Recently, Matt, Sierra and I went a few days without technology (ok, Matt HAD to use his computer at work, but did not do any surfing or anything like it).
I am such a big status updater, I thought it would be funny to tally what my status updates may have been during this time.
* Daniel is doing such a great job wearing his patch.
* starting an interesting, in-depth study of Romans today. (Thursday)
* our hearts grieve over recent layoffs at our church -- praying.
* had fun without computer distractions...made cards to put in the decorated tin for my sister's birthday...now well over 2 weeks late.
* loving the drop off for Sierra's new school...less than ten minutes round trip.
* another task complete w/out computer and tv distraction....craft room cleaned up.
* helped Daniel pick out toys to sell in our Saturday garage sale...his money to go towards a cool new toy. (addendum...Daniel got to buy himself the black spider man suit).
* loving the constant sound of my ipod on shuffle...though one of David Crowder's songs has played and replayed about 5 times.
* finishing a book that is not too interesting, but I have to finish to see if I am right. (I was)
* having sweet times praying for those in community, nation, church family and friends.
* shopping for houses in North Carolina. No, we are not moving...yet....though it is not outside the realm of possibility.
* is so proud of my budding missionary who loves church both on Sundays and Wednesdays and wants to go spread Jesus around.
* watching my husband nod off as I write this.
* is proud of my daughter who wants to extend our little fast past these few days. (no, it did not last)
* finding it funny that Daniel has to watch movies on our little portable dvd player to avoid distraction for us.
* looking forward to getting my and Sierra's hair cut on Saturday followed by lunch at Cheesecake Factory.
* finally mailing my sister's birthday present on Friday...AND finally mailing my 12-inch long braid to Locks of Love...AND mailing Sierra's best friend who lives in Africa the DS games she left in our car. (YES, I did it...I mailed all the above).

What is up with North Carolina?!!? Details, details, please!
lol...we want to move there...Matt craves living in a state with seasons as does Sierra.
Not sure if/when we will do it. Matt just got stuck working on the Continental Airlines team which is based here (duh) and they do not want anyone working remotely. So.........
Oh, I absolutely agree with Matt, one day I would love to live where there are actually four seasons! N. Carolina is beautiful, I took a business trip there once.
But, Houston is not so bad either, there are many positives about it. The weather isn't one of them.
North Carolina?! All I have to say is, i think Sierra would be traumatized to have two bffs live so far away! And then the counselling Amber would require... And then who would I hang out with at church...
Glad you are just dreaming! :)
