On Saturday morning, the three of us woke up early, made some coffee, bought some donuts and headed to Brackett Field to watch the planes take off and enjoy a coolish morning before the crazy heat came later in the day. It was a nice morning out of the house and I did a little bit of writing too.
The rest of the day consisted of trying to stay cool inside(we actually turned the air on so it wasn't super bad) because it was 101 degrees. Yuck! I spent a lot of time reading and writing and other various things. I need to be better disciplined about painting more as well.
On Sunday, after two days, mom and I(dad helped a little too) finished a 1000 piece puzzle(and later started another one just as big). The first one was cute and fairly easy compared to the new one we are working on. Will post a picture much later once we finish it.
Yesterday morning, mom and I went to Barnes and Noble and sat and read magazines for an hour and a half or so. There were some cool artsy/crafty magazines that I got a few interesting ideas from. Afterwards we went over to In n Out for lunch!! It tasted so good! I haven't had it in four months so it was quite delicious. Last night I went to the college group where we talked about witnessing, how to do it effectively, what not to do, how we feel about it and all that goes along with it. It was a very practical talk that should be spoken about more frequently. How many believers reading this feel a little apprehensive about the idea of witnessing? Maybe that's not the right word. Maybe just scared? Yep... But we're all called to be witnesses, so why aren't we doing it more often? Ugh conviction Haha. Something to think about and practice.
After the group was over, I came home and we waited for Colie and Ricky to get in from Brazil. Their flight got in super early so we headed out but traffic on the freeway was stopped and turns out they were closing all the lanes! We got off and went to next freeway but traffic was stopped there as well with the three left lanes closed. We got off the freeway again, I used a disgusting gas station bathroom and finally we were back on track again. Strangely enough, we ended up getting to the airport at the perfect time and picked up Colie and Ricky. They told stories in the car. There's something about those car rides after someone arrives home from a trip. The feel in the car as they share their experiences or just get used to being back in LA again. I like it. (Not LA, the feel)
We got back late and by the time I went to bed it was 2 in the morning. Woo! I slept in until the crazy dogs woke me up as they barked at the mail man. Otherwise I probably could have slept til noon! We had a yummy breakfast, eggs, biscuits and gravy, and fruit. The morning was spent watching the Olympics and hanging out.
Hopefully I will be posting another blog soonish with something more interesting than the everyday life stuff.
