After we arrived home from Disneyland, I spent the day at appointments on Tuesday and then I worked all day Wednesday and Thursday (13 hour shifts). I was exhausted by Friday. I felt like I have been running for 3 weeks straight (which I have). I really just wanted to sleep all day and bury my head in my pillow and hide out in my dark bedroom. My friend Cecily called a few months ago to ask if Torri and I wanted tickets for Time Out For Women. It sounded like a great idea at the time however, now that it was here I just felt tired and worn out and I really didn't want to go. Torri kept calling me all day trying to give me a pep-talk to get me going. Finally, I decided I tried to have a good attitude about it. It did not disappoint. We had a fabulous time both Friday night and Saturday. We heard from John Bytheway, Dallyn Vail Bayles & Ardeth Kapp the first night. On Saturday we heard from Brad Wilcox, Mercy River and Linda Eyre along with her daughter. We ended up leaving early for family pictures on Saturday but I cannot say enough about how much I enjoyed going. It was exactly what I needed. The theme this year was all about having HOPE. No matter how tough life gets, there is always hope. My bucket has been dry for awhile and it was good to fill it to overflowing with the spirit and feel like I can once again have hope.
