The Mad Scientist!


Yes, I started Chemistry yesterday! *evil laugh* Yeah, well, we won't be doing any just really explosive experiments, but I do hope that it will be enjoyable enough. My sister really enjoyed Chemistry, so I'm hoping that I will too. So far it's just review of some algebra and metric units and some other things. I really do think I like the teacher so far and the class is small, so it won't be too terrible to get help if needed. The class is two hours and fifteen minutes long, so it's quite a bit longer than my Calculus class was last year.
Well, I have been kept busy lately. I've been helping out with a second grade class. I enjoy it, but it does have its challenges. The kids are really cute and look up to me as if I were the jolly green giant per se. The only main problem I seem to have is when they don't want to pay attention or talk when they're supposed to be quiet.
For now, I shall conclude with hopes of writing again soon. I hope that everything is going well for all of you and that you're being good and eating plenty of veggies! God bless!

"But the cat came back, she wouldn't stay away, she was there on the porch on the very next day..."

Yes, our loyal cat, Spunky couldn't stay away even after we'd given her away. We had given her and her four kittens to our pastor and his wife who live out in the country about six miles from here. Well, last night as Jesse and I were driving up after going over to the school for some football thing we saw her out in the yard and our chins dropped to the ground (not literally, of course!). Ah, well, what shall we do with such a cat, I wonder????? Anybody that happens to live very far away across a river want a crazy kitty by any chance?

Pictures from the Sacred Harp singing!







We had a really good turn out for the singing and it really sounded great! We had about 48 people come which was more than we thought would actually show up. We also did have some visitors come in and listen for a while. Some of the people who came for the singing stayed over for church and did seem to enjoy it. Brother Tom really did preach a good sermon!
Well, school shall be starting soon unfortunately. I start my Chemistry class in a week. It will be good though for us to go ahead and start so that we're not rushing to try to finish before H.H. starts in June.
You know, I'm really starting to enjoy driving! Used to I was just so nervous about driving that I really didn't enjoy it that much, but now that I have my own car and can drive myself places, I really rather enjoy it. I had fun driving to a friend's birthday celebration the night before the singing. We also enjoyed staying up late watching Hogan's Heroes episodes. Oh, they're just so great! I'm hoping to get the second season as soon as I can.
Well, I guess it'd be best for me to conclude! I have stuff to do tomorrow and it looks to be a busy week. Talk to you hopefully soon and God bless!

A Sacred Harp Singing!!!

We are going to be having a Sacred Harp singing here! If you don't know where here is ask around because I'm not going to reveal that over the internet unless I know you. Sorry, it's just a little bit of safety measures. Anyway, it will take place at our church on August 19th starting at 9:00 a.m. and ending around 2 0r 3 p.m. I hope a lot of ya'll can come! I'm going to fix my much-loved peanut butter chip cookies if that will bribe anybody!
Well, let me see....maybe I'll see if I can upload some more pictures today. Maybe the computer will be more cooperative.



I love this picture of Stephen because I have never seen him where his hat backwards before! He did this amazing deed while playing volleyball at CM. I think I have time for one more picture....Let's see....





Oh, yes, the infamous CAMP singing group. That was sooooo great! I shall never forget that and still catch myself singing it. Well, I must be off! Talk later and God bless!!

Well, hello!


Yes, I'm really enjoying some relaxing days of summer! Course, I don't suck my fingers while doing so. ;D The above picture is of my sleepy nephew Benjamin during Sacred Harp class one day at H.H. Nothing like leaning on Mama's lap for a pillow when you're that age! Well, would you care to see a few more pictures. *cups hand over ear* Do I hear a yea? All righty then....

This is the Ladies' ensemble led by Brother Jason that sang "Did Christ O'er Sinners Weep?" on Friday night. I must say that I believe we sounded great! Now how about some pictures from CM! The picture below was of our counsel group at CM.
Well, I may show more pictures from CM later because right now photoblogger seems to be rather stubborn about uploading some of my pictures. Anyway I hope you've enjoyed the ones I've shown! Talk to you soon!
