it was not what was really on my mind. 

I want to take a few minutes to write about balance, as far as I can see there are 3 parts to balance (feel free to disagree) there is: your head(mind), your heart (spiritual/emotional) and physically(body).

 I am in the process of relearning that balance is very important. I have been working on the mental part( I am learning new stuff)  and I am in the process of training for a 5k so my body is in the physical  process but.... the heart(spiritual ) part? 

 Well I need to focus more on it. 

 Am I meeting my spiritual needs? Honestly? NO. "Well what are you going to do about it?"   I have a 3 step plan:

1: Pray

2 :Find Substitutes teachers for youth and Sunday school

3 :Find a Bible study that doesn't meet on Sundays that I can attend and learn from someone with more knowledge than me.

Ok, 4th Step - Let God figure out the rest. 

Thanks for taking a glance, I have some ideas peculating but I need to think them out some before I post them here. Hang in there.
