Tuesday Adventures

Monday being the 4th of July, we didn't meet, but we did get together on Tuesday to work on the random assortment of things that have become the Focus Month. :)

We did some research at the library, went to Wal Mart to get a few supplies - and proceeded to pay nearly all in ones, that one of the girls very patiently fed into the self check-out machine, one after another, after another...

We went to the park to talk to someone about a possible fundraiser for this weekend (the money will go towards a care package for women who are coming out of sex trafficking) and then headed to a craft store to get ideas for another fundraiser (this one will go towards a well or clean water project).

By the time we were finished at the stores, it was time to head of in non-Focus Month related directions. I had to laugh, though, because one of the girls, who showed up mid-day, after returning from a family trip, told us, "My mom was trying to convince me to stay home and take a nap. And, as I was telling her that I had to come, I realized that I sounded sort of addicted to this."

There are worse things to be addicted to!
