This is the first place I have ever been to , where people at church don't teach their children to respect the " House Of God " . ever church we have been to , their is no nursery or children's church . I they do have one , it is not for long because no one will do it . Or it is after Praise and worship . They go on about how they want people to get into the worship but let the kids run like wild children during it .
This is very upsetting to me . My husband is a Music minister and works hard to get people into the worship and presents of God , but when you have kids running everywhere , how can you . Yes , I love my kids and want them to learn to worship but in the right way . I am teaching them just as my Grandmother did me , you do not run around , scream , dance , chase each other , wave flags ,eat candy and have a little party ,when service is going on . Church is to worship God in and learn his ways . Not a place for disrespect and rebellion .
There needs to be children's classes to teach them on their level . Did you know , that now days 80% of kids that are now teens and early adults , that went to church as kids , no longer go . HMmm... could it be because no one was there to teach them and they got bored . It sure was not because people made them behave , at least not here in Arizona .
Come on people ... Children are the future !!!!!

I Don't Get It

July 31 already !!!!
Where does the time go ? I can not believe it is already the last day of July ! This year has been a blur rushing by . The scary thing is ..it is only 5 months til Christmas ! OMG!!!
I feel like a the videos you see ,with a person standing still and the crowd of people rushing by . I still have so much to do since Dad's passing . Got to help Mom go through things and have yard sales and pack up our house so we can move down with her . This will all take some time . And we still don't know what we are going to do for sure.
The fun thing is , Rob got his new Runs timer ( company car ) yesterday . It is a Titian truck . We really like but are a little worried about the gas . It is a HUGE car compared to the jeep we traded in . We have to trade this in in three years . And the good thing is , the company pays for most of it . I think we will be out $ 150 . Not bad :)
Well , that is my summer at the end . Hope things slow down a bit this Fall . And maybe I can go see Drama Mama . Or we can meet up in Tucson , next time we go .

Can You Believe This one ? !
Yesterday , Rob had to fly out of Tucson to Kentucky for work . The Company is paying for the whole trip , even for checking in luggage . He flew out on US Air ( never use them ) . As he was checking in , they informed him , he needed to pay $15 dollars to check in his suitcase . He gave then the Company credit card but it was not good enough . They said they could not take it because his name was not on the card . So , he offered cash . They would not take that . So , he offered his debit card . Guess what , they would not take that ! The lady at the counter then called over a policeman ! The officer could not believe the hard time they were giving Rob . He told Rob to call the US Air office and file a report . In the mean time , the lady at the counter asked Rob to step aside while she checked in the man behind him . This guy had two bags and they charged him $150 a bag plus another $50 . Can you believe this !
Anyway , Rob got back up to check in and the manager had the US Air office on the phone . They asked if the card was a Visa . It was , . So , they said they take payments on Visas . Thank God he made it through ! Now on to security .
When he got to security , he was informed they needed to do an in dept search on him ! ( You guessed it , They Lady at the counter got pissed off and had security do this ) Thank God , Rob has a sense of humor ! He stood there and laughed to himself has they checked everything and swapped it all .
He finally made it to the gate and on to Kentucky .
Flying sucks now days !!!!!
