The Pine Wood Derby 2007
The annual Pine Wood Derby was held this past Saturday. This year we ended up making cars for all of the kids. Here they are from our youngest son's "Z-Mobile" clear down to our oldest son's bobsled!
The races went very well and moved along without a lot of interruptions in between. We came ho…
Movies With Political Agendas
So have YOU heard about the new documentary movie by Alexandra Pelosi called "Friends of God"? Yes, she is the daughter of the new Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi! I have not seen it as of yet, but if I get a chance I will! I have done a lot on online investigating and researching concerning t…
The President Was Near!
Yesterday, President Bush visited a new hospital located about 10 minutes away from our house. This new hospital located in Lee's Summit, Missouri is one of only a few in the nation that have gone totally digital. Here in Kansas City, I have noticed an increase in the use of Digichart and other d…
Receiving
This morning, the Lord reminded me of something that I think we can all stand to hear. It has to do with "receiving". The image I saw in the Spirit when thinking about this was like in baseball when someone tosses you the ball... it's up to YOU to catch it. You don't have to catch things that …

Temporarily Out of Order
Still Recovering
The snow hit us over the weekend and I would say here at our house, we received about 4 inches. The roads were not too bad, but because there was still ice on the ground (before the snow), some churches in the area canceled Sunday services.
Today most of the family is lying around sick... ST…
An Event Remembered
Is it the Best Day Ever? That Depends....
Paperwork Day
A Quick Hello
Today my family is still battling the flu, fevers, etc. and 'ol Mom is about wiped out! So, rather than go into a discussion today, I will spend my time in prayer for those battling sickness or other diseases- including my own family. I have received several e-mails in the past few days concernin…
Hijacking "Religion"
Last night as I was folding a load of laundry, I was able to catch the final few minutes of one of my favorite shows, "Glenn Beck". One of his points for the evening dealt with the recent activities of a so-called Christian who was charged with murdering an abortion doctor all in the name of "God".…
Monday Madness
It's been a frenzy of a day here at the big Weiss house. Grades are due in this week and in the wake of most of the children having the flu last week, we are trying to get caught up on some missed tests. Some of the kids are still battling fevers, chills, and sore throats. Even Peter came down w…

Winter Returns Today... and What STINKS??
What a busy day today. We were up early preparing for the daily chores/errands that must be completed before the dreaded ice storm hits KC. My husband and I had to go pick up our truck this morning (that has been sitting by my in-laws house for sale) due to the approaching ice. Not only did we …
Friends
Following my prayer time this morning, I decided that my heart was set on journaling about friends and what they mean to our lives. Yesterday, I noticed that when I logged onto my website, the focus verse was all about having friends by showing yourself friendly. Later in the day, a friend sent …
Lessons from Obituaries
This morning, my husband came home with the local paper and told me that one of the barbers that used to cut his hair (especially when he was in high school) had passed away. The man was only 68 years old! I don't know about you, but that doesn't seem very old to me. He worked in a simple shop w…
When Anxiety Attacks
Your heart begins to race, your chest tightens up, your throat closes off, your heart pounds, you can feel your pulse in your hands, feet, and neck, you can't breathe.... anxiety attacks.
I don't know if you've ever experienced anxiety attacks or not, but recently... I have.
No one knows definitive…
Happy to be Back to the Grindstone!
