C is for Cherries.

As I sit here writing I am munching on a wonderfully sweet summer snack. A handful of cold ripe cherries goes a long way in satisfying that sweet flavor on a hot summer afternoon. No one else in my family likes cherries, so I only buy a few at a time. But each summer as the price on cherries gets a little more affordable, I can’t wait to savor the flavor.

B is for Broken Collar Bone.

My son’s first day at church camp this year, he collided with another kid on the basketball court and ended up with a broken collar bone! I met my husband half way and brought my son home. He threw up the whole way home, due to the pain medication on an empty stomach. He rested all day while I called around trying to get an appointment with an orthopedic for a second opinion on whether he needs surgery. Could not get him in until next Monday! So my son said he wanted to go back to camp. Our doctor came by to check him out and look at the x rays. She said he might as well go back to camp than lay around here miserable all week. So Monday, we will find out if his broken collar bone needs surgery.

A is for All Alone.

With my family gone for a week, there are lots of folks who think I am enjoying my time all alone. Not so much. I have a lonely feeling. Though I know I will get caught up on blogging and reading and maybe getting school ready. But the one thing that haunts me is what my daughter said this morning. She said I will be glad they are all gone, since all I do is gripe about how they never do anything right. Wow. I guess I need to spend my time all alone readjusting my attitude!

Z is for Zero.

Which is about how much brain I feel I have working right now. I have been helping put together a summer program for our church kids. It is my fourth year to help with this. It should be running rather smoothly. But I keep dropping the ball on details and things I was supposed to have done to help things come together. I know it will all work out, but I just have so much on my plate that I feel my brain is working on zero power!

Y is for Year End.

At least it is the year end for the public school system. Kids and teachers alike are gearing up for the summer holiday months. Excitement is in the air. Kids are having lots of “fun” days at school. Teachers are not assigning homework. Everyone seems fairly giddy at the school year’s end!

X is for eXhibition displays.

It’s pretty exciting to walk in to a conference or trade show and see all the cool stuff there is to take in that day or weekend. It’s like a kid walking in to a circus or a fair. Taking in all the eye catching decor-streamers, banners, flags, lights, displays and especially the
custom exhibition displays. Seeing what is being displayed is an exciting feeling that draws you in to the whole experience and creates excitement over the upcoming ideas and projects.

And just knowing potential clients are catching a glimpse of what you have to offer is a great feeling. At exhibition displays australia you can get exactly what you are looking for to rise above the crowd and get noticed. You can call for a quote. And if they don’t have exactly what you are looking for, tell them. They are always open to new ideas and adding new eXhibition displays.

W is for Writing.

I have found that writing is a great release for many people of all ages. I like to write in my blogs and in my journal. My kids have used their own journals as places of release. These are safe places to write down anything they want without fear of being reprimanded. It seems to release the tension and stress just to be able to write down what they are feeling. Writing seems to be a good stress outlet.

V is for Vacation.

I have been wanting to take the kids on a special vacation ever since we went on a cruise. I know the kids would love it! It is so relaxing and lots of fun. But it is also expensive. We only have a couple more years til our son leaves home and I would really like to do this before he leaves. I just don’t know between all the money and time we spend on regular activities if we will be able to plan such an extravagant vacation.

U is for Undecided.

I am undecided as to where I want to go eat for Mother’s Day. I don’t normally like to eat out but my husband doesn’t want to cook and doesn’t want me to have to cook. So I am not sure just what I want. I thought about the Steak House we enjoyed on Valentine’s. That was really good. Or maybe a new Italian place nearby. It looks good too. So I am still undecided but I need to hurry and choose so we can hopefully get a reservation.
