FFF & FF55...
Susanne at Living to Tell the Story hosts Friday Fave Five in which we share our five favorite things from the past week. If you would like to play along just post your 5, link back to Susanne and visit her to see who else is playin'!If I continue to play Friday's Fave Five, I'm really going to have to quit blogging the rest of the week! It seems I have a tendency to actually SHARE the best moments of my life on a daily basis on this blog! This is a dilemma I guess... Well... let me see what I can eek out of this really incredibly boring week I've had!
1. I finally finished reading Same Kind of Different as Me. What a fabulous story! Everyone and his brother told me I needed to read it and I had such a HARD time getting into it, but once I did -- WOW! I would love to be able to make THAT kind of difference in someone's life! Just amazing!
2. I had a surprise visit from my Mathew yesterday. I love it when my kids just show up without warning! Truly... it just feels right! Totally brightens my day! He just visited for an hour or so and then headed on his way - had some things to do in the county...
3. I know I DID already mention it this week -- but you know ... Sunday was Father's Day and we had CRABS! How can I NOT mention CRABS as being one of my favorite things of the week??? I can't. It simply bears repeating. That's all! Oh... and we had a dozen + a couple left over. Dennis came home and picked them Monday night and I made a hot crab DIP! YUMMMMM! It was sooo good!
4. Oh! Bible Study Monday night! I know... I know ... I always love Bible study. But I am REALLY enjoying this study on Judges - and I am learning SO much! And this past week I had a really bad time coming up with all the answers - which usually I don't have much trouble unless I have to relate it to something in my past! LOL! *rolls eyes*... Cuz then I have to try to remember my past! But I knew I was gonna LEARN at our discussion this week - because I sure didn't learn while I was reading and trying to answer those questions at home! And the group did a GREAT job of gettin' me back on track! THAT is what I LOVE about Bible study! So many minds coming together and sharing God's Word... and meaning.
5. While I was out shopping for VBS supplies, I found some copper model car paint! I have been trying to find some since back when I was re-doing my whole downstairs! Remember I wanted to paint my trunk? *blush* Oooops! Maybe I never shared that whole debacle! It was ONE of my projects that never got finished. Because I had found this really awesome copper spray paint that looked like hammered metal -- and I wanted all the bands on the trunk and all the metal work to have that look! So I sprayed it all... and then I started painting the trunk. Well... to try to paint the TRUNK around all that stuff was NOT working... so I ended up deciding I was just going to have to spray the whole trunk IT's color first and then find something else that I would be happy with to brush paint the bands and metal parts. But I still wanted copper. And I found some copper acrylic paint - but it was just too thin -- it would have taken me a dozen coats to get it right! NOT!!! So anyway... this week I finally found some paint that I think will DO the trick! I'm so excited! Once I have VBS pretty well squared away, I will start working on that!
Hey! I did it! :)
Now for the next bit....

Our local high school was having a dance. The PTA was to hire the band. They scouted around and came up with one that was perfect. The members were young but talented and they played a nice mix of music. But the principal said "NO". Too much? No. "Sadly", he explained, "we can't buy Contraband!"
