Bad Day
My purse got stolen yesterday at Wal-Mart. We were in McDonald’s; we paid for the food, ate, and then went shopping. I put everything on the counter, and then looked down where my purse should've been. It was gone. I thought maybe the boys took it and threw it somewhere. I don't know what happened to it. Someone did take it though. No one turned it in. So, I had to call my mom collect, because my husband is in New Hampshire right now on business. He has our only cell phone. My dad came and got us. He's always the one to rescue us in a crisis. He's used to that, being he's a retired Sheriff. Anyhow, we go home, ask my neighbor for the spare key I gave her. My dad won't let us go in the house. He has to check it first. You know, in case the people that stole my purse were smart enough to look at my address on my license, and notice that my keys were also in the purse. We were safe. Luckily, my husband left his set of keys here. Now I can still drive. I can't do anything crazy though, I still don't have my license. I called the bank, to cancel my checkbook, and atm card. I called Target to get a new card. I called the DMV, and AAA. My dad put new locks on my door. That was fun, not! He fell asleep while trying to put the new locks on. He's a Diabetic. He'd been running around all day with everyone. He forgot to eat. I made him lay on the couch, and I made him a sandwich. He wouldn't wake up. I just let him sleep for a little bit, it was time for his nap. When he kind of woke up, his eyes were closed, but he was eating the sandwich. Then the bear finally came out of his cave. He was a tiny bit grouchy. But the door got finished. Hey, it was either my dad doing it, or Jose the fix it man, that doesn't really fix things. He just makes it worse.

Picking up the slack
These people that are leaving our church are also leaving behind some duties that usually everybody takes turns doing. So, we got an e-mail today from the Secretary at church. It said that they need volunteers to help with nursery, and kids praise teachers, etc. Yeah, they didn't really explain why they needed help. I think the word got around pretty quickly. I'm fine with helping out. I'm just not very happy about the way that they're leaving. Some might think God is weeding out the problem makers. I was kind of thinking that He was making our church dissapear. A lot of people have left our church in the past year. It's just a little scary. I know that God has a plan for us where ever we go to church. Maybe we should just make Joshua's wildest dream come true and become Missionaries in Mexico. He actually said that that's what he wanted to do while we were there. It made my heart so happy to hear him say that. He said that he wanted to help them because they were so poor, and he wanted to make them not be poor anymore. He said he wanted to build them church's and houses. Why can't we all think like you Joshua.

No more Drama!
There's been drama at our church lately between some people that we know. I just don't think that church is the place to start arguing with someone. Go home, and call them on the phone. It's that simple. I didn't personally wittness any of this happening. We heard it through the grape vine. It's very petty to me. You're grown adults, people! Act like it! Well, I think one side of the party was trying to be mature about the whole thing. The other side was not. I think that losing our pastor has put a damper on some people. There's a lot going on that's from a long time ago. It goes way deep. So, the party that wasn't being very mature, is leaving our church. That's nice. Way to deal with the problem. Just run away. That's great. Whatever. Better luck to the next Shmoe's that have to deal with you.
