<\/a>— 1 —<\/strong><\/p>\n Daniel’s school situation is messed up.<\/strong> I’d prefer not to go into it in detail here because this is a public blog so if you want details, just email me. <\/a>— 2 —<\/strong><\/p>\n I’m currently editing a book of devotions for a friend of Jon’s family.<\/strong> I’m grateful that my mother-in-law went through and standardized everything so all I have to do is type, cut n’ paste, and format. It’s not professional by any stretch of the imagination but it’s fulfilling a dream of theirs so I’m happy to help.<\/p>\n <\/a>— 3 —<\/strong><\/p>\n I’m breaking my stance on keeping my mouth shut on politics for this take only.<\/strong> You know a candidate is deserving of the “liar liar pants on fire” label when almost every Republican on your Twitter<\/a> (and I have many) as well as FOX News comments on how completely blatant the lies in Paul Ryan’s speech were<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/a>— 4 —<\/strong><\/p>\n “The Big Bang Theory” was pre-empted for Mitt Romney’s speech.<\/strong> RNC, you suck!!! And yes, I’d totally be saying this if President Obama was pre-empting it. Nobody messes with my shows, darn it!!!! I will be so happy when the stupid election is over so I can watch actual TV instead of Netflix<\/a> and endless loops of “Winnie the Pooh”. There is one small benefit to being a very blue part of a blue state: I’ve seen only a handful of political ads outside of the primary season and the ones during the Olympics. Unfortunately, that’s probably going to change in a few days.<\/p>\n <\/a>— 5 —<\/strong><\/p>\n I’m planning to cut my hair tomorrow.<\/strong> Why is this newsworthy? It’s been 5 months (not purposely) and I’d like to get back to chin-length hair instead of looking like I’m 12 with my shoulder-length hair now. Well… either looking like I’m 12 or giving off the hippie vibe. Not that the last one is a problem. Nooooooo…<\/p>\n <\/a>— 6 —<\/strong><\/p>\n Daniel has Tuesday off next week in addition to Monday (Labor Day).<\/strong> Apparently, it’s an in-service day for teachers. As Jon’s craziest day as a pastor is Tuesday (go figure!), Daniel and I might head to the zoo<\/a> as he’s not going to stay quiet if I go to Morning Prayer.<\/p>\n <\/a>— 7 —<\/strong><\/p>\n My little cousin Sarah is now at the OTHER school in Washington<\/a> so there has started to be some major trash-talking over Facebook<\/a> on game days.<\/strong> So far, the discussion has included comments on purple and gold being better colors than the OTHER school’s colors and how we can’t wait for the Apple Cup this year. (I’m seriously expecting Jessica<\/a> to comment on this one. :p)<\/p>\n For more Quick Takes, visit Jen at ConversionDiary.Com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" — 1 — Daniel’s school situation is messed up.

Apparently, I used the right three words yesterday while screaming at<\/del> speaking with the school district (again, email me if you want details) so he’ll be back with his old (and VASTLY superior) teacher starting Wednesday when they come back from a 4-day weekend. I’m glad this is fixed because it was making me physically ill.<\/p>\n
