redemption, a little bit at a time

These walls are funny. First you hate 'em, then you get used to 'em. Enough time passes, you get so you depend on them. That's institutionalized.

-Red in Shawshank Redemption

More on this later.

wishlist for summer 2010

1. creation! camping, speed scrabble, david crowder, teamwork, hikes, section J!!, free hug shirts, TOTT day, nighttime fires, midnight showers, shuttle buses, newsboys, and a bunch of sitting around and talking time. (this is actually planned!)

2. summer jobs for one or more of my kids. wouldn't it be nice?

3. licenses for one or more of my kids.

4. a college visit or two with Catherine

5. complete a 5k with my ALG girls

6. reconnect with some people: heinemans (pictures! this is actually planned!), canners, CFC kids

7. read, and read, and read

8. second vacation to the beach (this is pretty unlikely, but it's a *wish*list. my sister is going at the end of july. i want to tag along.)

9. lucas blazing through a few TTU courses

10. be intentional about preparing l and c for their senior year in the very best way possible.

i also look forward to staying up half the night with friends, i want to get pedicures, and get some melanoma-free color from the sun....but i limited my list to 10.
