On my mind....

• made an "A" in my class. Yippie! Although I really feel like I did "B" work, but I'll take the "A" if the professor wants to give it. Next semester, I'm taking a course on 20th Century English Novels with a professor I know to be tough (took a summer course with him), plus 20th century literature is not my favorite, so this will not be easy! I'm more of a 18th or 19th century kinda girl. I'll probably get a head start over the break.
• The Diner has had some interesting conversations on the convergence of the old and young within the church. Got me thinking about my old church and how my senior year they started a contemporary worship service and (gasp!) the worship leader wore jeans to church! I was part of young-uns then, now I think I'm in the old guard! I don't think the issues are anything new and quite frankly the focus on how we do worship/church frustrates me a little. I understand creating a mood/environment to make worship easier, but it seems to me the mechanics are getting more focus than the purpose...that's just my opinion, feel free to disagree.
• Teaching a child to read really is easy. Slow at times and frustrating, but in the long run easier than I thought it would be.
  
• I am totally a curriculum junkie! Is there a place I can sign up to test new curriculum? That would be the perfect job for me!
