How a great day can end in sadness, but...

Wow, today was guud!!
I woke up today thinking the world was going to end and I was going to be eaten alive from being late for work...

On arrival at church, my spirits were lifted when I saw two others coming in late. After devotions chaos broke out at my table - pre-registration papers, files, highlighters, bags, etc.

What made my day good was the fact that I fasted for Holiday Club today! God kept me working hard getting the pre-registered database sorted. Mis-information, weird entries, etc forced me to call parents. When the father was the first parent name given, I spoke to the mother instead - I felt prompted that it was mothers and not fathers to contact!!

I decided to file things as I went about processing forms: preregistered -corrections; -fax/hand-in; -web.
I also made a file for new and processed registrations. erm, this is paper I'm talking about!?!

Duplicate child registrations - single registrations with a multitude of extra registrations..tough on the eyes;
- single registrations with a follow-up email..so sweet for the fingers.


The server needs a network cable, but instead of going to get one I wait for directions via sms for another task while sifting through an excel sheet. my lunch looked too good to be edible, so i handed it to someone else to keep. food wasnt an issue, even when asked if i were hungry. Registration stats kept rising. I was busy processing the 142 registrations that had come through so far. The stat online is 163. Tomorrow is D-day for registrations. I expect processing 100 new pre-registrations.
Some people may be wondering why I'm doing this - pre-registration is as far as I go with registration. On Monday, I'm with Drama, Crafts and hmmm...yes, this is tough, but I'm the registration guru in some weird way. So... that just means that I'm on standby for registration bugs/issues. I just wanna be with the children - perhaps Fred will join me each day during the tea breaks. Wacky camera guy with talking frog ventriloquist style!!!

I got a call and before I saw who it was, I realised that I forgot to tell anyone that I was not coming home till late.. I spoke to my Mom and asked her to keep supper for me.......

I have a super code for the photocopier - the guy came today and showed me more of the machine today!
Then Drama practice started without me - but when i came they only started stage work T minus 100 seconds before I got there.
that ended at 5 i think, EVERYBODY went home and i stayed - why go home to come back if i'm not gonna eat anything?? waste of good petrol...

I read the photocopier manual, tried to setup an external mail server for it and then realised i needed to have a DNS server...
7 o clock. I spoke to Andrew and got him all confused, then left him in the cold.

u believed that??

silly you...

Drama practice tonight was brilliant - I found my long lost voice!!!!!
I can be loud, VERY loud without shouting!

All was happy till I got into my car to drive home.
I was hungry and listening to good rave or whatever it is that other people call it..
I drove up the hill and missed the turnoff..almost missed the next turn off, but speed (not quick) THINKING tricked me into going through after the light went red. I broke a rule. I paid with my feelings. I felt awful. I hooted at myself for driving through a just-turned-red robot that i should have stopped at.
Turning to God I realised why - lack of nutrition causes brain to be an idiot.

God reminded me of the happy things of today - too glad that I serve God.
without God, I would have gone to bed all emo..though now I'm going to bed happy and glad!!!!!

Lastly, Alice is the norm. Barney killed it with his flavor of Sally. South Africa rocked the world with happy frozen water, GLAD-ice?!?
I searched Alice and got a song. I searched Sally and got Barney. I searched multiple spellings of Gladys and got Camel branded cigarettes!

So there you have it: Alice had the humps, Sally had the bumps and Gladys had a pack-a-day.....
