Favorite Coloring Board

We have a white board in our Sunday school class at church. Last night Emily and her friend Olivia entertained themselves writing on the board. Emily even attempted to color Olivia's shirt!

The gas lines are still really long in Atlanta. I found gas for my car Friday morning and the line wasn't too long since most people were at work. Joe needed gas Saturday afternoon before he drove back to work today, so we got online to see what gas stations had gas and then I went in search of it while Joe stayed at home with Emily. I waited in line an hour and a half to fill up Joe's car!!!! They are predicting another couple of weeks before the availability of gas is back to normal in Atlanta! So all you folks in other towns, enjoy the luxury of pulling up to a gas station and filling up : ) I wish I had my camera with me on Saturday to capture the long line I was in. It was so long that I couldn't even see the gas station for the first half hour in line. I was entertained by one car that thought he could cut in line (some goofball left a gap in the line). About 5 people got out of their cars and first stopped to yell at the truck that left the gap and then proceeded to yell at the person that THOUGHT he could cut in front of about 30 cars . . . I don't know what he was thinking. He stuck it out for about 5 minutes . . . and then I guess he finally realized that the people outside his window weren't going to give up yelling at him and banging on his window, so he finally pulled away. I had a good laugh. I went over my Children's worship lesson plan and read my People magazine while waiting in line . . . quality reading time well spent : )

When you're a mom, you take the quiet time however you can get it! I guess there is a benefit to living in a small town!
