Where has the time gone?

Current music playing- Opening instrumental sequence for Unbreakable : )
Current mood- content in all facets
Current word- Disquieted (sometimes when I hear a word, it will ring in my head over and over until I find the definition of it)

As you can easily see, it has been a few days or more since I have updated this bad boy. Life has been a whirlwind of busyness for the last few weeks. I cannot even attempt to capture everything that has happened. Nothing bad I do assure you however, no news is good news. So much has happened since Good Friday and it would be torture for me to tell you of everything so I will have you look forward with me.

This summer is going to be one of my busiest summers of my life. I will be working, hopefully two jobs- one at the daycare and I am looking for a part time nanny position. (I know, working with more kids, what can I say? I love them) I do not have a lot of hours at the daycare right now and as much as I wish it wouldn't be a problem, I need a new car and I am taking part of a missions trip in a little over a month.

This missions trip is to Manitoulin Island (across the lake at the Sleeping Bear Dunes) in Canada to put on a VBS for an Indian tribe. I am not going to lie, I am absolutely thrilled about this trip. We will be, you'll never guess, working with kids....oh the shock of such an omission! I have been wanting to go on a missions trip since I left Jamiaca back in my graduating year of 2007! This trip has been such a God thing and I cannot wait to go on it! Right now I am preparing for it by being the group secterary, which I truly love. One of my weirdest nerd qualities is I love taking on the role of secterary. I love making copies, organizing papers, and taking notes...all that stuff!

Leading up the trip I am taking two classes- Nutrition (Tuesdays / Thursdays 8:00am-11:55am) and Sociology (Mondays / Wednesdays 12:30-4:00) starting tomorrow. I am truly excited honestly, I did some research on my professors and they had phenemonal reviews. Annndd maybe to have a right to complain and reason to get another job, I found out I will be travelling something like 200 miles for class for the next months. Yay. Especially with this gas prices our president of change increased...by change maybe he's hoping will trade in our cars for tennis shoes since soon we will be walking everywhere. Haha. Small minor rant. ; ) The nice thing is the classes end two days before the trip and everything else that I have going on this summer.

I am of course working in VBS as well. For the sencond year I will be serving in VBX, the ministry for upcoming sixth graders. We have a stellar team that I am so excited to work along side with. Along with talking about VBX, this summer I have been asked to start teaching in Ignite on Wednesday nights. I have taken the awesome responsiblity and I start next week. Amazingly enough this Last minute Lucy who writes this blog has already written a rough outline of her lesson which is The Great Commission. Ohh...I gotta come up with a title. The Great Commission not for the fainthearted. Haha...we'll see!

There's more this summer will be filled with but I should go now. Currently I am housesitting and I should do some cleaning. Last night I had some friends over (with the permission of the owners) and we had a M. Night Shymalan marathon. The dead people, unbreakable heros, the creepy aliens, those we don't speak of but tend to speak of a lot, and the pale water lady all lasted us till about five o'clock this morning. It seemed we had a competition who's energy could go all night. Yours truly just started to fade at like three in the morning in the middle of Lady In The Water. Someone had asked if I was sleeping, I replied no but dozed off shortly after for a sencond. Ben holds the award for staying wide awake the entire time however, he cheated. His job during the winter entails him to be awake midnight through early the next morning. If it probably would have not been Sunday night, I could have done it without so much a blink. ; )
