yesterday's after school program was a bit odd.  previously i had not sent anyone home, but yesterday i sent 9 ladies home.  9...in one day!  it was because they were all late.  so i had them call their parents and tell them that they were leaving graffiti and coming home-and then i escorted them out of the building.  i ended up with 2 ladies in the program at the end of the day.  think about it...i would've had 11 there yesterday with absolutely no help.  sometimes God looks out for us in unexpected ways.  i mean, i hate to send them home-i want them at the program.  but i honestly wouldn't have been able to handle all 11 ladies yesterday with no help.  blessings in disguise :)

i started out the week staying overnight out in jersey (thanks susan).  it was exciting to be in a car again and going to IHOP-rooty tooty fresh 'n fruity :)  and we finally had our first meeting at BMCC with a definite direction of where the conversation was going.  it was a great time, and we're meeting earlier next week so that their friends can join us.  did i mention, i'm not a morning person?  again, blessings in disguise :)

and the official countdown...14 days
