Grump, Grump, Grump

(singing) Oh, I'm a grump, grump, grump. Don't bother me, I'll thummmmpppp...... yooouuuu!

Wow, I've been grumpy lately. I'm tired and hungry, and just found out Tony is flying to Guatemala on an airline that sounds like a fast food!!! TACA airlines.

"No, no, no, you can't fly on TACO airlines! Fergitaboutit!"

That's my rule, you know. Do not fly on any airline that sounds like food, laundry detergent or a strange disease.

Anyhoo, I'm laughing at myself. I'm going to aerobics classes which make me tired and hungry, but I'm still not losing weight. Grrr. It's a Commie plot, I tell you, a Commie plot. They are infusing my food with extra fast grams.

I'm sure it's not my french fry cravings or that I looove potato chips. Hehe! Seriously, I don't eat them all that much. Maybe once a week. Guess that's enough to shoot 4 hours of aerobic exercise in to booty.

We had a really great Fire Dweller prayer meeting last night, so I should be feeling grand. I know I will. God is good! The meeting ran until almost 11 p.m., then a few of us prayed with a couple and ministered to them for over an hour. So, by the time we got home, had a bite and wound down, it was 3 a.m. before we went to bed.

I suppose the Lord is getting at deeper issues with me these days. Issues of self. Issues of loving others no matter what. I can take a lesson from my Dad on this.

I need to dry my hair so I can go to lunch with Tony (no fries!) and drop him off at church.

Love and peace to all!

That's always interesting when the Lord does that isn't it? He is doing the same with me.

Rachel, I know I'm late in chiming in on this post. Maybe it's just from a super long day at the computer, going eight hours w/o talking [out loud - characters, excluded!], but I laughed out loud when I read the line about TACA airlines. The sound of my own voice startled me, but boy, did it feel good!

Thanks - your posts are inspiring.

Love ya,
