Friday Fragments is hosted by Half Past Kissin' Time for bloggers to post a list of short things on their minds that aren't really enough for a whole post. It's been quite a week so I have more than usual this week:
Favorite Reads
Gerard's favorite read in May is Keep Quiet by Lisa Scottoline.

Money
This must be the year of spending for us. So far:$ 500 dental cleaning for our cat (Manny) close to $500
$ 1,000 New computer, 3 yr. virus protection & 3 yr. technical support (used tax refund and money gifts for this though)
$ 600 Car Repairs
$20,000 2012 Ford Escape (paid from savings so that's what we were saving for)
When is it going to be a year for savings again?
New Class
I've been teaching just the 5th grade boys in Sunday School but for the summer, I will have the 5th grade girls too! Should be interesting. Sort of looking forward to it but a bit anxious because I will be using material I haven't used before so will have to start from scratch every week.Sports Camp
Last year I volunteered to be a head basketball coach and blue shirt worker for the Parma Heights Baptist Church FOCUS Sports Camp (Focus on Christ Using Sports) and this year I volunteered again to be a basketball coach for both morning and afternoon sessions. I requested being an assistant coach but will be a head coach if needed. We'll see what happens--trusting God to give me the stamina and strength I'll need. We are still short of volunteers for all the sports: flag football, cheerleading, volleyball, soccer and basketball. Registration ends June 5.Share this:

There are years that you just spend. We had one last year and we've had a couple big expenses this year. It just happens and that's what savings is for indeed. I still can't imagine them not fixing those brakes though. They sold you an unsafe vehicle.
Have a fabulous day. Scritches to the babies.
Sometimes it seems that the money keeps going out the door but everything was for something necessary so hopefully the savings can start once again. Sounds like it might be a busy summer for you!
