This past week was the worst that I've had this semester, but Friday morning was the beginning of a fun weekend! At 8:45am an adult lady (and new friend) came to visit me at Smith/Adams desk to deliver homemade curry (for my lunch), lemon bunt cake (for dessert), and an encouraging card. The whole ordeal lifted my spirits!
Friday night I finished the LOST marathon of season three with some friends and lasagna. yum! I wonder who's funeral it was? Why does Jack want to go back? Did our hobbit friend really drown? What has the "heavy-eyeliner hostile" been doing on the island all of this time, and why has he not grown older? Whose boat is coming in 18 hours? When will Kate simmer down with the boys? When will Juliet, Ben, and Locke die? - I don't like them. What's the deal with the feared and mysterious Jacob? How come the pirate always resurrects? How many more seasons are there? Goodness.
Saturday included an enjoyable time with the family and lots of coffee, a debriefing of the Private I's crime investigation, tea and Ultimate Frisbee with friends, Moody Weekend Sing Song practice, Guitar Hero, and Cities and Knights Catan.
Today was Mom's birthday, and in her honor, our Bible class had a pot-luck. The fam had a low-key, but love-filled, birthday party. Then we had Bible Bowl practice, during which there was an exciting distraction! The house right next to Southern Hills was burning! The kids went crazy at the sight of flames and smoke through the window at such a close distance! We ate snacks and watched a great show of firemen coming to the rescue, youth and children ministers running and moving the buses, and fire and smoke filling the sky! And now, I am reclining on a couch, playing Catan, and snuggled in a warm blanket with cozy slippers. All in all, it has been a nice weekend.
