Hey,
I am still suffering from hangovers from a horrific migraine last night, so this is going to be short. My weekend was pretty hectic.... Friday... I met with my book club, it was only me and Dee.... the others couldn't be there. But we sat at the Atlanta Bread Company for three hours. We had a good time talking about the book and life in general. It was good... I am excited to go to our next get together which is in two weeks and this time everyone will be there....there are five of us. We are reading a summer of William Faulkner novels along with Oprah....yes I am personal friends with Oprah and see is in my book club. Just Kidding. We are following Oprah's book club that she has started....the books for the summer are As I Lay Dying, The Sound and the Fury, and A Light in August. So far the first one is pretty good.
Saturday, was the CH2ROME pool party. I got up at seven to clean the pool and the house. I did all that work and it was just Mark and myself until around 6 and then Jennifer and James showed up. We did have a good time...but it would of been nice if we had better participation. However, we grilled out some steaks which were delicious and I made some baked potatoes.....so at least we got a good meal out of it. :~)
Sunday, was Father's Day.... Happy Father's Day to all you fathers out there. I spent the day with Zach. So this year I was his momma and daddy on those special holidays. My poor parents have always been stuck on the road. I had a lot of fun. I have never played Frisbee before, and when I got there Zach and Clay wanted to play. Clay is really good at it. He could throw it straight to me without me having to move every time. I on the other hand could not. I need someone to show me the proper technique....Clay tried...but I still didn't get it. I even started to throw at Zach instead of Clay cause I told him I felt bad that he had to keep chasing after my frisbees but I didn't care if Zach did....he needs the workout. (He has gained another five pounds on top of the 30 he has already gained....I told him he needs to watch out before he ends up looking like the rest of us Terrells) Zach wasn't too much better than I was...I kept joking with Clay about getting stuck with the Terrell's and how you can tell that Zach and I were related from the way we were throwing the frisbee...Clay's a good guy so he was a prefect gentleman...instead of getting mad about chasing our frisbees he just made fun of us.The meeting was really good last night as well....Larry (leader at NLB) talked about how fathers give stability and about our relationships with our fathers. Some people had some major breakthroughs...Hallelujah.... When I left Zach's my parents called and were at the McDonough Walmart passing through town....they had some time to kill because they were ahead of schedule so they decided to stop and wait on me and go catch something to eat. So I did get to see my father a little bit on Father's Day. However, I had that horrible migraine... I ended up getting sick in the Waffle House bathroom...but at least it made my head feel better. But, I wasn't much company for my parents. So, they went back on the road when we got done eating and I went home and passed out.
Keep Zachary in your prayers....he had to write about what his long term goals are and God has been telling him to continue with the year leadership course that NLB offers and then also to do the college work of a christian counselor that they offer, as well. God has already told him these things and wouldn't ever show him any further. So Zach pleaded with God to show him somthing beyond the NLB campus....and God was telling him that he couldn't show him exactly what he would be doing because it is not time to know...however he told Zach that he needs to stick on getting his counseling certificate and that he will need it because Zach is to go back to his home church (Glad Tidings) and work with the church and youth. So, that is what Zach is working towards. However, just to show how Satan works...after a couple of days of hearing God say all that to him...Zach has started to really doubt himself and his capabilities of doing all that....so please keep him in your prayers and lift him up. Zach realizes that it's just Satan trying to steal what God has in store for him but he needs prayer to help him have the strength and also the protection (NLB is a huge spiritual battle ground and Zach is open to a lot of demonic spirits coming through there) that he needs.
Hope everyone is having a wonderful day. Please keep my friend Dori in your prayers today...she is having a difficult time at her job...can't go into details, but please lift her up in prayer and ask God to give her the strength to endure what she is going through. Thank you. Love you. Talk at ya later. So much for this being short. :~)

I don't know if your site is associated with xanga, but they've been working on it & no one has been able to check comments/leave comments since Thursday! Its very frustrating. I can post entries though which is strange. But I think I'm finally able to check comments since it just let me check yours. I'll post some pics tonight or tomorrow because today I have a Father's Day tribute up, I know its late but with the xanga maintanace going on & I had to babysit or should I say WATCH Jay's BOYS Saturday night. So its been a busy/too quick wked. The construction crew didn't come Friday & they didn't come today, but they said they would be here first thing tomorrow! I'm getting frustrated with that also because I'm having to keep everything clean & away from the windows, which isn't easy with TWO kids!! Alright, sorry about all those headaches I'll be praying for you.
Hey Hot Momma!!!
I really enjoyed seeing you today as well, we will have to do that more often.I don't get xanga, I am really upset with the whole situation and I think I might switch to blogger, I don't know yet... I am going to go now so I can watch the OC Shane is still not home yet and I am LOVING THAT!! I hope you had a good day and that tomorrow will be even better..."expect great things and great things will come your way" (I am totally loving the Joel Osteen book that I am reading, that phrase came from the book.) Call me whenever you get a free minute. I love you!!!

Aunt Sonya i was wondering if u could stay with me this thursday thru sunday at my house mom and dad are going out of town and i wanted u to come and stay with me if u want to
Nope hadn't posted yet! My dad is currently reading my site for the past 3 days. He said it was alot to read so he is only reading it little by little. But I'll post tonight, hopefully with some pics. I'm so jealous if you go to paiges this weekend. I do miss doing that. We would have so much fun! Did you know that Stephen already has a blog? He doesn't go on it much anymore because after a few days no one would visit so he figured he couldn't break anyone from the habit of reading his xanga instead of the blog. I don't remember the name you'd have to ask him. But he was so proud of it. We're coming in on Friday. I think the tentitive plan is to eat out with everyone on Sunday afternoon but I haven't gotten our "schedule" cleared through the motherboard, you know? I don't have your number so we can either just continue to converse through here or you can call.
Oh I never got your answer on whether you've read that Cashelmara book? I'm smack in the middle of it now & can't put it down! I've actually not been on xanga because I've been staying up til 1am reading! Anyway I'll read ya later!
MUCH LOVE
Hey, Sonya!!! I'm just trying to get around and comment to everyone but I'm really getting sleepy so I may have to finish tomorrow. I'm really glad Zach is doing so well in the program. It's hard to believe that it's more intense than Teen Challenge because it's pretty intense. It's a minimum 15 month program and it is affiliated with the AG. I'm glad you got to spend the day with him on Father's Day. Why do your parents travel so much? Several times you've mentioned that they were on the road. I would hate that. I think I might like it for the first 2 or 3 weeks but after that it would get old. By the way, I didn't do all of that stuff by 11am. I worked on it while xanga was down Friday and Saturday. I would have had to get up really early to get all that done by 11am. Anyway, I hope you're having a great week!!!
