It’s a busy week!! The ladies’ newsletter needs to be printed tomorrow (I’m almost done), invitations for the ladies’ luncheon need to be completed before Sunday, I need to make tickets…..

Good news is that some ladies’ got together and helped me complete the little decorations for the centerpieces this week. What a relief!

Jason leaves to work at a Christian camp in CA Saturday — he’ll be gone til August. Jesse goes to camp Monday and desperately needed some pants — his legs are the fastest growing part of him and it’s hard to keep him in pats that cover his ankles. He’s 13, and I had to go to the men’s department for some of his things today. His inseam is the same as his brothers’ and dad’s! (He was thrilled.) But he’s skinny, so I had to find the smallest size men’s pants.

But — it ought to be really quiet next week!! And I should be able to get everything else done for the luncheon in good time. But this week with decorations, invitations, nailing things down with the caterer, the newsletter, and getting kids ready for camp kind of snowballed on me. I don’t know if I will do my usual Friday and Saturday postings — just depends on how tomorrow goes. I may post but have to wait to visit people. I am keeping up with Bloglines but not much else.

Oh! I won a book in one of Katrina’s give-aways! I think that is the first thing I’ve won through a blog.

I wanted to share some things I’ve seen here and there that you might enjoy.

Rob at ivman’s blague (the iv stands for “instant vacation”) has some funny computer error messages listed. Be sure and look at the name of the error message across the top as well as the buttons. One of my favorites: “User error. Replace user.”

Everyday is a Holiday and house wren studio has some wonderful eye candy!

On a serious note, there are some demonstrations and protests in Venezuela over Chavez’s non-renewal of a TV station’s license, if I understand it correctly. Police have set tear gas off during peaceful demonstrations and one student has died. Jungle Mom has been posting updates about the situation and I am sure would appreciate your prayers not only for this current situation but for Venezuela in general. Freedoms are eroding there very quickly.

Seems like there was one other thing I was going to share, but I can’t remember what it was now…. guess I’ll save it for another time if it comes back to me. 🙂
