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!
