Tuesday:
In every life a little rain must fall. Today it poured. When preparing for my trip I told some that "I don't mind going, it's the leaving I don't like." today it was more like "it's not being there that's the issue, it's me missing it" Today was my best friends birthday and I was a bit down and homesick. As any other person would I stuck myself in the house all day trying to get over my gloom with a good book and some comfort food. It worked a little but my cloud still hung over my head... so there isn't too much to report for the day. God stayed with me till the end however and made my lonliness a place of comfort to spend with my Father.
Wednesday:
Jill Nerheney the community coordinator I've been working with has been putting me with a different community group each day that I work with her. Usually they all do the exact same talk, the same interesting fact (that become not so interesting after the 3rd time) the same walkthrough, and the same pointing out things that are trivial to my existence there. BUT, today I went to the Highbury House and they put me to work!!!! How overjoyed it felt to be doing something and contributing. It wasn't life changing work or anything like that but it was work that shaved a lot of time of their schedules which made it all worth while. Then I was back to the office to work on computers until it was time for my new bible study which I really enjoyed. We talked about how you can worship God through secular music.
Thursday.. aka.. .. Today.
Another community house.. another talk... another walk around...
BUT!!! I helped Nerheny with a display for the kids we dressed up manicans as Goofy and Donald Duck (only after I had run around the office in the costumes ofcourse!). It was a lot of fun!!! Jill always entertains me. More computer work and then back home to rest for the really busy upcoming couple of days.
Life away from home isn't necessarily hard.. but it is tiring so I wish you all a happy day/night/evening whichever cause I'm going to bed!!
love to all!
