A funk!

I've kind of been in a funk the last week or so. I'm not sure exactly what's wrong. I'm just in a funk, I guess. I just finished a 9 week study on Esther by Beth Moore. It was a fabulous study and I learned a lot. I had done a study by her in the past and HATED IT! I think it was just the wrong study for me with the wrong people. I've avoided Beth Moore studies since then, but I was really glad I finally talked myself into doing another. John and I are still trying to find a church closer to our house, and still haven't really found one. However, I saw that the Sunday School class that we liked at FBC Waxahachie was doing a parenting study. We decided to go to that for the 6 weeks of the study. I've been a little disappointed in it. I thought it was going to be an indepth parenting study, but there is little homework and it is mainly just a video and a discussion every Sunday. It's not bad, just not as in depth as I had hoped. I'm really struggling with parenting right now. I naively assumed that once you had children you were somehow enlightened on how to do everything. I've discovered that that just isn't so-maybe that's where the funk is coming from. I've read several books on discipline already and am still struggling. It's just so hard to know what to do in every situation. I have certainly discovered that my 2 year old definitely has a mind of his own. He's digging in the sandbox right now, and thankfully leaving me to my ramblings. I'm sure the funk will pass in a day or two and I'll go back to the drawing board with all of my frustrations.

On another note, I'm trying to build my CTMH business again. Since the scrapbook retreat isn't going to happen for a while, I thought I'd try to get some stuff going with CTMH. Our Summer catalog comes out May1st. Consultants get to order a month early and I am loving a lot of the stuff in the new catalog. I've already placed an order and hopefully will get it next week. I just need some time to scrap and I'll be set. If you know anyone in the Dallas area or in the Wichita Falls area that would be interested in having a gathering, have them contact me. I'd love to show you and your friends all the great products that CTMH has. Here is a sneak peak at some of the new papers and stamps that are coming out in the Summer book:
