Timing is everything

I was sick last week.

Yes, all week long. Friday and Saturday were the worst days. Spent them doing nothing but laying in bed feeling sorry for myself. I was truly pathetic!

I missed Marilyn and Joel's final indoor soccer game Friday night. Apparently, it was one of the best all year. Joel usually is in the goal all of the game, but since this was the last one, he got to "come out of goal" for the last 10 minutes.

And he scored 2 goals!

One of them was a reverse kick for GOOOOOOAAAAALLLL!!

And they won by 2 goals!!!

And Marilyn played the last 40 seconds of the game as goalie!!!!

And they had a ice cream party afterward!!!!!

Here are a couple pictures Brian took of the team.



Self pity is a horrible thing, isn't it.

Well, I am feeling better now. PTL ~ I am too busy this week to be sick. The kids are doing their annual standardized testing today and tomorrow. We are watching a baby on Thursday for family. Friday and Saturday is the bi-annual Mothers of Twins sale. Sunday is RESURRECTION DAY (or Easter if you prefer) and I am in charge of the nursery at church. I would also like to squeeze in watching Tiger Woods at the Masters this weekend :)
Busy? Absolutely. I hope all this does not sound like complaining, because I'm not.

But, things happen in life that remind you family should always be your #1 priority. My 96 yr. old Grandma Ruth is in the hospital. She was admitted late Sunday night. Tomorrow night after Brian gets off work we will travel 1 1/2 hours to visit her. I hope the doctors will be able to help her, but I am not convinced. Only God knows how much longer she has left on this earth. What I can pray for is that her last days here will be comfortable, however much longer that might be.

My schedule, however busy it is, will change according to my priorities.

And my priorities are, and will always be, my family.

If I am healthy, that is!
