internet woes

We have been having some serious internet issues.  There are already issues that are just a part of our normal service but for the last few weeks it has been ridiculous.  Luckily we were on vacation last week and could connect at the apartment we were staying in.  But I have to say that not having internet really makes me feel disconnected.  Although on the plus side of things, I am much more productive without the distraction of blogs and FB.  But yay, things seem to be back to 'normal'.

Before our internet issues I had started a post about some things that God was teaching me, but I just couldn't formulate it into the right words.  There were a lot of feelings and revelations that I couldn't express fully and every time I reread what I wrote it just seemed silly and unimportant.  So, I may continue to work on it or start over but God is doing some wonderful things in my heart.  I love how GREAT He is!

As and alternative, just for some fun Friday reading, I thought I would give some funny confessions.  Despite my attempt to be deep at times my mind is very often filled with silliness and things that would make most of you remember just how absurd I really am.  So here it goes.

1.  I quite often dream of starting the boys learning musical instruments.  Now.  This is in my hopes of them becoming a 'Hanson' type brother band and earning their own money for college.  I even sometimes try to think of catchy band names.  Nothing good yet so suggestions are welcome.

2.  While we were in Bangkok one of the three English TV channels would play episodes of One Tree Hill.  That was never a show that I was interested in before but I kinda liked it.  Last week we found the first 5 seasons on DVD.  I'm now watching season 1.  It's exaggerated High School drama but for some reason I'm enjoying it.  If you watch now, don't ruin it for me.  Although I have looked at the Wikipedia page on the show and know a little bit about what the future holds for these Tree Hill, NC teenagers.

3.  I turn 30 in exactly 2 days and I feel like a little kid.  I'm celebrating all weekend in several ways and milking it to the max.  Stan says I'm getting carried away.  To be honest, I don't care.  Let the fun begin!
