Blargh

I'm right there with you, Rach. Me and blogging haven't been friends as of late, and I don't even know why. I guess it's mainly because I have a ton of stuff going on, and blogging is by far my last priority. But I enjoy it...*sigh*.

So this has already been a super long week, and it's only Thursday. I love the fact that my brother (Jim) and his youth group are in town, but it's kinda taking over our week. Because it's a good thing, I'm trying really hard not to get stressed out about it, but it's not working very well. I was awake for more than 17 hours yesterday. Seriously? *Sigh AGAIN*. And the weekend is going to be pretty much the same. Although, it's filled with good things, so once again, I'm trying. Last night was actually really great. Paul and I got to have dinner with the group at Jim 'N Nick's in Southside, and we got to see my brother in his element. We had "group time" after dinner where he was asking them about their expectations - of the trip, of themselves, of God, etc. All of the kids participated, and you can tell that some of them are really thinking about things. After we got to pray for them, Jim told them to say goodbye to us, and a whole group of girls came over to hug me. (Sniff, sniff...) I dislike highschoolers because they're stupid, but this was awesome.

Tomorrow I'm working 6-3, and then going to Sam's Club to shop for food. Have I mentioned yet that I'm feeding 20 or more people on Sunday? Yeah. That's a lot of food. And then we're getting up early on Saturday to go white water (is that supposed to be one word?) rafting with the kiddies. That will be an all-day adventure as well. Then a packed out church service on Sunday, and lunch. It's going to be good, but I may just pass out on Sunday night. You can just imagine what my to-do list looks like this week...lol...

Anyway - random bits - I still haven't heard anything about the job (hopefully either tomorrow or Monday); Paramore is an amazing band and they write amazing songs, and I cannot get them out of my head; I miss my girls!; pray for the Lain's!

As a girl who doesn't know for sure if she is one of "my girls" I want to say I miss you! I expect Shana told you the news... sigh. I'm sad and I went to the grocery store and cried down every aisle and spent $300. On food. For my family of 4.

Whoa. That's weird. How did I get signed in as Dave this morning?

Okay, so, FINALLY the word verification thing loads correctly... my computer has been doing something weird.

Anyway, I hope you're having a good weekend! I'm praying for your busy-ness. I love you!
