Amuck, Amuck, Amuck

Do you just every have one of those days where you brain is running full steam ahead and you just don't seem to be able to stop it? Then welcome to my world!

It is only 10:37 a.m. and so far these are just a few of the things that have been running through my head:

YAY it's Friday - really wonder what I am going to wear to shoot the wedding -What to wear today - bought new shirt - looks like I'm 12 in it - o well - doesn't need ironing - Should I wear capri pants of goucho - did I put hair glue on my hair - Need to do the dishes before the housekeeper comes, should I wear gold sandals - hurry and get in the car - did I get my cell phone - stop and get a coke - why is this girl giving me a thank you gift, just smile - did I forget something- if I had lots of money I would build my own subdivision - make a note streets, curbs, sidewalks a must - need to stop at cleaners - Precious Jesus hold my hand I need thee every hour dah, dah, dah (singing) - did I run that stop sign - wish I could buy Scott a nice truck - I should name the street Memory Lane - did I get my cell phone - if I had lots of money I would help out everybody I know, give it all away, maybe buy some land - man I just missed my exit - why do people day dream - can I exit here - where to park - did I get my cell phone - if I had lots of money, there's a parking place - etc, etc, etc, - my gosh my head is hurting and this crazy brain of mine won't stop - I wonder if there is a drug to help put your thoughts in some kind of order - Need to look into discovering/making some kind of drug for this - Do you suppose your head can explode if your thoughts stop all at once - man that would be a mess - if God hears all these thoughts does it drive him as crazy as it does me - I really love the term hedge of protection sure could use one for my brain you know so it won't explode if it stops all at once - what's this clients name-Betty, Besty, I'll just call her mam - answer the phone - I need to go to the potty - Besty yes that's it - etc, etc, etc. Amuck, Amuck, Amuck - where did that come from - etc, etc, etc.- maybe if someone would just slap me I would finally land back on earth - does the Twilight Zone really exist - only in my head - Precious Jesus take my hand dah, dah, dah - One way Jesus dah, dah, dah, - I should write a song and just use the word dah, dah, dah - country music or maybe southern gospel - I sure would like to go to the big O - YAY it's Friday, man I need to go to the potty, etc, etc etc . . . .

And as the morning goes on my brain hasn't slowed down but I remember where Amuck, Amuck, Amuck came from - the movie Hocus Pocus:



Help my brain is running AMUCK AMUCK AMUCK and it won't stop.

AMUCK, AMUCK, AMUCK

Man I need to go to the potty!

Things of the Past

Well I guess that blogging has become a thing of the past and I must admit it makes me sad. I don't get to talk to you ladies very much and blogging was a great way of keeping up with you and your family, your coming and goings, your victories and your struggles, and everything else that was going on with you. Best of all it was a fantastic way to hear from your hearts.

I know that I don't blog much, but I check out blogspot (and will continue to do so) daily. I love reading Brandi, Rachel and Annie's writings and hope they will continue to keep posting. I promise I am going to get better at blogging as well.

So ladies, please continue writing!!!! I love you all.

Ok Fran - I am doing this just to help you out -

Ever Leigh Robinson

I have lots to blog about, and many things I should share, but my heart is so blessed today to share anything but this would be a shame. God gave his very best to me this week and all the other news can just take a backseat to this.

Ever Leigh Robinson was born March 5th at 12:51 pm, she is 19" longs and has stolen my heart.

Thank you God for such a wonderful blessing.

QUICK UPDATE

I'm still here! Bet you're glad to know that! I have been so busy with life in general and I'm loving it. Home is great, life is great, photography is great, and my God is great! I am looking forward to the things that God is already doing this year - and I am believing that they will only get better as the year goes on.

I am still in the process of trying to get my portfolio together, so if I haven't contacted you yet, know that you are on my list (all of you Brandi, Fran, Pam, and everyone else)to have pictures made. I am finishing up Erica's wedding (which by the way was to awesome for words)and then I will be making calls. Hope you're all ready. I have found some really unique places to shot and I am looking forward to putting this portfolio together.

Now on to other things - tax season is here again (UGH!) - but I am happy to be employeed, even though my heart wants to be retired. God knows my heart on this and He already has it worked out, so I just have to wait for His timing - not mine - which is like asking a child to wait on that cookie until after supper! It seems like it takes FOREVER. But in the end, I know it is going to be worth it.

As I ramble on - I am excited that IGroups and WOW are starting back up. I truly miss everyone when we are off like this - and with the new year comes the excitement of a new BFW - And speaking of excitement - Julie and Jeff are getting married on March 14th. Isn't it amazing how God works - you pray and pray for something and then when it happens, you are so surprised it nearly knocks your socks off. And that's just what has happened here. This guys shows up at life group meets Julie, and the next thing you know, he is asking to date our daughter, WHAM-BAM turn around three times and, he is asking to marry our daughter. Nothing like God's timing! And the wedding is on. You know how much I love the wedding thing, the only problem is we need a photographer. Doesn't that sound funny? So if any of you are interested in being the photographer at the wedding, let me know. Seriously, please let me know.

Well, there is so much more I could and should talk about, but I'll save that for another day. (Bet you're glad) I just wanted to say "HEY I'M STILL HERE".
