Ketchup

Life has been flying by the last couple weeks. Today I arrived back from a lovely trip across the state of WA to Wenatchee to visit Amanda. We had so much fun, why did we wait so long to connect??? Hopefully we can be more diligent about getting together the rest of this year. It was wonderful to connect with someone my age and who I know already. Great to share battle wounds and trade war stories from the front lines of internship. Best of all was the drive back today through the Cascade Mountains with the fog, rain, snow, sun; it was all there, even gorgeous rushing waterfalls right out the side of the mountain!!! Does it get better than this??

Just got back from a Silvertips Hockey game up in Everett. So much fun! Haven't been to a game in so long and they won to boot! Even managed to slip in a quick post for my online class.

Tomorrow is a marathon day:
--Attempt to get up early to watch the altar guild set up communion
--First service 7:45am
--Teach 9am and 10:30am
--Move furniture in the sanctuary to accommodate band for night service
--Acquire items needed for service
--Unlock lots of doors for people (i.e. play church host even though I don't know where lots of things are)
--Eat lunch
--Take a nap if I'm lucky (most likely not)
--Finish and set up my millennium goal station for the service
--Find last minute volunteers
--Pull off U2charist 6:30-9pm (read, serve communion)
--Clean up sanctuary
--Go to bed at some point after winding down for the day

So totally up for the challenge!
