what a good show - although season 4 and 5 are my fav :) -

'Just keep swimming' i think is my words of wisdom today!

wow a lot has gone through my head this month, one being that although being single is fantastic its very dangerous cos all i do is watch tv when im in :s which is making me lazy....hmmm!!!!!

Went to the soul survivor in watford, am always quite reluctant in going and I think i figured out why - I dont want to look weak, and sometimes during these things when they ask you to go up to the front I think that people will go -Oooh she has problems! hehe. Anyway....The guy speaking was fantastic, the music was fantastic, it was purely about God and his voice and im so glad we all went. We all had to sort stuff out, for me it was realising that just because things are ticking away nicely doesnt mean that I'm all sorted with God. The dude was talking about Jacob and his wrestling with God. he was saying that its ok to be a loser (like jacob in the end)because God is the winner, and as we are with God..... he also mentioned that God struck jacob's hip and the idea of jacob then having to rely on a crutch (so to speak) and how as people we can get quite controlling of our lives and that God needs to be our crutch. How I apply this is easier said than done...im still working on that, but something was started on sunday, so that was cool :)

I am currently on a break this week! yay, back at home with mum and dad which has been very nice. Brought my laptop up with me so I can work on some stuff. went for a walk kinda along the beach, and a swim at the local pool - have not done that for ages!! like 6,7 yrs or so!!hehe, my arms were aching sooo much!

Slightly nervous about what I am going to go back to on fri....we have started out holiday club planning, and am organising two weekends away, so my week will include the normal stuff plus writing dramas, reg forms, etc! eeek, but we love it!! lol




taken at christmas time - dad and chloe, not a great quality photo, but its really cute!!

what a great programe - sure its slighlty unrealistic, but it does keep you on your toes!

So whats been going on, lots of politics, more than I thought I would get here, am developing a thick skin and quickly! but its been going well - My review went well, had some great reports - it was a little embarassing!! some people continued to be negative and petty which is draining, but things are ok.

36 hours till ground zero - our church coming together, for a 'celebration' I am really looking forward to it think it will be great time for everyone! we can grow stronger this way i think, so we will see who turns up!

We have a social tonight, dvd and pizza night, which is quite good as its been busy lately.
Have started the after school club - 17 of them! Eeek, we are doing creation which has proved to be a good start!
Went to a writers meeting for SU yesterday as well, and they are starting up new bible reading notes for the 'OneUp' age, called SUBmerge and I will be writing in it! How cool is that!! look out here I come! hehe

We are going bowling this weekend as well with the young people which again is great - its good to have these times away from the church buildings and just mess around!

Leave a message so I know there are some people out there who care -if anything answer this question - who would win out of a fight between spiderman and inspector gadget??? it has been an ongoing debate....hehe
