Chicago Trip Cancelled

Just wanted to let you know that the bus trip to Chicago has been cancelled due to low turnout. I regret that we will not be going but hopefully this still gives you enough time to make other arrangements. Hope you all have a great weekend!

Bus Trip

We still have plenty of spots left for the trip to Chicago. If you are planning to go, please sign up at the church. There is a sign up sheet as well as an envelope for you to leave your money in at the office. If we don't get enough people to go, we'll have to cancel so please, if you're planning on going, get your name on the list so we can get plans made. Thank you!

Free Kitten

I have a cousin who had a kitten dropped off at her house but she is allergic and looking for a good home. Apparently someone went around the neighborhood and dropped off a whole litter to several different houses. She said this kitten is approx. 12 weeks old and is very tame. Walks in the house like she owns the place and loves attention. If you are interested, please leave a comment on this post. Thanks!

Longaberger

Are you in need of something from Longaberger but don't know a consultant. Well, Abbie Louvar is currently a consultant but is going to be closing out soon so contact her at alouvar@comcast.net or call her at 399-6404.

How many hats do you wear?

Do you ever feel like you've got way too many hats on your head? You know, the mommy hat, the chef hat, the career hat, the wife hat. I'm sure if we all had a hat to symbolize all the "things" we take care of in a day, we would see that we just can't physically handle or wear all of them at one time. Take time to reflect on all that goes on in a day in YOUR life. We all wear a lot of hats, it's how we wear them that matters! Journal about it and try to think about ways you can reduce some stress.

If you missed our October 2 meeting, we talked about the hats we wear in life. We discussed which ones we enjoy wearing and the ones we'd rather trade in for a better or newer hat. It was great to hear from other moms that also feel like the stack of hats gets higher and higher and how we can learn to take our hats off from time to time and just relax.

Don't miss out on our next meeting on October 16. We're going to have a spa day! There will be a chocolate fountain, catered breakfast and lots of time to pamper yourself. We'll also have a massage therapist on hand. If you'd like a 10 minute chair massage, please contact Myah St. John for more info. and to reserve a spot. There are only a few left!

Also, our craft will be bath salts, something you can take to make spa day last a little longer in your own home. Bring a small to medium sized jar with a lid so you can create your own salts with your own scents.

Don't forget if you'd like to get in on the babysitting co-op, contact Courtney Dressler.

Our first Mom's Night Out will be held Oct. 20. Meet us at Starbucks on Coliseum for a mocha and some girl time....the fun starts at 7p.m.

If you're not sure where your contact list is, please leave a comment on this site and I'll get in touch with you! Have a great weekend and stay tuned for more MOPS news!
