sorry to everyone who reads this
blog regularly. i apologize for
being such a slacker over the
last month or so…but i’d like you
to know that i’m back!!!
so here are a few random things that
have happened since we last talked:
i am on vacation from work. i had the
space open for a friend to come visit,
but it would not work, so here i am with
13 days of no work and no out-of-town
guests.
the vaca started on monday. i was in a tired,
yet awake coma after i woke on monday
afternoon (3pm) i slept 4 hours in 48 the
previous 2 days. (i think).
i tried to figure it out at work while
trying not to fall asleep on sunday night.
i did it to myself, so i’m not complaining.
i played all day saturday and acted like i
didn’t have to work that night hoping that
i’d be called off. i was not and i did have to
work. then sunday is church and everyone
has to eat lunch right? …2pm sun. afternoon
is when the 4 hours of sleep happened,
then back to work for 12ish more hours
of eyelid-propping torture. it’s all over
now and i’m well rested, so don’t worry!
i’m enjoying my days off so far.
i had a golf lesson yesterday, i’m going
out with some friends to see a band
tonight (which band i don’t know, but
i’ll let you know later), going to a UH
tennis match in a few minutes and hope
to do something fun with weekend.
aside from all the fun-having i expect
over the next 12 days i have set some
goals for my time.
*start reading Tim Keller’s new book
(it was a b-day gift from meg and kari jo. thanks!!)
*blog-i went to the big island two weeks
ago and need to fill you in on the wonderful
times had there…and oh, the pictures!!!
*catch up on emails
*make some phone calls
(the above two are related…i have some
catching up to do with friends)
*oil change and deep cleaning of my little poni
(my dad would/should be proud)
*have some solid reflection time and
extra bible reading.
*make peanut butter
*write some thank you noted
*have a bbq at heidi’s super sweet pad
(she doesn’t know this plan yet…but
she’ll love it!)
here are some more random things
you may or may not want to know about:
- i had a small house fire today. some
food-goo on the foil covering the bottom
of the oven lit on fire…big flames. but
i kept my cool and transferred the flaming
foil to the sink with a spoon (it was the first
thing i grabbed) and turned the water on it.
out and smoking in no time.
-my little poni is having some minor
problems. her horn is broken…she is
silent and her voice is heard no more.
and her passenger side window is
broken. it won’t roll up! it’s stuck
down. i have taped it up in place,
but it won’t stay. i’m going to need
some male assistance for the next
attempt.
-julie and i have a moth colony living
in our apt. i sucked them all ( about 8-
12 little moths) up with the vacuum
(i give kj credit for teaching me
everything i know about sucking
things up in a vacuum. if it’s gross
and you don’t want to touch it…suck it
up!!!) but today more came back and i
have the vacuum out again.
-our fish are all still alive.
-julie and i read price caspian together
in prep for the movie that is to his
theatres in may. did i ever tell you how
many times i saw the first chronicles of
narnia movies on the big screen? you
don’t want to know. i’m a B I G fan.
julie and i squealed with delight at
certain points in the book as we read
it aloud to one another. we re-read
sveral passages hanging on to every
word. you have to love that c.s. lewis!!
