Hello Chaos, my old friend

   As Scot becomes more involved in his new position as Youth Pastor, I'm unexpectedly finding myself with lots more to do. Between my part-time job on the internet, helping Scot with the youth ministry, Logan's soccer games, setting up the church website, and trying to raise three kids, I've found myself saying hello again to my good old friend, Chaos.

   I'm starting to wonder how I am going to handle my to-do list without it handling me. As I'm writing this my house is in disarray, not having found the time or motivation to clean up today. I suppose I could be cleaning up right now instead of writing this, but I feel it's time for a journal entry :-)

   The most chaotic part of it all is how each and every day of the week has it's own things going on, and I never really know what to expect each week. A consistent schedule would probably make it easier to organize my duties, but that's just not how life in the ministry goes.

   Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining. I love our new life in full-time ministry. I guess I just need to vent my frustration with this week. My mind has been here and there and everywhere, and I just can't get a hold of it lately. Good thing Scot and I are going to have a 'date-night' tomorrow. Grandma Connie is taking the kids for the day, so maybe I will be able to clear my head. I'm very much looking forward to it. Well, time to go get the kids dinner.

Until next time,
Karisia
