Go With The Flow
So I believe I told you in my last post that I was supposed to go to church Saturday night and then out to dinner at The Joint with MissionLab for Jeremy's birthday. Well plans change, at least for me. Everybody else went and did the plan and even saw Jason Lee at the joint! CRAZY! I, on the other hand, got stopped by Joel and Jonathan on my way out, and their families had both gone away for the weekend and neither one of them had a car. I volunteered to not go with the group and hang with them and go to church in the morning. We went to Winn Dixie and picked up stuff for dinner. We went back to Krista and Josh's apartment (Our director and husband, and Joel is Josh's brother but they were gone for the weekend). I cooked dinner for the boys. I made shrimp alfredo!! It was actually very good to be honest. We also had brownies and garlic bread. Jonathan and I wanted to watch Harry Potter, but Joel didn't. We won and got to watch it! Afterwards Jonathan left, and Joel and I did the dishes. He then made me watch some show about gangs in New Orleans. That was quite scary to be honest. We then watched one about the klan that was pretty good. Those peeps be crazy also. After all of that we went to bed. Sunday morning I woke up with a killer ear ache so I went back to bed till 1:30!! I woke up with my ear still throbbing. I needed groceries from walmart, and medicine now as well so I text Joel to see if he, or Jonathan, needed to go. They did, and Hannah came with us as well. We went to Walmart, and I finally got groceries!! Yummy yummy!! After that we went by tbell and then back for staff meeting/devo. We normally meet our MissionLab Sunday nights, but this time we only met with the leaders which turned out to be fine. The problem was that the youth minister has had the study material since March, and they didn't prepare for anything. Ideally the MissionLab are supposed to teach crafts and afternoon bible study. We are all being very flexible though and we are doing everything. My MissionLab this week have been absolutely awesome so far though! My kids are being awesome this week as well. I think they've finally figured out that we are not going to stop what we are doing just because of a couple of people's bad attitudes. Granted, there are still some attitude issues, but not nearly as much. This week we are talking about Daniel who is my absolute favorite!! He is so wonderful, and tomorrow we are talking about the fiery furnace, and for music we are singing "Burn Us Up" by Shane and Shane!! LOVE IT SO MUCH!! I also got a letter from Bethany today which made my day!! It included Justin Bieber stickers as well. I went to LifeWay during my break with no intention of buying anything, but I ended up buying a devotional type thing for movie lovers. It looks really awesome and I plan on starting it tonight. I also went to Barnes and Noble tonight and finally bought the book "Calm My Anxious Heart" by Linda Dillow. I am stoked about starting this book! I've only heard good things! Continue praying for us as a staff because some of us have very "GBC'' (great big challenges). I have been very lucky not to have any as bad as others so praise be to God! I have kind of been in awe of God this week because I still can't believe I have the opportunity to be doing what I'm doing. I can never say it enough that I know that camp is where I should be. I'm so tired, but it is ALWAYS worth it. Thanks God! :)
