HAPPY FRIDAY, EVERYBODY!
THANK GOD IT'S FRIDAY!
Promise Six of PA:
We will enjoy a life of greater prosperity as opportunities nourished by actions will thrive and grow; money lost for late fees and penalties are now available to enjoy long postponed vacations and self care.
Have a great proactive day!

Solidarity to folks affected by Sandy, may you find the positive in this mess.
Spent yesterday running in circles. Did manage to do a lot, just not enough studying. Plan for today:
Finish the leftover studies from yesterday+ REVIEWB1, B2, RA,receipts,e-mail Dad, mail, vacuum downstairs, start wrapping Xmas giftsVitamins, kitchen cabinets,laundry (1, 2)clement ci
internet is back. was out yesterday even and this morning. It's been going out and back on.
Also, power went back on today. We were pretty good w/ the generator, but it's definitely nice to have everything working again.
i'm really struggling today. with tasks. The hourly phone check-ins have been all that's keeping me sane. Couldnt use this website net out.
I started my quiet time then read this verse
trouble is this made me think of going into business for myself. And i imagined advertising and networking as the "sowing" part and if i do that sparingly like i might if i was procrastinating then i would therefore "reap", ie earn, sparingly.
That scared me.
Ok so while i was still in the middle of this post i had the phone 1:30pm ckin. so i there decided i have to move past this and continue w/ my quiet time.
1:39pm
ok i'm glad i kept reading, cuz this hits me where i am
i dont feel enriched. So i should not feel guilty about that, but just wait for god to enrich me. And if/when he does, use those blessings to be generous to others and give to them. I would be very happy with a life in which i am blessed so that i can bless others.
145pm
i did finish my quiet time. finally. and now i have a mtg at wk in 15 min.

My first check in
Hi everyone,
Normally I don't check in here, I prefer the chatbox, but today I have to get certain tasks off my back.
T&P for Oct and NovEleanorBE's Friday list
Thanks for the thread, lennon.
So, I had a lovely time teaching yesterday - it's a class I always enjoy but this time it was extra good because I followed something I read on ms thursday (today ms friday)'s check in, about treating people with kindness at work. I think I'm pretty friendly as teachers go but going in with the thought that I would treat the students with kindness just seemed to make for a really great atmosphere. So same again today. I think I'll follow ms. in having a 'constants' list too. Thank you ms!

- get t
- get laptop in case speaker's goes wrong
