Feeling a bit like Supermom right now, as I spent the better part of this evening making 60 cupcakes for Auggie’s Valentine’s Day party at preschool tomorrow. Chocolate and vanilla. With chocolate sour cream frosting at first, which Auggie nixed promptly. Leading to chocolate butter cream frosting for the majority of the cupcakes. Topped with a candy conversation heart. Oh yeah, I got it. And, to top it all off, they are peanut-free, baby!
So we had our first Financial Peace University class last week. It went so well, that I’m still processing it all, frankly. I don’t know what I was expecting. I suppose that I automatically think that everyone is as cynical as me and instantly views anything earnest or “bettering” with suspicion. (This sucks in so many ways, you don’t need to tell me. I’m working on it.)
Anyway, everyone laughed at the jokes during the video. They even did the audience participation stuff! And then the discussion time was awesome, with most everybody chiming in. Tim’s only critique was to talk about ourselves less, which I will try to do next week. I guess the most difficult thing for me was leading the discussion while knowing that I was pretty much the youngest person there. I’m no expert on personal finance, that’s for sure, but I have been paying attention to Dave Ramsey for a very long time.
I hope I don’t mess anything up, or offend someone or something. That’s my biggest fear.
