Lots of thoughts swirling in my head!

My head is just swirling with all kinds of thoughts lately. On Sunday it was hard because my parents left and that was hard on Emali and I've discovered it has been hard on me this week. On Sunday after they left we went to one of our favorite ice cream places to help Emali with her sadness - it's a place called Jeni's http://jenisicecreams.com/ they have some interesting flavors but if you're ever near one I highly recommend it! While my parents were here we went to our other favorite ice cream place (they are both within walking distance too) it is called Graeter's http://www.graeters.com/ they are both wonderful places.
Anyway, Kiefer decided he wanted to go VBS today so Alex took him to Christ Lutheran which is just down the street and they wouldn't take him they said that his class was full - Kiefer came back in tears because he really wanted to go to VBS and I looked and all the other churches around us have already done their VBS so I'm thinking about getting the stuff from the bookstore and giving him his own personal VBS. That really irritated us that they would turn someone away from VBS to me that's saying I'm sorry no you can't learn about Jesus.
We're almost at the weekend which should be a good thing but I'm not really looking forward to this weekend - I like to be able to do stuff on Saturday & Friday afternoon because I'm cooped up in the house the rest of the week - but this weekend the only thing I want to do is going shopping but as usual we're broke. I've even been looking online to see about places that are hiring the bad part is most of them are not within walking distance and I can't drive the car we have so I really feel like I'm stuck between a rock and hard place. I keep trying to keep on the up but it's getting harder and harder - oh well life goes on I guess. Maybe my next post will be on a happier note.

Wow Tina huge hugs to you.
I can't believe they would turn you away for VBS. Come on create a second class or something. Hello it isn't that hard of a concept. Poor Kiefer. Huge hugs to him too. I thought of him while we were on our flight to Florida. The one flight attendants name was Kiefer and he was funny.
Then of course the entire time we were in Florida we saw HSM things and we kept thinking of Emali.
I hope things get a little better. HUGS.
