I am so glad that I got through the major part of my puberty without having major acne issues. Some of the people I went to school with were pretty bad. The most famous acne treatment out was in everyone’s bookbag. I had minimal acne attacks, mostly the one right smack in the middle of my forehead! Why oh why that one had to always be a nuisance I will never understand. Most of the time people would joke that I looked hindu with that thing on my face. Kids can be so cruel

I didn’t even remember Wednesday or Thursday because it was Tuesday and now it’s Friday. I’m wondering where my days have gone so quickly. I think it has a lot to do with the fact that my husband had off on Wednesday, which hardly ever happens unless he is on vacation. Totally weird week. I am kind of glad it’s over, though. It wasn’t an easy one by any means.

142 pounds. yeah. I lost 20 pounds in less than 2 months. How? I am on the stress diet. Being stressed out makes me stop eating like I was and BAM instant weight loss.

I must say, even though I don’t feel that great I look FABULOUS.

So we did attend church yesterday. It was really good. I enjoyed the pastor. He reminds me of one we had a few years back, but with more gusto. The people were still very nice. I saw a few people from our own neighborhood. We attended early enough that we both got to go to the Sunday school before church started. He had a blast. I was happy to find other people that are adults to talk to HAHA. One of them homeschools like I do. She is on her last of 4 children.

They finished the play they started the other day about Jesus and the 3 days to resurrection. It was pretty good. They worked well with what they had. My son was excited to see Jesus was risen, but then he was bolting for the door. He isn’t used to sitting in church like that. He is used to having kids church. Since it was Easter Sunday, all the kids were in the sanctuary. Next Sunday he will have a better time, I am sure.

I see places in the church that I could be of use, too. They seem to need some more people for their worship team. I found myself wishing that I could be more like a wall sconce of the church. Pretty on the wall, no one really notices, and serving a silent function. The way God has made me, though, that would never happen. I am always looking for the places I am needed in the church with my specific gifts. I am just waiting on the Lord to lead me to the places He wants me to be. So far, He has called me to this church. God only knows what’s next.

I am planning on going to the new church today. I wonder if they will have popcorn machines set up in the back for snack while people watch the play. It does seem like that church would think of something like that, though. Church doesn’t start for another 2 hours and I could be asleep, but I am not. I have already been up for over an hour.

My family is having Easter dinner at my cousin’s house. His family at his mother’s house. I am probably going to make an appearance at my cousin’s while he makes one at his mother’s. Then we will come back here and be done with Easter festivities.

Happy Resurrection Day!
