we are going to mexico today! (yay!) we are all sick, sans noah. so we are banking on divine healing and sustenance for the weekend. anyway, set my alarm clock for the ungodly hour of 5 am. it went off like a good little alarm clock. i'm in the middle of conditioning my hair and Trevor comes in and says, "Is it really 4 right now?" and sure enough, the trusty little alarm clock was set to the wrong time. drats!
oh well. adios mi amigos.

friday
mood: foggy from a head cold
listening to: the clock tic-toc-tic-toc
last read: my fundraising page!
just dropped off jack with the inlaws so he doesnt have to go to Mexico with us. on my drive to and fro, i saw two humorous signs:
"Adult Kickball League" it contained contact info and i think a website. these signs were posted every couple hundred feet or so
"Adult flag football 5 on 5" this sign was on the opposite side of the freeway and was a completely different association than the kickball league.
just thought it was funny.
maybe i should start an adult dodgeball league. (that's trevor's joke...)

Ohhhh Mexico
mood: humored
listeing to: Joni Mitchell
last read: directions to the orphanage in mexico that trevor, noah, myself and 117 other RCCers are going to this weekend.
i laughed at these directions:
Take the I-5 to the Mexican border south of San Diego at the Tijuana crossing.
After you cross the border, follow the signs to the Ensenada/Rosarito Toll Road - also called the scenic route (very well marked).
About 45 min. from the border & 20 min. past the second toll booth you will see the Hotel. Take the off ramp in front of the Hotel and turn left.
You are now heading south on the "free" road. About 4 miles south you will drop into a canyon and see the town of *** and a large bridge. Just before the bridge, turn left onto a dirt road.
TheOrphanage is 1½ miles (2 km) up the dirt road. Drive carefully and have a great trip!
what the heck are we getting ourselves into?!?! gotta love it?

friday!
mood: superb
listening to: summertime by brianna taylor. it's my current "it" song. the lyrics are totally un-applicable to my life, but i can't get past the voice and the melody. music man, it sure makes the world go round for me.
last read: kimi's blog
been a long week--three meetings, two church-y events. poor little jack jack was in the nursery i think 4 or 5 times this week already and we have two more to go =(. i am so looking forward to simplifying. just gotta fulfill some commitments first.
had a conversation with a friend last night that made me sad at society and our trend to progress towards as little human interaction as possible. (i laugh at myself expressing this on a blog!) anyway, an unfortunate event occurred over "texting" and it left me thinking, really? seriously? how many more times will people be hurt over convenience? i know i am not innocent in this. but it made me more aware.
gotta go get the kiddo! happy friday to you all!

Oy Vay
mood: peachy keen jelly bean
listening to: noah play wii bowling
last read: online posting about how to deal with a 15 month old who hits and throw
it has begun-- we have to actually start parenting and molding jack instead of merely maintaining life and health. trevor got a talking to as he picked up jack from the nursery after church tonight. jack, and i believe every word of it, was throwing toys at and hitting the other kids. =(. not fair. surely i thought we had a good three months until we had to kick into legitimate parent mode.
this one. this baby jack jack is going to do me in. i know it. but i couldn't love him any more!

here i am
mood: good
listening to: trevor play "in my life" on his gee-tar.
last read: alliwoo's comment about me being sucked into the abyss--the answer is yes!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! 2009 is gonna be good. i can feel it. we rang in the new year with our family of friends. a good time had by all.
Christmas was great. i hosted for the first time ever. i felt like i was doing dishes for a week straight. it was great to have the house filled with family. we got a wii from my mom! i can rock mariokart like no one's biznaz! ok... not really, but i was addicted for a couple days.
the best part of the holidays was taking time off from responsibility! (other than the whole wife and mother thing.) it was rejeuventating to focus on my boys, the season, family and friends.
but alas, life goes on and responsibility creeps back to my doorstep. i have a great peace about it all though. i know Who is in control and my role and responsibility in it all ("it all" being the near future--who knows whats way ahead?!?!?) i am looking forward to getting back into a bible study--just not sure which one yet.
anway... i think i am rambling, so i will bid you all adieu.
goodnight and goodluck!
