Got To Be The One

I'm all about taking ideas from my buddies today. The newest one comes from Krisstudly.

Go to Wikipedia and look up your birth day (excluding the year). List three neat facts, three births and three deaths in your journal, including the year.

So, Krisstudly's only said 2 deaths and 2 births...but I wanted the number to be the same for all of them. I also decided to only list things that have happened in my life time.

In other news, I did a great job of doing NONE of my housework today. I'll be up at the crack of dawn, don't worry. I've been dreading dealing with Mom's family. Then it hit me today, that tomorrow is a Sunday. No nap! EEKKKK! Not cool! We should only have about 20-27 people tomorrow. YAY!

God is good, all the time. All the time, God is good!
