Sick and Tired

I complain a lot. I know I do, and while I try not to...well, it just happens.

My church choir was invited by a gentleman who conducts Michael W. Smith's concert, to sing in a concert with him at Carnegie Hall on January 26th. I was beyond excited. I mean, I have never been to NYC before, and to sing with MWS at Carnegie Hall, is a dream come true. Well...it is exactly that. A dream. It won't come true, unless God intervenes here. The trip is a whopping $1095. That is not including the airfare, which could be at least $400. Well...I don't work. I can't because I have no childcare for my kids, and Brian's days are so unpredictable....so I am shtuck. Our church is not sponsoring the event, so Idk if they'll let us have any fundraisers. I know I am not the only one who doesn't have the means to go...but I am super hurt and disappointed.

I am over being unhappy. I am over being miserable. Idk how, just yet, but I will find childcare, and get back out there and work. But anyway...enough of this. I am going to see if I can find a couple of books on the library's website for my Kindle. Good night.

All I Can Say...is "Wow!"

So, after a week from you-know-where, of moving and everything, I got some absolutely awesome, <i>awesome</i> news. I sing with my church, Southeast Christian's choir. I absolutely love it, and while I joined later in the season, I am finally starting to see that it isn't just a once a week rehearsal-perform once a month gig.</p>
<p>This weekend, we performed during the services. Right before our last one, which was at the 11:15 Sunday service, we were told that we were asked by Michael W. Smith's people to be his background choir, and perform with him at Carnegie Hall in NYC! How <i>awesome</i> is that?! I am so excited. We have some serious fundraising to do, as it's not cheap to go there
