The PF Women Team at our Annual Team Retreat ~ 2018 Today on Seth Godin's blog, he said: It's tempting to decide to make a profit first, then invest in training, people, facilities, promotion, customer service and most of all, doing important work. In general, though, it goes the other way. Yes, it does. If you are waiting to make a profit before you do these things, in my experience you're not going to make a profit. So many organizations, ministries and churches are struggling with financial issues. I know your pain. As anyone who follows our story knows, our ministry was in a ton of debt four years ago when I came on as director. Since that time, we've gotten out of debt and turned a profit every year. God has done amazing things through out team, for which we give Him the glory! I find that what Seth is saying here is absolutely true, with one disclaimer. For Christian leaders, spiritual disciplines must always be first. Before we started inve
Thursday was Dustin's birthday...after work we went to dinner as a family and I had made him a MRSA cake as he requested...
Then on Friday it was our day off. I love my Fridays! I live for them, mostly to rest. Most of the day I stayed in my PJ's I was so exhausted. Larry and Max stayed there with me for the most part...that's always fun. We watched movies in bed.
Max lays between Larry and I and has to have one of us petting him constantly. We don't mind.
Friday night Larry and the kids went to the Celebration Church softball game where Larry and Jordan played. The team won. :) After that they came home and I had rolled out of bed and gotten showered and dressed and the five of us went to a late night showing of "In Time." The boys' friend Stephen went too. Stephen has been like a family member for the past ten years and has practically lived here at times.
On Saturday morning I went and got my first pedi since the burn. There is finally a new layer of skin and no open wounds so I could do that. It's been almost a month. Of course Mai took one took at it and said, "Deeeennnnaaaaa...whah happpeeened? Yoo o-tay?" So sweet. I am putting vitamin E and Aloe on it daily and really hope the scar fades.
Once my pedi dryed I put on my running shoes and completed day 3 of "couch to 5K". Amazingly I have done this three days this week and am still alive.
Aside from cooking a big pot of beef vegetable soup for dinner Saturday and then getting my world famous pot roast prepared to go in the crock pot for today, Saturday evening was mostly spent house cleaning. Thankfully everything for church was complete earlier in the week. Usually I'm tying up a lot of loose ends on Saturday but this was a week was different.
Today's going to be a great day at Celebration! I can't wait to see what God will do! We've been having some amazing services and I know God is ready to download something great today!
